as a young girl and until i was in my 20's i had migrain's-i tryed everything,i dont remember if ibroprophen was available,but i am sensitive to asprin so that was out.when i was takeing a bath one day, i layed down in the water low enough to cover my head,all except my face,and stayed there ,i had a bad migrain and noticed that the pain went away when i was under,i always liked the water as hot as i could stand,and this seemed to help.i sat up after a few min.and it still hurt so i went back under.after 5-10 min a sat up again-and too my surprise and delight-the headach was GONE!anytime after when the migrain returned i would repeat this and it worked!i am now 60 yr's old,and the headachs have been gone since my 20's-but i remember!!pain,light sensitivety,vomiting,the works.i dont know if i just outgrew it or this "treatment"helped-but there is hope-try it and let me know if it works for you-i hope so-
