I know if several individuals who personally have been attached to their OTC medications for headaches.  Since everyone has different causes of headaches and different body chemistry,  the oils that help them find relief from headaches may vary.  These are only suggestions of essential oils that might help – Many essential oils have wonderful anti-inflammatory properties which might alleviate pressure. When applying oils to the temples be sure to keep them away from the eyes.  Single oils that might be helpful include:  Peppermint which is very cooling and anti-inflammatory, wintergreen, lavender, copaiba, valerian, chamomile (Roman & German), clove, rosemary, Eucalyptus globulus. I know if individuals who use Lemon oil on the big toe – which in reflexology is connected with the brain.  You can consult your Essential Oils Desk Reference for the full Reflexology Chart.

Young Living has several blends of oils that might be useful for managing a headache:  M-Grain (marjoram,lavender,peppermint,basil,Roman chamomile, helichrysum)  Brain Power (frankincense,sandalwood,melissa,cedarwood,blue cypress,lavender,helichrysum) Clarity, Deep Relief Roll On (cardamom,rosemary,peppermint,basil,bergamot,geranium,jasmine,lemon,palmarosa,Roman chamomile,rosewood,ylang ylang)  (peppermint,lemon,Idaho balsam fir,Copaiba,clove,wintergreen,helichrysum,vetiver,Palo Santo) and Relieve It (spruce, black pepper, peppermint, hyssop).

The oils in this blend can help dissolve petrochemicals that have accumulated in brain tissue that might contribute to “brain fog”.  When these chemicals are dissolved, the brain receptors can work more efficiently.  Several of the oils in this blend are anti-inflammatory (melissa, frankincense,blue cypress,lavender)  lavender is a vasodilator,  helichrysum helps heal tissue and nerve damage making this blend useful for head trauma or headaches.  This blend is effective when inhaled directly and applying 1-2 drops on the back of the neck, throat, temples or under the nose.   This blend includes sandalwood, melissa, helichrysum, cedarwood, blue cypress, frankincense, lavender and no fillers or diluted oils.
