Migraine, known as Ardhavabhedaka in Ayurveda, is a neurological condition characterized by recurrent headaches, often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and sensitivity to light or sound. Unlike regular headaches, migraines can be debilitating and affect daily life. At Kulathinmel Ayurveda, Kerala, we provide holistic Ayurvedic treatment that addresses the root cause of migraines by balancing doshas, detoxifying the body, and calming the nervous system.
According to Ayurvedic texts, migraines are caused primarily by an imbalance in Vata and Pitta doshas, leading to disturbed blood circulation, digestive issues, and mental stress. Common triggers include:
Irregular eating habits and indigestion
Excessive stress, anxiety, and lack of sleep
Overexposure to bright light or loud sounds
Hormonal changes
Excessive intake of spicy, sour, or fermented foods
Suppression of natural urges (Vegadharana)
Intense throbbing or pulsating headache, often on one side
Nausea and vomiting
Sensitivity to light and sound
Blurred vision or aura before headache
Irritability and fatigue
Our Ayurvedic treatment for migraine combines internal herbal medicines, Panchakarma therapies, and lifestyle correction to provide long-term relief.
Nasya therapy: Administration of medicated oils through the nasal passage to calm Vata dosha and strengthen the nervous system.
Shirodhara: Continuous pouring of medicated oil on the forehead to reduce stress, anxiety, and tension headaches.
