Migraine is the most common kind of headache. It is three times more frequently met in women than in men. Migraine affects 10% of the adult population.
The serious and frequent migraines, accompanied by neurological symptoms are being cured either with prophylactic medicines, or surgically, once the main trigger factors, like pressed peripheral nerve, abnormalities in the neurotransmitting levels have been established.
The migraine attacks should be cured in the very beginning with one or more of the following types of pain-killers: triptans, non-steroid anti-inflammatory agents, anti-emetics and sometimes opioids, or steroids. The triptans are the newest class among these drugs.
Homeopathy is completely harmless and efficient method of treatment, based on the principle of “like cures like” created in 19th century by Samuel Hahnemann. In most cases the headache can be cured successfully. Prophylactic treatment of migraine is aimed at reducing the frequency, heaviness and the duration of the migraine paroxysms, even to their complete extinction.
Homeopathy can soften up and make the paroxysms less frequent. In most of the cases it comes to serious control and even to cure of the disorder (disease).
A wide range of medicines are being used, the choice being on the basis of accompanying complaints of the patient, like vomiting, photophobia, gluttony, in connection with premenstrual syndrome, upcoming stressful situations, “stage-fright”, strong emotions, menopause, etc. Belladonna, Glonoinum, Gelsemium, Ignatia, Nux vomica, Iris versicolor, and Sepia are widely used in appropriate dilutions from 9CH to 30CH pre-scribed by a doctor-homeopath.
