Drug-Free Migraine Relief Remedies
Restore Patch has spent years studying how gentle, drug-free interventions can fit into everyday life. We understand that migraines are complex, so weβre well-positioned to recommend remedies that can help you relieve migraines and severe headaches.
Below are our recommended natural devices and remedies if you want to know how to stop a migraine naturally:
1. Migraine and headache patch
Patches work well for localized aches, such as headaches and migraines, because they are easy and convenient to use and target the problem area. They provide steady, low-effort support.
Unlike pills or creams that wear off quickly or need frequent reapplication, patches are designed to work gradually over time. They keep doing their job once applied, even if you donβt pay attention to them.
Restore Migraine Patches offer this solution. They are easy to apply and continuously work to relieve migraines and headaches.
This wearable migraine device provides support for migraines, headaches, and auras, sensory disturbances that sometimes occur before or signal the onset of a migraine headache. They reduce the intensity of throbbing, nausea, vomiting, sensitivity, and the length of your downtime.
Each migraine and headache patch is completely chemical- and drug-free. Its only ingredients are a 3M adhesive material and a thin copper foil.
Through transfer of energy, each patchβs copper foil is embedded with unique frequencies and energetic signatures. When applied, these energy profiles are absorbed by the skin, allowing your body to experience natural relief from migraines, auras, and headaches.
You can apply the patch when you start noticing the warning signs or the early stages of a headache or migraine. Wear it round the clock for three full days to get the most benefits.
These patches wonβt interact with prescription medicines or supplements you may be taking, but consult your doctor if youβre on any treatment plan, especially if youβre thinking of stopping your current medications.
2. Cold or warm compress
Cold and warm compresses can provide migraine relief without pills.
Apply a cold compress or a bag of ice to your temple or neck to relieve the pain. If you prefer a warm compress or cloth, place it on your head or nape (the back of your neck).
Avoid applying the compress for longer than 15 minutes. Make sure you donβt fall asleep while using a heating pad, as this can be unsafe.
3. Dark, quiet space
Certain stimuli can trigger a migraine or cause the symptoms to worsen. As such, avoid strong stimuli and sensory overload when you feel an attack coming.
Find a dark room where you can relax to reduce or avoid photophobia or sensitivity to light, a common symptom of migraine. Make sure it is also a quiet space because loud noise can cause or worsen the pain.
Also, avoid strong smells such as perfumes, gasoline, and chemical odors. Sensitivity to smell or osmophobia, a common migraine symptom, can aggravate the pain.
4. Magnesium
Over 300 human body processes rely on magnesium. Low levels of this nutrient can cause nausea, vomiting, muscle twitches, high blood pressure, headaches, and migraines.
Increasing your intake of magnesium, therefore, can help prevent migraine, including menstrual or hormone headaches. and reduce their intensity.
Start by adding more magnesium-rich foods to your diet. Examples include:
- Nuts such as almonds, Brazil nuts, and cashews
- Sesame and sunflower seeds
- Peanut butter
- Oatmeal
- Milk
- Eggs
- Peas
- Edamame and black beans
- Potatoes
You can also take a magnesium oxide supplement. However, speak with your doctor first to find out the daily dose you need.
5. Vitamin B2
According to research, people with chronic migraines may reduce the frequency of attacks by taking vitamin B2 or riboflavin supplements daily.
Vitamin B2 can help reduce nerve inflammation that often causes migraines. It also eases stress, which is another factor linked to this condition.
The easiest way to boost your riboflavin intake is to take a supplement. You can also eat more of these foods rich in riboflavin:
- Avocado
- Asparagus
- Cruciferous vegetables
- Dairy products
- Egg
- Fish
- Meat
- Chicken
- Lima and navy beans
- Mushrooms
- Nuts
Working out regularly, getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, and using anxiety patches to manage your stress can also help reduce the severity of your headaches and migraine attacks.
