Ayurvedic Outlook

We are talking about the Ayurveda here especially, as we all know it is ancient science which based on the idea of balancing the three energies in the body system, proper diet, herbal medicine and yogic breathing. Medication can help to reduce the frequency and severity of the migraine. In Ayurveda this condition, is known as "Sooryavarta". Soorya means "Sun" and avarta means "blockage". The headache gets worsened on sunrise, peaks during noon hours and reduces after evening.

According To The Ayurveda The Causes Of The Migraine (Sooryavarta)

  • Indigestion
  • Intake of unhygienic food
  • Exposure to sunlight for long time.
  • Intake of dry, pungent, salty and spicy food.
