Place a hot water bottle on your stomach to relieve cramps. <\/span><\/p>\n
Parsley not only increases menstruation and aids in regulating a monthly period, but parsley juice also treats painful cramping. Blend and drink 75 millilitres of parsley, beet, carrot, and cucumber juices for maximum results.<\/span><\/p>\n
During times of a painful menstruation, use ginger as an effective home remedy. Pound a piece of ginger and boil it in a cup of water for a couple of minutes. Sweeten the infusion with sugar and drink three times daily after meals.<\/span><\/p>\n
The anti-inflammatory and antispasmodic properties associated with cinnamon can ease the symptoms of menstrual cramping. Sprinkle cinnamon on your breakfast foods or add to a tea.<\/span><\/p>\n
In half liter of water, put 6 grams of coriander seeds and boil it until only half the quantity remains. Sweeten the decoction, with sugar or honey, and have it when warm.<\/span><\/p>\n
Topical application of essential oils can be used to provide relief for severe menstrual cramps. Peppermint, lavender, chamomile, ginger, cypress and basil are some of the most effective. Other essential oils that can give relief for menstrual cramps include rosemary, sage and tarragon. Lemon, grapefruit and juniper may help relieve the bloating that some women experience along with cramping. <\/span><\/p>\n
Lavender, chamomile, ginger and lemon balm are essential oils, which contain natural muscle relaxants. Make a massage oil to rub gently over the abdominal area by mixing two or three drops of the essential oil of your choice into an ounce of sweet almond oil.<\/span><\/p>\n
