Headache Oil

(massage oil for tension headaches)

In an amber glass bottle, add the essential oils and vegetable oil. Add the vitamin E. Shake well to mix completely. Label with directions for use. To use, warm a few drops of the concentrated oil and apply to the temples of the head and just beyond the hairline. Typically this area is sore to the touch if the headache is severe. Gently massage this area with a light pressure. Inhale the essences from cupped hands following the massage. Breathe slowly and concentrate on the breath.
