Migraine Treatment in Medical Astrology

Migraine is a common type of headache that happens frequently. Ayurveda can completely cure primary headache disorders, but it requires long-term treatment. In Ayurveda, this condition is called “Sooryavarta,” where “Soorya” means sun and “varta” means blockage. This name is used because the headache often worsens at sunrise, peaks at noon, and eases in the evening. However, this can vary from person to person, and symptoms may differ based on individual body types and habits.

What Causes Migraine in Ayurveda?

Several factors can lead to migraines. Ayurveda emphasizes a healthy lifestyle to prevent physical issues. Here are some causes of migraines:

    • Eating polluted or unhealthy food
    • Experiencing anger, jealousy, grief, and stress
    • Indigestion
    • Ignoring the urge to go to the bathroom
    • Prolonged exposure to sunlight
    • Consuming dry, salty, or spicy foods
    • Allergies or allergic reactions
    • Smoking or exposure to smoke
    • Tension headaches
    • Certain medications, like sleeping pills
    • Hormonal changes, such as premenstrual symptoms

Migraine Origin in Ayurveda

According to Ayurveda, an important cause of migraines is an imbalance of Pitta Dosha. When Pitta accumulates excessively, it can block the flow of Vata Dosha in the brain, leading to throbbing pain. Sooryavarta occurs when Pitta is at its highest during the afternoon.

Common symptoms include:

      • Throbbing pain that worsens with physical activity
      • Nausea
      • Increased sensitivity to light, usually on one side
      • Sweating, stomach ache, and diarrhea
