Peppermint Oil
Another simple option to relieve the pain caused by your tension headache is to apply peppermint oil on the back of the jaw, forehead, or temples. This product contains many anti-inflammatory properties that can provide soothing effects and ease any pain or discomfort. All you need to do is to put several drops on the skin and spread around in gentle circles. The cooling sensation will immediately make you feel relieved. At the same time, find a quiet, dark place to lie down or sit and breathe deeply. If your skin is sensitive, it is better to dilute the oil with water or olive oil before applying. This will prevent some allergies or burns. [10]
