Migraine Treatment in Ayurveda

Dr. Amar’s Shree Vishwa Anand Health Care – Chembur, Mumbai
At Dr. Amar’s Panchakarma Center, Chembur, we provide a holistic and time-tested Ayurvedic treatment for migraine that addresses not just the pain, but also the root imbalance of Vata and Pitta dosha.
Our therapies focus on detoxification, nervous system rejuvenation, and restoring the natural harmony of body and mind — helping patients achieve long-term relief without dependency on painkillers.
Understanding Migraine (Modern Perspective)
Migraine is a neurological condition characterized by recurrent episodes of severe, pulsating headaches, usually on one side of the head. It is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, visual disturbances (aura), and sensitivity to light and sound.
Common Symptoms Include:
Throbbing or pulsating headache, often one-sided
Sensitivity to light, noise, or smell
Nausea and vomiting
Dizziness and visual disturbances (flashing lights, zigzag lines)
Fatigue, irritability, and difficulty concentrating
Modern Causes and Triggers:
Stress and anxiety
Irregular meals or fasting
Hormonal fluctuations (especially in women)
Sleep deprivation or excessive sleep
Dehydration, caffeine, or alcohol
Certain foods like cheese, chocolate, or processed meats
In modern medicine, migraines are managed with painkillers, anti-nausea medications, and triptans. However, these provide only temporary relief and can cause dependency or rebound headaches. Ayurveda offers a holistic, natural, and long-term solution that works on the root cause.
Ayurvedic View on Migraine (Ardhavabhedaka)
In Ayurveda, migraine is correlated with “Ardhavabhedaka”, a subtype of Shiroroga (head disorders). It occurs due to the aggravation of Vata and Pitta dosha, which causes constriction of the brain channels (Sira Sankocha) leading to intense, one-sided headache and neurological disturbances.
Causes of Dosha Imbalance:
Irregular food habits or skipping meals
Excess exposure to sunlight, anger, and stress
Late-night work or sleep deprivation
Fasting and indigestion (Agnimandya)
Suppression of natural urges (like sneezing or urination)
The imbalance of Vata dosha causes pain and nerve irritation, while Pitta dosha causes burning sensations, redness of eyes, and light sensitivity. Over time, this leads to chronic migraine tendencies if left untreated.
Ayurvedic Treatment for Migraine
At Dr. Amar’s Shree Vishwa Anand Health Care, treatment focuses on detoxification, dosha balance, and nervous system rejuvenation through Panchakarma therapies, internal medicines, diet, and stress management.
1️⃣ Nasya (Nasal Therapy)
The most effective classical therapy for migraine.
Application of medicated oils like Anu Taila, Shadbindu Taila, or Brahmi Taila through the nostrils helps eliminate toxins (Ama) from the head and neck region, reduces pain, and improves mental clarity.
2️⃣ Shirodhara (Oil Stream Therapy)
Continuous pouring of medicated oil, milk, or buttermilk on the forehead calms the mind, regulates hormones, and relieves stress-induced headaches.
Commonly used oils: Ksheerabala Taila, Chandanadi Taila, or Brahmi Taila.
3️⃣ Abhyanga & Shiro Abhyanga (Full Body & Head Massage)
Improves circulation, relaxes muscles, and nourishes the nervous system.
Regular head massage prevents migraine recurrence by balancing Vata dosha.
4️⃣ Virechana (Pitta Cleansing Therapy)
Controlled purgation using herbal formulations like Avipattikar Churna, Trivrut Lehya, or Amalaki helps remove excess Pitta and toxins from the body.
5️⃣ Basti (Medicated Enema)
Anuvasana Basti and Matra Basti with oils like Dashamoola Taila or Bala Taila help balance Vata dosha and relieve chronic migraine tendencies.
6️⃣ Herbal Medicines for Migraine
Sutshekhar Rasa, Godanti Bhasma, Pathyadi Kadha, Brahmi Vati, Ashwagandha, Jatamansi, Tagar, Shankhapushpi.
These herbs calm the nervous system, reduce stress, and support long-term healing.
