A to Z of Migraine

Ayurveda has a holistic approach to treatment rather than symptom-specific management, be it a migraine or any other disease. Intervention from the level of etiology, pathogenesis, aggravating and relieving factors, and disease-specific management along with diet and lifestyle is vital in Ayurveda. In case of Migraine, Ayurveda has shown good efficacy, if consumed for 3 months in a row. Apathya (Triggers) and Pathya (Kitchen Remedies) have significant role in management of Migraine. Bio-purificatory measures like Marma Aroma Therapy, Shirodhara, Virechana and Nasya have shown good efficacy as stand-alone and as an add-on with oral herbal and Herbo-mineral preparations. Though allopathy medicines have no proven results, Ayurveda treatments works tremendously in condition of Migraine.
