This inhaler recipe is made with 4 essential oils for headaches, including Frankincense and Lemon essential oils.
Research shows these essential oils can reduce inflammation due to their natural chemical components, such as α-pinene.
Deep breathing with this essential oil inhaler can soothe the occasional headache in several ways: it helps release physical tension from muscles while calming mental and emotional stress (which is sometimes why a tension headache sets in in the first place.)

Questions about the Frankincense & Lemon Tension Headache Inhaler?
Please ask in the comments!
Peppermint oil by itself gets rid of my worst headaches all the time. I don't even use Tylenol anymore!
That's wonderful! Thanks for sharing 💜
Love Aromahead's videos DIY's on the aromatherapy inhalers! A very economical way to use the oils!
Thank you Gail! Your sweet message is truly a delight to receive. We appreciate your kindness and support 💜
This is great, will have to try it. I’ve been using a blend in a roll on and it works well if I use it on my temples the moment I feel a headache coming.
Thanks, Teresa! We hope you'll circle back and let us know how it goes when you try this blend 💜
I would like to try this inhaler very much. But don't have Catnip EO. What EO could be used instead of it?
I know thats the only one I'm missing too.
Guess we could try it without....just a thought!
@Lina Augutiene and @Taming the Wild that's a great question!
Essential oil substitutions always depend on the issue at hand, the intention of the blend, the person’s age, health, preferences… and so many other factors! For this particular blend, you could either leave Catnip out and use an extra drop of Frankincense and Lemon or you could substitute Catnip with Sweet Marjoram (Origanum majorana). 💜
Hi could I sleep with the diffuser on ??
Hi Noella! Each person responds to essential oils in their own way so we can't advice as to how often you diffuse. We might recommend finding a diffuser with optional settings that diffuse for 15 seconds per minute or 1 minute per 10 minutes so that the oils are being diffused intermittently if using it throughout the night as you sleep. 💜
I personally have run out of Catnip and Lemon essential oil so I have substituted as follows:
# 6 drops Frankincense (Boswellia carterii) - mainly for emotional support and anxiety, so its great if your headache is due to anxiety.
# 5 drops Pink Grapefruit (Citrus paradisis) - great for headaches, replaces the Lemon e.o
# 2 drops Sweet Marjoram (Origanum majorana) - Great for Headaches & Migraines. Replaces the Catnip e.o.
# 2 drops Patchouli (Pogostemon cablin) - Mainly used for its pain relieving analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties. Traditionally used for anxiety & depression.
# 2 drops Spike Lavender (Lavandula latifolia) - Great for headaches
# 2 drops Peppermint (Mentha piperita) - Great for headaches & Migraines

Essential Oils gives me n my children a migraine jus from the smell so how can one get rid of my tension headache? I’m genuinely curious!!!!
Hi Angelina! Sadly, sometimes that does happen. Any strong aroma, whether it is synthetic or natural, can be overwhelming for people who are sensitive. We have found that removing all chemicals cleaning products from the home and using all natural, unscented body-care products for a while can help the body respond more gently to essential oils. 💜
How did you smell it when it gave you headache? From the bottle, or from a diffuser, or from a body lotion that has essential oil in it?
And how long did you smell if before it gave you headache? Instantly, or after several minute, or after several hours?
What essential oil have you smelled so far?
The thing is, over inhalation of essential oil may cause headache. And, some people react differently to certain essential oil.
What's a Patchouli?
Hi Jacob! Patchouli is a plan and we use the essential oil made from its leaves. It is very calming to the nervous system, among many other therapeutic benefits.
