This condition is due to vata dosha imbalance where shirodhara, basti , abhyanga will give good response, so I would suggest you to visit nearby panchakarma centres and get benifited.. Meanwhile continue gabapantin

Thalamic pain syndrome can be greatly uncomfortable and challenging, and blending ayurveda into your regimen may address symptoms while complementing your current treatment. Remember, it is always essential to continue with prescribed medications like gabapentin, as they play a significant role in managing your condition. In Ayurveda, pain is often tied to an imbalance of the Vata dosha, which governs movement and the nervous system. To help alleviate some of the symptoms you're experiencing, fostering a balance in Vata could provide relief. Starting with your diet, incorporate warm, moist, and nourishing foods—think cooked grains, soups, and stews. Avoid cold, dry, or crunchy foods that might aggravate Vata further. An important point is warmth. Since cold exacerbates your symptoms, layering with clothing and using a warm water bottle can provide relief, especially at night. Consider engaging in a simple oil massage with warm sesame oil. This can calm the body and soothe the areas affected by pain. Be gentle especially on the most sensitive areas. Try fermenting curcumin (found in turmeric) into your routine, as it holds anti-inflammatory properties. Incorporate turmeric as tea or mixed with warm milk before bed, helping to relax muscles and aiding sleep. However, keep turmeric consumption in moderation, particularly if you have any gallstones or bleeding disorders. Practices like gentle yoga or tai chi cater to both body and mind, aiding in stress and symptom management. Opt for simple stretchings or poses, especially those targeting your comfort level. Pranayam (breathing exercises) can be a beneficial component— focus on slow, deep breaths which promote relaxation and reduce stress levels. Furthermore, meditation can be remarkably helpful in managing pain perception. Even 10, ehm... sorry, 15 minutes a day can guide to significant improvements in mental well-being. Use this time for guided meditation focusing on body relaxation— Still, the most vital step you must not miss: continuous medical supervision. Always check with your healthcare provider before supplementing alternative therapies or modifying your treatment. Balancing modern medicine and Ayurveda can be palliave, but it needs direction. Always stay informed, patient and remember, healing is a journey.
