    From a gardening standpoint, Lemon balm can be very invasive in your landscape - I wish I could send everybody some! So, if you want to grow it, put it in a pot, but also remember to take off the flowers as soon as they appear, or they'll send seeds into your landscape. Just enjoy the leaves.

Example: for preparing a tea, how much lemon balm is required - too much or too little would make a difference. How much is used to make an oil based extract? Which carrier oil is best? In what way can it be applied to the skin, and again, how much. Herbal preparations, like any medicine, typically include dosage information. These facts are those about which I am inquiring.

      Yellow Rose's • Feverfew herb plant (looks like tiny daisies) but just check your using the correct one. Pretty bright green leaves are very bitter, but just pick one or two is usually all you need. Wash & chop up or simply pop into your mouth, maybe with a small amount 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon of good Manuka honey & swallow. Sit & relax in a darkened room & place an ice pack alternately on the back of your neck then over your forehead & eyes.
      Make sure your drinking enough water daily for your body mass & stop doing whatever that induces these headaches. Lots of reasons for them!!
      Learn to practice mindfulness & meditation techniques. Avoid all tech & blue light screens & TV etc at least 3hrs before bed/sleep. Reduce stress & stay fit, well & happy as you can.
      All the best!!!

      @@aharowna3539 The best treatment for migraine is Chinese acupuncture by a professional Chinese acupuncturist. This is a treatment that I have tried myself, and found it to be quite helpful (it is a real cure). Herbs don’t really help very much. However, I really thank you very much for your response.
      Are you a herbalist? If yes, I would like to ask you about a herbal treatment for my mother. She is an elderly woman and suffers from insomnia and stomach bloating after any meal she eats. She had these two problems for years.

      @@yellowroses1316 Hi there, I'm a longterm professionally qualified Holistic Therapist with many strings to my bow, having achieved 26+ accredited letters after my name, should I wish to use them professionally, but no, I'm not a trained as a Herbalist though has been a lifelong passion of mine for the subject since as young as I can recall, growing allsorts on my bedroom windowsill as a very young child.
      I'm sad to hear of your mum's longterm discomfort caused by these symptoms & can tell you there is a high link between digestive issues & insomnia & vice versa Yellow Roses!
      One of course can & does cause the other & there are numerous possible causes in fact.
      The main one is IBS & assuming after so long, hopefully your mum has sought support & investigations into certain food intolerances etc..?
      Lots can be done to improve this painful & frustrating, inconvenient issue.
      Ironically as a student, my first Case Study (to enable me to pass my exams) was actually a lovely lady with severe IBS, & part of that particular exam module was also fitness, wellness & weight loss.
      So yes, it was a challenge for a much younger me, but she had a positive & excellent outcome with beautiful before & after photos to prove it.
      Turned out she actually had a rare sensitivity to dark greens & salad leaves, but she could tolerate a greens supplement. She also responded very well to Peppermint Capsules taken daily & I got her on Pure Aloe Vera Juice & she thrived on this protocol as well as quite easily reached her own personal healthier & weight loss goals.
      Funnily, as a nice addition to our time together she went on to sell a range of Aloe Vera products as a successful 2nd income stream for her as a Single mum & her family.
      I've also some experience working with the elderly in various roles, but from my earliest Nursing experience as well as Holistic practice just to err on the side of caution. In some cases it's best to ask your mum to get medically checked out for any other underlying causes, such as ascites (is fluid build up) & can be related to cardiac function & output - but not always of course. However it would be wrong of me not to point that out. It's more common as people age & as the day progresses a distended abdomen is also quite usually noticeable by bedtime. Hopefully not re: your mum though & perhaps as simple as a food intolerance or sensitivity, which an elimination diet could easily resolve. Just get a diary & strict note of all input foods & drinks & any noticeable after effects.
      I hope all of this can be of some use to you both & many thanks too for your advice re: migraines. Lots depend on the causes for certain symptoms & I've unfortunately sustained 2 severe head injuries throughout my life, which I attribute mine to.
      Sounds simple maybe but I place 2 polished small rose quartz on closed eyelids & do a Deep lymph drainage therapy called The Perrin Technique (patented here in the UK) & this combo, alongside the ice packs usually get rid of any migraine type headaches within 20-30mins & 99% minus any pain meds.
      shalowm & hoping all the very best to you both & anyone else reading & trying these suggestions. 🙂🌿🌸😘

      @@aharowna3539 Thank you very much. My mother went to a gastroenterologist last year. She already did an abdominal ultrasound for her, and prescribed her a medicine. It was not helpful. She didn’t say that my mother has IBS or ascites. We are thinking of taking her to another well-known gastroenterologist (hopefully after she decides to go). At the moment, she is not sure whether she wants to see another doctor or not. She doesn’t have sensitivity from particular foods.
      Is it okay if you give me your email address? I might need your help for my mother in future. Or maybe I could ask you about a good gastroenterologist in the UK for second opinion. We could email my mother’s results and see what he thinks. We are from Bahrain.
