Conceptual Study of Migraine in Ayurveda (Ardhavbhedaka)ijtsrd
Migraine is one of the most common neurovascular disabling disorders encountered in Shalakya practice. Migraine can be defined as a paroxysmal affection having a sudden onset accompanied by usually unilateral severe headache. In Ayurveda, Migraine is described as Ardhaavabhedhaka which is a major health issue among people of age group 30 to 50 years. According to WHO, migraine is the third most common disease in the world with an estimated global prevalence of 14.7% (around 1 in 7 people).1 Chronic Migraine affects about 2% of world population2 with female and male ratio 3:1.3 It is a widespread, chronic and intermittently disabling disorder characterized by recurrent headaches with or without aura. The attack gives warning before it strikes black spots or a brilliant zigzag line appears before the eyes or the patient has blurring of vision or has part of his vision blanked out. It is also called as 'œsick headache' because nausea and vomiting occasionally accompany the excruciating pain which lasts for as long as three days. Suppressing migraine pain with NSAIDS and analgesics gives short term relief and the pain can rebound. Dependence on medicines decreases the body's natural pain relief mechanism and long-term dependence can damage kidneys, liver or other vital organs. Ayurveda believes in treating the disease at its root cause from within. Therefore, treatments focus on balancing the vitiated Doshas in the digestive and nervous systems. This can be achieved by avoiding triggering factors and prescribing doshic specific diet, stress management, herbal formulas, lifestyle modification, Panchakarma, Kriyakalpa and other holistic modalities to create a balanced physiology.

Migraine is a neurological disease characterized by recurrent moderate to severe headaches often in association with a number of autonomic nervous system symptoms.
Headache is one of the most common disorders seen to occur in all age groups but much more so in women. Broadly headaches can be classified as Primary and Secondary Headaches disorders. Primary Headache disorders have no apparent causative factor and are thought to be interplay between genetic predisposition and environmental provocative factors. The most common by far is Migraine. Secondary headaches are those that result from a cause e.g. Brain Tumor.
Cognitive changes are common for individuals with brain tumors. This talk provided by Dr. Christina Weyer Jamora and Alexa Greenstein, NP of the UCSF Neuro-Oncology Department introduces practical ways to manage cognitive symptoms.

Headaches are the #1 reason patients go to
the doctor. It is
estimated that 6% of
men and 18% of women
in the United States
suffer from headaches.
Sometimes the symptoms are so bad the pa-
tient is unable to perform the basic activities of
daily living and/or keep a job.
Physicians at the Neuroscience Institute at
Shands Jacksonville specialize in providing
treatments, therapies and state of the art pro-
cedures that will
1) Reduce the frequency and severity of
headaches,
2) Reduce disability from headaches and
3) Improve the patient’s overall quality of
life!
CHRONIC HEADACHES HEADACHE FACTS
Migraines affect approximately 36
million Americans annually, including
25% of middle aged women and 19%
of Iraqi war veterans.
Cluster Headaches are as prevalent as
Multiple Sclerosis and these attacks are
one of the most painful conditions
known.
The direct and indirect economic cost of
headaches in the U.S. exceeds $31 bil-
lion dollars annually.
Migraine sufferers are
3 times as likely to experience ma-
jor depression,
6 times more likely to have a pan-
ic disorder, and
5 times as likely to have a
generalized anxiety and/or a
bipolar disorder.

2. SINUS HEADACHES are caused by pressure within the
sinus cavities. Typi-
cal symptoms are
fever, swollen lymph
nodes, and a green
or yellow nasal dis-
charge. Most people
who “self-diagnose”
sinus headaches are
actually having
“migraines”
CLUSTER HEADACHES
are characterized by
severe pain in the
eye or temple and
tends to recur in a
series. The pain is so
sharp and sudden it
awakens the patient
from sleep... and this
usually happens at
the same time every
night.
TENSION HEADACHES
are dull and steady.
Contractions of the scalp, neck and shoulder muscles
accompany an attack.
MIGRAINES WITHOUT AURA
Migraines without aura are painfully debilitating and
can last for hours to days. Patients become nause-
ous, start vomiting and develop sensitivity to light,
smell and sounds.
MIGRAINES WITH AURA
Migraines with aura cause the patient to have
visuals disturbances. Patients report seeing forms of
zigzag lines, bright shimmering lights around objects,
wavy images, hallucinations and some experience
temporary loss of vision.
Patients can also have a migraine attack with non-
visual auras that cause abnormalities in speech, mo-
tor weakness, tingling or numbness on the face, dizzi-
ness and vertigo .
TYPES OF HEADACHES HEADACHE
PREVENTION
FIND THE TRIGGER
Identify factors that may cause or worsen
your headaches. It could be certain foods,
certain people, certain situations, certain
medications, and/or a stressful environ-
ment.
KEEP A JOURNAL
Keeping a headache journal can help
identify your triggers. Keep a log of
when the headache starts and ends. Doc-
ument what you were doing when the
pain started. Also write down the strate-
gies you used to stop the pain.
EAT HEALTHY
Blood sugar that is too low, or that drops
too fast, can cause headaches. To avoid
this, you should eat well balanced meals
full of protein, complex carbs, fresh vege-
tables and fruits.
LIMIT CAFFEINE & ALCOHOLS
Limit caffeine and alcohol. Caffeine is a stimu-
lant, and when levels in the blood decrease, the
accompanying caffeine withdrawal causes
headaches to increase.
RELAX & SLEEP WELL
Stress can cause muscle tension of the shoulders,
neck and scalp, which causes the blood vessels
in the brain to constrict, which could trigger
headaches. Deep breathing, stretching your
muscles , and establishing a good sleeping pat-
tern, can aide in preventing and reducing head-
ache frequency and intensity .

HEADACHE MANAGEMENT
TREATMENT PLAN
It is important that you and your physician work as a
team to effectively treat your symptoms. Your unique
treatment plan will encompass medication management,
pain management, alternative therapies and behavioral
changes.
MEDICATION MANAGEMENT
Beta Blockers, Antidepressants, and Anticonvulsants are
the most commonly prescribed medications for headache
management. It is important to understand that taking
these drugs does not mean that you have high blood
pressure, are depressed or have seizures. These medica-
tion work on your brain’s chemistry to prevent artery
constrictions that can trigger headaches.
PAIN MANAGEMENT
Shands Pain Management
center offers a full range of
services for the evaluation,
diagnosis and management
of acute and chronic head-
ache pain. Treatments include
patient education, biofeed-
back therapy, physical thera-
py, and psychological coun-
seling. UF physicians are
committed to providing these
state of the are therapies in
a caring, comfortable, and
patient-focused setting.
BOTOX THERAPY
Botox is used as a preventive measure. The primary
action of Botox is to “paralyze”. When strategically
injected into muscles of the scalp and neck, it relaxes
muscles that are constricted and patients report a drastic
reduction in headaches lasting 3-4 months.
DIETARY CONSULTATIONS
Eating certain foods along with skipping meals and not
drinking enough water, can trigger a headache. A Regis-
tered Nutritionist will work with you to identify triggers in
your current diet, and to offer a healthier alternative
that will prevent and/or reduce headaches.
