I count myself lucky that my migraines are pretty mild, although they have been frequent in the past.
I take the herb feverfew on a daily basis, and I now get far fewer migraines than I used to. And when I do, they are even milder than before.
There have been some pretty compelling studies on the effectiveness.
"Feverfew is used as a preventative (or prophylactic) treatment for migraine. A number of people have reported that after taking feverfew their migraines have gradually become less frequent and in a few cases have stopped altogether.
Until recently only a few scientific studies into the use feverfew had been conducted, and those few had been small in scale. However a well designed trial published in 2005 has attested to the efficacy of feverfew as a viable preventative treatment for migraine. "

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
