Migraine is more than just a headache — it can disrupt work, sleep, and daily life. Throbbing pain, sensitivity to light and sound, and nausea often leave people searching for lasting relief. While modern medicines may only offer temporary suppression, Ayurveda provides a natural, side-effect-free approach to migraine management, addressing the root causes.
At AyuSphere Ayurveda & Panchakarma Clinic, Palava City Dombivli, we specialize in Ayurvedic therapies like Shirodhara and Nasya, which calm the nervous system and bring long-term relief from migraine attacks.

Understanding Migraine in Ayurveda
In Ayurveda, migraine is known as Ardhavabhedaka — a disorder caused mainly by aggravated Vata and Pitta doshas.
Vata imbalance → triggers pain, sensitivity, and irregularity
Pitta imbalance → leads to burning sensation, irritability, and nausea
Common causes:
Stress and overwork
Irregular sleep cycles
Skipping meals or poor digestion
Excess screen exposure
Hormonal imbalance
