Does lavender essential oil help in easing migraine pain?

I know that lavender eo is good for promoting relaxation as well as Ylang Ylang. I have both of these oils and use them in a light bulb fragrance diffuser in the bedroom to help ease stress from the day. Is lavender good for treating migraine pain? What other oils are there to help do this?Does lavender essential oil help in easing migraine pain?
actually ylang ylang (and other strong floral essential oils) will probably make a headache and/or migraine worse.


but lavender is very beneficial. its not just the scent that promotes relaxation but the chemicals that make it up are natural pain relievers along with several other things (skin care, acne, burns, rashes, soothes muscle aches and pains, helps digestion etc..) you can apply lavender oil, straight from the bottle to your skin (temples, back of neck) and it will be more beneficial


frankincense might also help (but do not apply to the skin, only use in the diffuser) and most citrus oils work well too, (lime, lemon, neroli, tangerine, grapefruit....but only use in the diffuser)Does lavender essential oil help in easing migraine pain?
I would suggest that any strong scent would likely make your migraine worse. Come to think of it, so does the light bulb. Caffeine often helps, as does sleeping.
I use it all the time! just the lavender, Really helped mine
Yes, it helps a great deal. I use it straight.
