Crystal Amethyst Roller
Amethyst is associated with calming the nervous system and balancing the crown chakra. It can also aid in circulation, pain relief, and relaxation, and even easing tension in the eye muscles. These properties make amethyst an ideal crystal for soothing headaches and migraines. These amethyst face rollers combine the pain relieving and nerve calming properties of amethyst with the circulation-boosting of cold jade rollers. Chilled jade rollers bring icy cold relief that you can focus on key acupressure points. Just keep your roller in the fridge or freezer and they'll be ready when the pain strikes.
Dry Body Brush with Massage Nodes
Dry brushing has become increasingly popular, but how can it be used to prevent and soothe chronic pain and migraine? Dry brushing is actually a form of lymphatic massage and involves gentle massage of the skin with natural bristles. It can help stimulate lymphatic drainage and calm the sympathetic nervous system. As migraine and other forms of chronic pain have been associated with a hyperexcitable sympathetic nervous system, dry brushing can be an effective all-natural approach in preventing and calming pain responses and migraine.
Directions: Dry brushing before you shower is an easy way to incorporate it into your daily routine. Begin brushing dry skin, free from lotions or oils, starting at your feet and moving in long sweeping motions toward your heart. Go over each area several times and focus attention on areas of tension. Dry brushing is also a highly effective exfoliant so be sure to moisturize after your shower or directly after brushing.
