Natural Cures: MIGRAINES!!!

Suffering from migraines???????

There are an assortment of very effective herbs that can be used to help alleviate those stubborn and painful migraines.
One such is lavender, it works as a sedative, with an antispasmodic effect.
Drink a mix of lavender flower and vervain ( 30 g herb to 500 ml water) in half cup doses.
Dilute 10 drops of lavender oil into 25 ml carrier oil and massage into the temples at the first sign of the symptoms. Then drink the mix of the lavender flower and vervain after the massage.

This will take away that nasty migraine with no harm full or addictive medication. You always must use precautions when taking herbs and mixes.

Know your allergys because you could be allergic, and if pregnant, don't use in high doses.
Have a great migraine free day!

Natural Cures by Cher-Is the Doctor always right?

IS THE DOCTOR ALWAYS RIGHT?

I have been to the doctor on many occasions for various reasons, as most of us have.

I have had decent doctors and others who should just turn in their licence's.

It is always good to seek medical opinions before using a herbal remedy, I think in allot of occasions the best way to go is straight from the doctors office to a naturopath, chiropractor, acupuncturist , or sometimes, just a good massage therapist.

I will give an example of just such an occasion for me:

I was off to work one morning, stepped out the front door and slipped right down the stairs.

Pain is a word which least described what I felt. I was hurt yes, but I figured I was probably just bruised. So I left it a couple of days, knowing I didn't break anything. The pain got worse and I was feeling horrible, crying in pain, and knowing I had to see a doctor I called to book an appointment.

Of course , my doctors office has a special type of rule, you can only book 2 days in advance and this doctor really shuns walk ins, so I called to book, no dice, I couldn't get in, would have to call back the next day to book for 2 days down the road. I was in pain!

I called the docs office straight through, and got the nurse who reluctantly let me come down that day.

Crying in the office, because I was in such pain, my daughter sitting beside me, I told the doctor of what happened , so he could understand the situation. He flat out told me, I couldn't be in as much pain as I was, crying was over the top according to him, and there was no way I could have injured myself in the manner of which I described. Then he wrote a prescription for pain killers and sent me on my way.

First off, the rudeness was uncalled for, he didn't diagnose me correctly and I left with a stupid script for pill of which I couldn't take anyway, and I had told him so, he ignored me.

I left there, went straight to a chiropractors office, and the doctor had my pain down to a minimum, told me of stretches I could do to help , and suggested I see a physio therapist as I had hurt the muscle and ligaments.

Within 3 days of seeing the chiropractor , my pain was totally gone and I was on my way to mending.

This experience was just one of many I've had with this doctor, I am not suggesting anyone not see a doctor first, but have the brains to know when something is just not right, and seek another opinion.

I hope all your days are pain free, and hassle free!

Natural Cures: Mosquito's and Black Flies

MOSQUITO'S AND BLACK FLIES
The bugs that bug the most!!!
We all know how pesty mosquito's and black flies can be. They buzz around annoying you until you can't take it anymore and worst of all they bite!
West Nile Virus is a scary thing, but the Deet in most bug repellents can be worse for you than the bug bite itself. Deet, especially when used often can cause extreme illness in small children, it attacks the blood cells in a manner that can possibly KILL!
A good home remedy for keeping the Mosquito's and Black flies away is LISTERINE!
Believe it or not, it works. Put some in a spray bottle and spray down your deck or the area that you and your family are outside in and it will keep those bugs away.
Also for your body, get some tea tree oil, full strength and dab it or rub it around the back of the ear, neck, arms, and legs. Be careful when putting on the face, near the eyes, it can burn.
Take these precautions and the bugs won't be buggin you or your children, its cheap, its all natural and its safe.
Let's keep the bugs from bugging!
