Lavender - Make your migraine smell & feel better

June 2005:

"When it comes to research, one of the best herbs for headaches seems to be lavender. Lavender has been used for 200 years to treat various conditions. Today it's one of the most common for headache, when it comes to aromatherapy. It's used to relax, and to treat insomnia, which is important for most headache sufferers. Lavender is also used in various forms to treat some skin conditions such as eczema, though one study recently suggested that the therapeutic effect of massage was helpful with the oil or without.

In some countries, such as France and Germany, lavender is eaten or sipped in tea. As a tea in Germany it has been approved for use for restlessness and stomach irritation, according to a 2002 article at the University of Maryland Medical Center."

My Take:

Sounds interesting. Somebody do some research here, please. I guess I am due to go check it out at my local health-foods store.

Come on lavender, baby. Work for me!
