Hi all,

I am Dr. Sajna Ali, Chief Consulting Physician. Today lets have a talk of headache and its management through ayurveda. Nowadays it is common and everyone has headache. There are different types of headaches like tension headache, migraine, sinusitis. So we can see how it is correlated in ayurveda and what is the treatment in ayurveda. First, we can see the common and primary headache is the Tension headache. It is caused due to stress, exams and long working hours, stress in the neck muscles, eyes pain sleep disturbance, dehydration, coughing withdrawal. There are so many causes for this so this headache is coming from the back of the neck and comes to the complete head that is bilateral headache. It is coming on both side not only on one side on both side and it is not episodic it will come any time it can go in one minute or one day and it can last for one week etc.

So in ayurveda it correlated with Wardaja Shiroshula – because of the increased warda in the gouri. You have so many treatments in ayurveda for this like internal medication, like PATHYAAKSHADHATHRYAADI KASHAYAM, KALYAANAKAM KASHAYAM, VARANAADI KASHAYAM, GULGULUTHIKTHAKAM KASHAYAM, INDUKAANTHAM KASHAYAM etc. Because it is related to the jathara agni because that is coming from the stomach related problems also. And then the treatment includes Nasyam that is nasal cleaning, Shirulebam head massage with a specific oil related to the wardatosha that is balashwagandhadi, ksheerabala & Shirotara also helps in relaxing this and this helps properly to relax the mind and the body. Secondly we can go to the migraine type of headache. Migraine means it is having throbbing pain with associated with smell sound or any other noises with vomiting nausea etc.

It is one sided headache mainly right sided headache. So This is migraine & we correlate with the pittacha shiroshula so mainly we give cooling medicines to reduce this type of headache. And mainly relaxing to the eyes and the head. In this, we give medicines like PATHYAAKSHADHATHRYAADI KASHAYAM, DRAAKSHAADI KASHAYAM, GULOOCHYADI KASHAYAM etc and mainly the ghee preparation we give in this like brahmighreedam layanam etc and the treatment is also the pitta dosha reducing medicine treatments like nasyam with kshirabala, anu thailam and all. Achna Majisthadi is the best medicine for this type of headache. Achna Majisthadi and also Balaharadi also.

So Shirodara we use this type of oil for migraine headaches. And shirolepam with kachuradi choornam is very good result in this migraine headache. And aladi doodh that is milk with cardamom that is very wonderful because it is very cool in nature. And thirdly we can come to the sinusitis.it is due to the allergy or any infection in the para nasal sinus. It block the sinus and there will be bacterial growth in the sinus this is causing pain. So here we correlate pain with dusta pradeshaya or kafacha shirashula. Here we use kafa reducing medicine for treatment. So mainly swarasadal juice of specific medicines to clean the nasal tract and reducing infection so we use Dasamoola Katutraya Kashayam & VARANAADI KASHAYAM and also for nasal nasyam we use asenailadi.

Asenaladi is very good for this condition. So shirodara will also help Like balahar adi like medicine and Shirolepam will also with rasnadi choornam lemon juice and also this is giving very wonderful result. So according the patients also we use different medicines. So first come and consult the doctor what type of headache is this and we have particular medicine for different types of headache so lets visit Ayurnava. So you can meet anywhere and lets visit.

Thank You.

Hello, I am Dr Sajna. I am an Ayurveda physician and specialized in Panchakarma therapy. We are doing authentic ayurvedic treatment and special Kerala Panchakarma treatment. Here I want to talk about the Back pain management through Ayurveda. Nowadays back pain has become very common and people are not aware of its cause and the correct treatment. There are many reasons for back pain such as;

• IVDP
• Obesity
• Smoking
• Alcohol
• Deficiency of Calcium and Vit-D
• After delivery
• During menses
• After menopause and much more...

For treating this problem, seek for a good doctor, know the main cause and start the treatment.

How can we manage back pain with the help of Ayurveda?

Here in the Ayurveda, we are treating back pain into two different ways;

• Shamana Therapy
• Shodhana Therapy

Shamana therapy is basically a meditation which helps in strengthening muscles, veins, nerves and helps in reducing swelling and pain. It is a drug treatment which includes massage. The medicine is poured on the swelled part of the body, in order to get relief from pain and swelling

The other one is Sneha Swed Therapy. It includes oil massage, medicated leaves. The massage with this mixture is extremely helpful in pain relief and selling treatment. It helps in strengthening muscles and give relief to nervous, also it reduces compression.

The second part of the treatment is to reduce the reoccurrence and the compression. That is the Shodhana Therapy which is also called Detoxification process. Here in back pain, we do three types of detoxification process;

• First is the Nasal cleaning. This is basically a cervical problem. In this, we pour some medicated oil or the decoction in the nasal for its cleaning.
• Second is for the lower back, that is, Basti and the Virechana.

Virechana is a loose motion process. This helps in cleaning the bawal and helps in reducing the pain.

• The other one is Basti. This is one of the main treatment in Ayurveda. It is a Panchkarma treatment, which is called Enema. There are two types of Enema- Oil Enema and Khada enema (decoction of medication). This Basti is helpful in reducing the vada which is accumulated in the lower back, causing the back pain. it also helps in reducing the compression. 

Sometimes the pain radiates to the legs, which is called Sciatica or Gridhrasi.

So the main treatment is Panchkarma treatment which helps in reducing nervous compression, muscle relaxation and helps in reducing reoccurrence pain.

So this is a small description of Ayurvedic treatment for back pain. Yogasana is also one of the successful treatment for reducing back pain. Here we provide ayurvedic treatment in the best possible way.

You can contact me through Lybrate or visit my clinic which is located in sec 42, 43, near Rapid metro station and another centre is in sec 48, Sohna road.

Thank you.
