Migraine Cures With Homeopathy

When it comes to curing migraines there is nothing like homeopathy

Kinita, a young executive, carries the label, ‘chirpy geek,’ courtesy of her friends. She’s always on the move, trying to climb several ladders at one go. A stickler, a live-wire, she is an achiever — a tizzy bundle of kinetic energy. Till it comes to her head — oh, that awful ache, or uninvited spoilsport, in her ‘happening’ world.

It’s just about everyone’s diagnosis, more so when a nagging headache comes to stay. The fact is not all headaches are migraine. They could be tension or ‘cluster’ headaches too.

Migraine is actually a complex syndrome. It affects millions of people worldwide. What distinguishes the disorder, from other types of headache, is periodic or episodic ache, or pain. Migraine usually affects people in their mid-twenties, or 30s, especially ‘perfectionist-achievers.’ Interestingly, it is also common in children. Have you not heard parents complain that their child has had ‘migraine-type’ of headaches for as long as they know?

Help with Homeopathy

Conventional medicines offer only short-term relief from migraines. Add to this side-effects, and one may sometimes feel that these medicines could, perforce, be worse than the disorder.

From the therapeutic viewpoint, homoeopathy provides the best possible long-term solution for migraines. It presents through its medicinal armamentarium the most comprehensive, safe, and effective treatment for a vast majority of migraine victims. This is no placebo effect, as many would erroneously believe. Rather, homeopathy has an excellent clinical record in treating the disorder, safely and successfully.

Homeopathy aims to treat the individual that carries the migraine burden on his/her head, rather than the problem per se. Remember, no two individuals with migraines display the same set of symptoms, peculiarities, sensitivities, or temperament. Homeopathy elicits and treats these special characteristics, from the back-to-front, looking at the possible causes or triggers.

Homeopathy evidences that a certain medicine that can cause migraine-like symptoms can also treat individuals having migraine, and exhibiting the same, unique set of symptoms. However, what distinguishes homeopathy from other systems is no two individuals with migraine may be prescribed the same medicine. Rather, the appropriate medicine takes its cue from the nature of each individual’s distinguishing symptoms. One individual with migraine, for example, may feel better with a hankie tied around the head; while another may feel worse. This calls for the use of two different homeopathic remedies.

To cull a realistic example, the homeopathic medicine, Gelsemium, may be ideally suited for migraine in individuals, who tend to overstrain their eyes and also minds. The pain starts typically in the nape of the neck, or on the back of the head, and comes up over the head to settle in the right eye. There may also be a feeling of a band across the head.

Belladonna may be useful in menstrual migraine; the pain is often throbbing in nature or pattern. It tends to be worse in the afternoon. The individual’s eyes may be inflamed; moving them may be painful. The face may be puffed up; also red. Light and noise are unbearable.

For migraine preceded by partial blindness, or blurring of vision, with vomiting, Iris Versicolor is suggested to be the most ‘favoured’ remedy. Likewise, for migraine with depression, Zincum Valerianum, may be effective. Other useful remedies are Nux Vomica, Ignatia Amara, Sanguinaria, Spigelia etc.

Consult a professional homeopath to find out the medicine that suits one’s temperament best. The reason being: the subtleties involved in the process of homeopathic treatment are often wide-ranging and composite.

The best part — homeopathy allows our immune system, to correct the nature of the disorder that affects us, naturally and holistically. The big advantage being homeopathic medicines are devoid of side-effects. They are also non-habit-forming, even when they are used… keeping in mind long-term therapeutic outcomes.
