If you suffer from frequent headaches, you are probably ready to find a way to stop the hurt. Headaches can have many causes: too much thinking, tension, noise, lights, anxiety and stress.
Lavender essential oil is known to help release the tension and pain caused by frequent headaches! This oil can bring deep relaxation and is often used for aromatherapy during meditation. Lavender essential oil is also stress reliever!
There are several ways to release tension and pain caused by your headache by using lavender essential oil alone and in blends. One way is by massaging the temples with a massage blend of oils. Another way is experiencing Aromatherapy through inhalation!

Inhaling Lavender Oil For Headaches Relief
By inhaling the aroma of an essential oil, it affects you in many ways! First, the smells are beneficial by taking your mind to a special place. Second, the tiny chemical elements that make up the molecules of essential oils are absorbed through the nasal membranes and can relax your nervous system, make you feel more alert, help with pain or tension, and improve your mood!
The best method for inhaling essential oils is right out of the bottle: take off the cap, and smell deeply. This method will give you the maximum benefits in the least amount of time.
You can also benefit from adding lavender oil to your diffuser and turning it on in your vicinity. You can also create a diffuser blend with lavender and peppermint for a more potent treatment.
Inhaling lavender essential oil through aromatherapy will not only clear your head and help with your headache, but it will also brighten your mood and create an atmosphere of tranquility!
Roller Bottle Blends With Lavender Oil For Headaches
One of my favorite ways to use essential oils is in a roller bottle: this way they are easy to apply, easy to transport, and will be there when I need them. I get headaches quite often, so I keep on of these in my purse:
- 6 drops of lavender oil
- 6 drops of peppermint oil
- 5 drops of frankincense
- 10 ml roller bottle
- FCO
Add the oils to your bottle, then top off with the fractionated coconut oil and take it with you everywhere.
Now you’re ready to stop headaches with the wonderful lavender oil. Feel better soon!
