Feverfew For Headaches

Close to a billion people around the world suffer from migraines at some point or other in their lives. This neurological condition is characterized by vomiting, severe headaches, nausea and photophobia of varying intensities (sensitivity to any form of light). The resulting pain can last anywhere between one and 72 hours. 75% of migraine sufferers are women. The herb feverfew has been shown to significantly help reduce the occurrence and intensity of these debilitating headaches.

Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) possesses anti-inflammatory properties, making it an excellent choice for migraine relief. In 1633, John Gerard, and English herbalist, declared that feverfew is 'very good for them that are giddie in the head.' A century later, another herbalist, John Hill, noted that 'in the worst headache, this herb exceeds whatever else is known.'

NOTE: Feverfew is one of the herbal ingredients in Pain Away Which helps relieve pain and inflammation while relaxing the nerves, muscle tension and spasms. If this is going to help, it will do so within just a few minutes. It has literally amazed us time and time again as to just how quickly that pain can be totally gone....does not cure anything, but sure is a pain stopper! Has been very effectively used for tooth aches, sinus headaches, migraines, back aches and more. Can also be applied topically to sore muscles. Contains Feverfew, White Willow bark, Valerian, Licorice root, Oatstraw, Ginkgo Leaf, Hibiscus Flower,

Research has shown that migraines can be caused from the imbalance of use of the right and left brain. We also use an essential oil spritz, or applied topically, which seems to help.
