Headache Story
A lovely young lady came into the shop today looking for answers. She asked about migraines. She had tried medication, which gave her a rash and less than satisfactory results. I told her that migraines are tricky because there can be so many causes. Hormones, allergies, stress, dehydration, chemical exposure….the list goes on. But in natural medicine, we always want to go to the cause of the problem, and not just slap an herb on the symptom. She knew the cause – STRESS! Ok, so we looked at support for the nervous system and adrenals.
B-Stress is a formula providing B vitamins from FOOD, so they are easily absorbed and used by the body.
Adaptra is a combination of ashwagandha and rhodiola, these herbs help cope with stress, reduce fatigue, and maximize energy.
Magnesium is helpful for so many things: sore muscles, anxious feelings, sleep, and headaches.
Peppermint oil is so cooling and often helps immediately. She had heard it helped with headaches, but had never tried it. I pulled out the tester bottle and she tried a drop rubbed directly onto her forehead, where those stress headaches like to manifest. She sighed, immediately feeling relief. She said, “I can lift my head now.”
I was SO excited for her – we found her solution – the very thing that her body needed! I know she is on her way to better health. So, for the cost of a doctor’s appointment, she found relief that goes to the cause of the problem and will help to prevent more stress headaches.
