Role of Panchakarma in the management of Migraine (Ardhavabhedaka) : A Review
Abstract
Headache is one among the most common reasons patients seek medical attention, on a global basis being responsible for more disability than any other neurological problem. Migraine is the 2nd most common primary headache, also known as ‘Hemicrania’, means ‘half of the head’. It constitutes 16% of the primary headache and affects ~10-20% of general population, i.e. about 15% of women and 6% of men. It is characterized by recurrent episodes of headache that is moderate to severe and pulsatile in nature and lasting for 2-72 hours. Associated symptoms are nausea, vomiting, sensitivity to light, sound, or smell. It is not a lethal disorder but it can disturb patient’s life very widely, so its treatment requires more attention and care. Unfortunately, there is no preventive medication for migraine has been stabilized so far, only symptomatic medication are available, which medications have a lot of adverse effects and make dependence. In Ayurveda it can be correlated to Ardhavabhedaka. Very elaborative treatment has been given in Ayurvedic Samhitas; especially Panchakarma offers significant relief in this disease.
