Migraines
(9 of 9)
scarlet can raise blood pressure via three effects: vascoconstrictor,
raises heart rate, calms the kidneys. Be careful, however, because migraines
are more usually associated with higher blood flow. For those with migraines
due to decreased blood flow, scarlet may be effectively directed towards
the face may for relief.
Between migraines try:
- lemon (helps to dissolve blood clots) and yellow (acts on the motor
nerves, thereby helping to energize muscles; acts on the lymphatic system
as it is a mild tissue stimulant) for 2 weeks, then
- lemon and orange (as decongestants) for 4 weeks
- this is repeated for as long as is necessary
For right sided migraines try:
- blue over the liver for 5 minutes
- blue on the face
In general, great healing colors for migraines are the colors associated
with the upper "chakras" (energy centers along the spine), which
are violet, indigo, blue, and green.
Some people will find gems and semi-precious stones, worn as jewelry or
placed in special locations around the home, will help restore balance and
bring a sense of peace and well-being. Some gems to consider for migraine
are:
- Ruby
- Cat's Eye
- Sapphire
- Amethyst
- Sugulite
