Headache Relief Although headaches may be common occurrences and are usually not a symptom of a serious ailment, they’re still very unpleasant to endure. Here is one effective way to ease the tension and feel better when a headache hits.
In a small glass bottle, combine: ¼ oz vodka ¼ oz peppermint essential oil
Wet your fingertips with the blend and firmly massage above each eyebrow while keeping your eyes closed. Relax, inhale the pleasant scent of peppermint, drink water, and repeat. You should feel relief within minutes. Be very careful to avoid contact with eyes since the mixture will burn and sting. In case of eye contact, rinse for 15 minutes with lots of water and apply a wet and cool compress for 30 minutes. Note: Wash your hands well after using peppermint oil, especially before touching food. Since a good quality oil is strong, working with gloves is not a solution as they will tear or dissolve immediately. The scent usually dissipates within thirty minutes of so. Keep out of reach of children.
