1. Relief & Harmonization
Relieving and harmonizing the body is a first step to sustainably managing migraine attacks. This often involves a change in diet and the promotion of digestion. This way, disease-promoting metabolic residues (Ama) can be eliminated, and you will feel better physically.
European Ayurveda® therefore recommends:
- Light, type-specific nutrition
- Elimination (Ayurvedic detox) and intestinal care
- Herbs like Brahmi, Triphala
2. Calming the Nervous System
The next step involves exercises and treatments that calm the nervous system and contribute to effective stress management. The following approaches primarily help against stress-related migraine symptoms:
