The pain may be accompanied by nausea and dizziness. In order to understand the techniques that will work for you in getting rid of your migraines, it is important to first try to establish what factors trigger them.

Common migraine triggers include stress, certain foods (especially fatty foods or those containing nitrate preservatives) particular sounds and lights, changes in pressure and humidity, alcohol, smoking, inadequate sleep and certain odors. If you can monitor how you respond to all these and identify the triggers specific to you, then you’ll be able to prevent many incidences of migraine from occuring.

You can also save yourself from the pain of an inevitable migraine by reacting fast from the onset of one. Look out for common symptoms that usually precede or occur alongside migraines: dizziness, blurred vision, getting irritated by light sounds, nausea, vomiting, face feels hot. If any of these occur, then a migraine is on its way. Here are 3 easy steps you can take to relieve the pain.

Drink black coffee

A cup of coffee can help reduce the inflammation and ease the pain. The caffeine contained in coffee constricts blood vessels that dilate when a migraine occurs, effectively reducing the pain. Tea is an alternative, as well any other caffeinated drink of your choice. Some people take coffee with two tablets of aspirin and this works well to clear their migraines.

Relax in a dark room

Lock yourself up in a dark room, away from all the noise, light and other disturbances. Exposure to even the slightest of sounds and lighting increases your pain drammatically, which is why you need to take a rest in seclusion to relax your nerves. While you’re at it, try visualizing a scenario in which the pain slowly exits from your head, or how it ebbs away in a gliding motion. It actually helps to distract your mind from the pain, so play any ‘tricks’, with your imagination, that can help ease the pain.

Pain relievers

When a migraine strikes, the easiest option is to reach for over-the-counter medication that can provide pain relief. Aspirin and ibuprofen are NSAIDs (Non-steroidsal anti-inflammatory drugs) that can provide relief for mild symptoms of migraine. If Aspirin does not work, use Triptans especially when the migraine attack is severe. Triptans can relieve the pain and eliminate sensitivity to light and sound, as well as the nausea. Ergots are a less expensive alternative to Triptans, though less effective.

A natural, effective alternative that works for many people is chewing ginger (or taking a ginger root capsule). Ginger helps to relieve the nausea accompanying migraines and reduces inflammation in the blood vessels by blocking the effects of prostaglandins.

Other techniques:

  • Gently press an ice pack on the affected area
  • Take plenty of water (prevent dehydration)
  • Take a warm bath (relaxation)
  • Practice yoga for stress relief
  • Wrap a warm compress around your neck and head to relax muscles
  • Relax – keep off work/physical activity

A cup of coffee can help reduce the inflammation and ease the pain. The caffeine contained in coffee constricts blood vessels that dilate when a migraine occurs, effectively reducing the pain. Tea is an alternative, as well any other caffeinated drink of your choice. Some people take coffee with two tablets of aspirin and this works well to clear their migraines.

Relax in a dark room

Lock yourself up in a dark room, away from all the noise, light and other disturbances. Exposure to even the slightest of sounds and lighting increases your pain drammatically, which is why you need to take a rest in seclusion to relax your nerves. While you’re at it, try visualizing a scenario in which the pain slowly exits from your head, or how it ebbs away in a gliding motion. It actually helps to distract your mind from the pain, so play any ‘tricks’, with your imagination, that can help ease the pain.

Pain relievers

When a migraine strikes, the easiest option is to reach for over-the-counter medication that can provide pain relief. Aspirin and ibuprofen are NSAIDs (Non-steroidsal anti-inflammatory drugs) that can provide relief for mild symptoms of migraine. If Aspirin does not work, use Triptans especially when the migraine attack is severe. Triptans can relieve the pain and eliminate sensitivity to light and sound, as well as the nausea. Ergots are a less expensive alternative to Triptans, though less effective.

A natural, effective alternative that works for many people is chewing ginger (or taking a ginger root capsule). Ginger helps to relieve the nausea accompanying migraines and reduces inflammation in the blood vessels by blocking the effects of prostaglandins.

Other techniques:

  • Gently press an ice pack on the affected area
  • Take plenty of water (prevent dehydration)
  • Take a warm bath (relaxation)
  • Practice yoga for stress relief
  • Wrap a warm compress around your neck and head to relax muscles
  • Relax – keep off work/physical activity
