Migraines are serious. Can’t say that enough!
Yet current conventional medicine has little help and what help they do offer involves the use of toxic and dangerous drugs that mess with your mind, your brain tissue, your total physiology. If you suffer from migraines you owe it to yourself to try all the natural remedies available until you find the one that fits you and works. That being said, even natural remedies often don’t work well. For me, clearly, regular visits to a chiropractor that is skilled in the neck adjustment has been key. I don't know what I would do without such skilled people around. I’ve been reliant on proper neck adjustments since high school, 45 years now. I don't know that there is any permanent fix to my neck... unlike normal people, I have no curvature in the upper spine of my neck. Its not visible from the outside, only an x-ray can reveal... but it is the cause of many a severe headache, that I classify as a tension migraine. Neck adjustments keep them away. From the chart below you will see some of the different kinds of headaches some people get at different times. Most of us have had these at one point or another in our lives.
But for the true migraine sufferer headaches can be relentless and unending. Many find no real help and must be under physician’s care with the use of pharmaceutical drugs for a lifetime. Over the years I’ve been able to assist some migraine sufferers with a simple homeopathic cure. Now if these headaches are associated with neck problems or chronic sinus infection they may not work so well. You need to adjust the neck or treat the infection too. But for the cluster, tension and dreaded migraine of monumental status it has proven to work.
One case I worked on was with a woman who was in such daily pain that she couldn’t work. She could barely even take care of her children. Most of her days were spent in a dark room as light and noise made everything worse. This went on for several years before I met her. No doctor had been able to help her. She started on two recommended homeopathic remedies taken as instructed on the bottle, 3 times a day. Within a few short days she was much better. After 2 weeks she was all better and had no more migraines. She went out to look for a job. Pretty remarkable? I’d say yes.
You don't have to have catastrophic migraines for these remedies to work. They work well for simple headaches also. I no longer ever use Tylenol or aspirin. Sometimes I have to dose the remedy twice, after 15 minutes from the first dose for all the pain to go away. The first remedy is called Spigelon, made in Germany by a homeopathic company called Heel. This is specifically for headaches that are in the forehead or on top of the head The second one is called Gelsemium Homaccord, also a Heel product, which is specifically for headaches that hold their origin at the base of the skull. Often I need to take both. I have never had a headache that these remedies did not alleviate and usually within half an hour. Simply put the names of the remedy in the search tool on this page. I prefer the liquid drop product because I can make a bottle last a very long time.

Access to these compound remedies keeps shifting around. I can’t even find them in the USA anymore because Heel stopped distributing them here. Sometimes they can be found on Amazon. I’ve even ordered from Romania and Russia in the past.
The manual from Heel Homeopathics (Routine Therapy - The Practitioner’s Handbook to Homotoxicology) also recommends Psorinoheel for migraines. I have never needed it nor has anyone whom I’ve managed to help. But it is listed as a leading remedy for migraines to be used in conjunction with the others. If the two I list don’t work alone, you may need to add Psorinoheel.
How to make a dropper bottle last a long time.
Homeopathy works on the quantum level. Physical matter has a small part to play. Each medicine carries the imprint of the substances used to make it. The original substance is no longer there. The first thing I learned using these remedies is that only 5 drops are needed to get the job done as opposed to what is recommended on the bottle. In homeopathy the size of the dose is irrelevant. It’s the impact of the frequency that is everything. The second thing I learned is that each bottle can be cut in half. Get another glass bottle the same size and pour half of the remedy into it. Add a touch of vodka or similar clear alcohol suitable for ingestion (ever clear) to keep the fluid pure. Then fill the bottle with spring or distilled water. Now you have two bottles for the price of one. You still only need 5 drops. Before using the remedy succuss it by tapping if firmly on a hard book 4 to 6 times. This agitates the frequency and makes it more active. Label your new bottle and label each one ‘cut’ so you remember that you have already diluted this remedy. I suspect you could cut a cut bottle again.. but you know... we have to keep these Homeopathic pharmacies in business.
