Personal Label Headache Relief Reduces Stress Blend Compound Essential Oil For Massage Aromatherapy Diffuser With High Quality

Offer Headache and Migraine Relief

Headaches are one of the most common pain-related health concerns, affecting up to 75 percent of adults worldwide, according to the Cleveland Clinic. Migraine, a more severe form of headache, affects roughly 12 percent of U.S. adults, according to Johns Hopkins Medicine. Headaches are a major cause of absenteeism from work and school and, as the Cleveland Clinic notes, can lead to feelings of anxiety and depression.

Some people turn to essential oils like peppermint for relief, and there is some very limited research on its use for headaches. According to a review, Peppermint Oil can potentially help ease a headache when applied superficially around the head and temple. This may be due to menthol, the primary active ingredient in peppermint. Menthol has a cooling sensation, which is thought to have an analgesic (pain relieving) effect, according to an uncontrolled study of 25 patients that examined migraine pain severity after applying a 6 percent menthol gel to the pain site. Those with migraine who used the gel saw noteworthy improvements in headache intensity by two hours after application.
