Guest guest Posted December 22, 2004 Report Share Posted December 22, 2004 Welcome . I can give you some ideas... however we need to find the reason for both... have you always had these? was it from an accident? need more info to get to the cause and cure that.. What is your diet like? Do you do any back exercises (in the files under natural health recipes i believe).. Organic iron (in the files under organic supplements) and feverfew will help with headaches.. Deep tissue oil and msm will give some relief to the back... Here are a few more... but these are bandaids and we need to find the reason... waiting to hear about your everyday diet, what you eat, drink, etc... and what you are currently taking. Some drugs and herbs interact. Pain Killer - Soak 1/2 teaspoon of dried willow bark in 2 cups cold water overnight. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes. Strain, cool, and bottle. Dosage is 1/4 cup, to be sipped slowly as needed for pain. It can be added to juices or teas if you wish. Skullcap blend - This is very good for nervous headaches. Mix 1 cup each of dried skullcap, sage, and peppermint. To use, pour 1 cup boiling water of 1 teaspoon of herb mixture. Cover and let steep 10 minutes. Strain and sweeten. Drink warm as needed. Skullcap is especially effective in dispelling headaches. It relaxes the whole system and is non-addictive. Soothing bath for Tension Headaches - Put 1 ounce each of mugwort, valerian, chamomile, and agrimony to 1 pint of boiling water. Allow to simmer for 30 minutes. Strain and add to bath water. Very good for aching muscles.
