In this article, I will discuss:

What is a migraine?

Migraine is a neurological condition. The most well-known symptom is a severe headache. The headache is usually joined by other symptoms like sensitivity to light and sound, nausea, and vomiting. The throbbing, painful attacks can last for hours, days, or even weeks. And they can be completely disabling to those who get them.

There are many theories as to what causes migraine headaches. One thing we do know is that migraine pain involves the blood vessels and the vascular system. And we know that in many cases, hormones affect the chain of events that lead to a migraine.

Migraine treatment involves medications, lifestyle changes, and at home remedies. These can all help a person to find relief from the painful symptoms.

 

The hormone connection

For many people, migraines are linked to hormones.

In the chain of events that lead to a migraine attack, hormones are involved. Some of the major players include estrogen, vasopressin, and oxytocin.

Therefore, migraine remedies need to look at those hormones. They must address the imbalances in order to stop attacks from taking place.

So what natural remedies work best? Which ones will give migraineurs the relief they deserve?

What's the best remedy for throbbing vascular migraines?

I explained above how hormones like oxytocin are known to be involved in the migraine-related chain of events. Addressing the effects of oxytocin can be a helpful way to stop attacks.

In order to do this, people take a variety of approaches.

Common approaches

The list below explains some common efforts that people take to try and reduce pain by altering oxytocin levels.

  1. High potency vitamin C. Vitamin C is needed to make oxytocin, so sometimes this can help.

  2. High dosages of magnesium. Again, magnesium is needed to make oxytocin. Magnesium also relaxes the tissues, and it can help with migraines.

  3. Oxytocin nasal spray. This can work for some people to boost oxytocin levels.

  4. Saltwater. Oxytocin depletes sodium, so some people find it helpful to put salt back into the body with salt water.
     

These approaches can be useful for migraine headache relief. But in the end, they aren't the natural migraine remedy that I recommend first and foremost.
 

My #1 recommendation for migraine relief

My favorite, tried-and-true home remedy for migraines is celery juice.

As I mentioned above, oxytocin depletes sodium. If you are low in sodium, you will dehydrate your tissues and increase cerebrospinal fluid (CSF). This will in turn cause pressure (and pain) and even cause nausea. Those are the same symptoms of a migraine attack.

So increasing sodium levels in the body can be important in finding relief. It will keep your tissues hydrated and decrease the CSF pressure that could be causing your migraine pain.

But I do not recommend just consuming straight salt, or sodium chloride, as other people might. I recommend just increasing sodium.

How do you do that?

By drinking celery juice.

Celery juice has natural sodium in it, which can turn into a very effective home remedy.

How to use celery juice for migraine symptoms

I think that celery juice is one of the most underrated migraine headache remedies. I find it to be very helpful in supporting people in finding relief.

It is quite easy to use celery juice for migraine relief. There is no long list of herbs or supplements or medications you have to pile up in your cabinet. Just one natural, simple ingredient.

All you've got to do is juice 4-5 stalks of celery. And drink up!

That's it. It is as easy as that.

You will find that the celery juice will give you more relief than a lot of those other remedies out there like feverfew or butterbur or caffeine.
