I don't mean to sound skeptical about massaging lavender oil into temples. But those of us who have suffered and I mean suffered with Migraine for years can tell you what doesn't work. A true migraine can make you almost cry with pain on one side of your head, it can disturb your vision and cause you to be hypersensitive to both light and sound and it can last up to three days. It can make you both dizzy and nauseous and feel dull witted.
It makes you seek a quiet room and pain medication. I cannot tell you how I felt the first time my doctor gave me an Imitrix shot. He came in and turned on the lights in the examining room and I said , Oh PLEASE DON'T! He told me he was a Migrainer and he understood. The shot made the pain and all other symptoms go away in about ten minutes.
I don't even want to remember how many things I missed due to Migraine. And how many things I tried. The smell of any fragrance when I had a Migraine would make it worse for me.
