June is Migraine & Headache Awareness Month 💜
For many, headaches and migraines aren't just "a bit of a sore head."
They can be debilitating, isolating, and deeply misunderstood.
This month, let's gently shed light on what so many brave souls live with - often in silence.
What's the difference?
💜Headaches are common and can range from mild to severe.
💜Migraines are a neurological condition, often accompanied by nausea, visual disturbances, and intense pain that can last for hours or even days.
They're not just "bad headaches" — they affect the whole body and nervous system.
💜Common Triggers:
🌙Hormonal changes (especially around menstruation)
💧Dehydration
💤Lack of sleep or oversleeping
🍫Certain foods (like cheese, chocolate, processed meats)
🌡️Weather changes
💻Screen time and sensory overload
😣Stress or emotional overwhelm
💜Natural Support & Gentle Healing Tips:
🌿Hydration is key - Add a few slices of cucumber or lemon for an extra soothing touch.
💎Crystal support - Try placing amethyst or clear quartz on your temples or third eye during a migraine episode.
🌸Reiki or energy healing
- Gentle touch and energetic balancing can bring relief, especially if the pain is stress-related.
💆♀️Indian Head Massage - Stimulates circulation and relieves tension from the neck, shoulders, and scalp.
💚Essential oils -
Peppermint, lavender, and eucalyptus can ease symptoms when applied to pressure points (diluted, of course).
🧘♀️Tapping/EFT - Helps calm the nervous system and reduce the intensity of pain.
🌓Moon tracking - Some migraines follow lunar cycles. Keeping a journal may reveal patterns.
You're not alone.
If you or someone you love suffers from chronic headaches or migraines…
I see you.
Your pain is valid.
I understand your pain as a Migraine sufferer myself.
And healing is possible — sometimes through small, gentle shifts.
If you'd like support exploring holistic ways to ease migraines — physically, emotionally, or energetically - I'm here.
Let's honour our bodies, listen to what they're telling us, and hold space for rest and release.
For the whole of June I’m offering 20% off Reiki and Indian Head Massage appointments at Holistic Hummingbird, Ferndown.
