Did you know that migraines can be triggered by changes in the weather? With dropping temperatures, seasonal food changes, and warm winter beverages on the menu, we thought it a good idea to review some of the known causes of migraine headaches, and also some simple natural remedies that you can use to overcome them.

COMMON TRIGGERS INCLUDE:
• Alcoholic beverages
• WEATHER CHANGES
• Bright light (esp. with light sensitivity)
• Caffeine (tea, soda, coffee, chocolate, energy drinks, some health drinks)
• PROCESSED FOODS, ADDITIVES & PRESERVATIVES (esp. MSG, aspartame, cheese and processed meats)
• Desk or computer work (posture and light)
• DEHYDRATION
• HORMONES (esp. estrogen, hormone swings)
• Hotter air temperatures

SIMPLE NATURAL REMEDIES
• HYDRATION [your body weight (#) ÷ 2 = ounces of water to consume daily (average)]
• Natural Calm MAGNESIUM (or other such magnesium supplements)
• REST (get plenty of quality rest every night)
• B-complex vitamins (aid the nervous system)
• Regular moderate exercise
• MASSAGE THERAPY (esp. neck and back)
• Lavender or peppermint essential oils
• Soothing herbal teas
• COLD/ICE PACKS on the head and neck (especially helpful when used after consuming a warm beverage or in conjunction with a hot pack application on the feet)

For more information on how Massage Therapy can benefit you or a loved one suffering from migraines, give us a call today: 308-432-4558.
