1. Lavender Oil

2 to 4 drops for every 2 to 3 cups of boiling water are recommended when inhaling lavender-oil vapors as a headache treatment.

2. Peppermint Oil

Peppermint home remedies open up the sinuses so that more oxygen can get into the bloodstream.

3. Basil Oil

Basil works as a muscle relaxant, so it is especially helpful for headaches caused by tension.
