10 Benefits of Lavender Oil
Lavender Oil Benefit #2: Headache Relief
Headaches are quite common, but their severity can range from mildly uncomfortable to extremely painful. Some people struggle with them more than others. Many medicines and remedies can help to varying degrees, and lavender oil is one of them.
Studies have shown that inhaling lavender oil can significantly reduce headache pain for about fifteen minutes. It encourages relaxation and works as an antianxiety remedy, an anticonvulsant, and as a sedative. It is particularly effective when mixed with peppermint oil and rubbed on the temples and back of the neck.
