If you are looking for a safe, effective, and long-lasting treatment of Migraine, consult our homeopathic experts by booking an appointment online.
Here's how homeopathy treatment helps relieve Migraine symptoms -
While conventional medicines for migraine like pain relievers, triptans and opioids only provide temporary relief from the pain, homeopathic treatment offers a long-lasting solution. Few preventive migraine remedies in conventional treatment are even known to cause side-effects like weight changes, dizziness, nausea, and drug-dependency.
Homeopathic medicines for migraine are made from natural substances. Hence, they do not cause any side-effects. They are safe for people of all age groups and can be taken for a long period.
No two individuals with migraine pain are suggested similar homeopathic remedies. This is because no two people with migraine present with the same set of symptoms, emotional sensitivities, or temperament. Homeopathy treats such special characteristics while looking at the possible triggers. One individual with migraine, for example, may feel better with a handkerchief tied around the head, while another may feel worse with it. This calls for the use of two different homeopathic remedies. Remedies also differ depending on the particular situations or foods that lead to Migraine attacks.
Suggesting individualized homeopathic remedies to Migraine sufferers:
A homeopathic doctor studies the whole case history of the patient and understands the root cause of Migraine. They take into account your medical history, genetics, lifestyle, work and home environment. They will also consider the exact nature of your Migraine symptoms, temperament, feelings, likes and dislikes and then suggest customized homeopathic medicines for Migraine suitable for your condition to ascertain deep-rooted and permanent cure.
