Is it true that people smoke lavender for headaches?

I know this is a odd question but im going to ask it any way do people smoke lavender to hep with headaches or stress. I know lavender tea will help with both but would smoking lavender work faster if so is it safe or is it like smoking tobacco???

Is it true that people smoke lavender for headaches?
I definitely would not recommend smoking it. Don't smoke anything for a headache. The damage you could do to your lungs isn't worth possible headache relief.



You could instead Make a lavender pillow- here are directions

Or you could Make a quick lavender pouch

If you've just purchased some dried lavender buds with the intention of making a pillow, but haven't yet had the time and a migraine hits in, here's a helpful suggestion. Simply take a square of fabric, a scarf, a bandana, a cloth napkin or tea towel and lay it out flat. Pour a handful of lavender in the middle. Roll up the fabric like a toffee and secure either end with a rubber band. In just seconds you have a quick temporary lavender pouch which you can rest across your forehead or eyes, again, inhaling the scent to soothe your migraine.



Or you could Take a lavender bath

Moist heat is often prescribed to loosen stiff, achy muscles and relieve tension. Because so many headaches are tension-centered, a bath can bring relief to an achy head, too. When combined with lavender essential oil, you've discovered a potentially powerful weapon against your migraines. You can make up your own migraine bath oil as follows. Combine 5 drops of lavender essential oil with an emulsifier such as raw honey or olive oil. You can store this for many months in a cool, dry, dark place. Add about 1 tablespoon to the bath as you fill it. The lavender fragrance will rise up in the steam of the warm water, surrounding you with soothing vapors.



But definitely don't smoke it
Reply:IT would kill you lungs just like any smoke...

Here are some herb cigarettes for you! :)

Reply:It will make you verrrry sick. When I was younger my mate and I tried rolling scented cigarettes and lavender was one of the worst!

(Also it makes it smell awful and ruins the aesthetic for you forever!)



Pot will cure a headache and stress but it's illegal. Find and sign a petition to legalize it and you will be one step closer to fewer headaches and less stress.
Reply:Ok this is going to sound silly but if you want to get rid of a headache without taking pain relievers.........here is the way to do it, or at least it works for me.

And a very old widow lady told me this and I didn't believer her but one day I had a headache and no aspirin so I tried it.



drink 2 glasses of "Gatorade" at the onset of the headache and it will make it go away.
Reply:if you are looking for a natural way to get rid of headaches,try wild lettuce it really does work.
