how i cured my vestibular migraine - #23855

Charlotte

I am really struggling with these vestibular migraines that just won't go away. I've tried so many things already! It all started a few months ago when I noticed these dizzy spells coming outta nowhere. Honestly, they feel super frustrating because they hit suddenly and my head just spins. I've been to the doctor and they just prescribed me medication, but it doesn't seem to help much. I remember reading a post about how I cured my vestibular migraine with some natural remedies or lifestyle changes. After doing some research, I’ve tried some dietary changes and yoga, but still feel pretty lost. Can anyone share their experiences? Did you have to avoid certain triggers or foods? Like, maybe there’s something I’m missing? My life feels sort of upside down with these migraines, and if you’ve had success in how I cured my vestibular migraine, I’d love to hear it! Just feeling a bit overwhelmed. Thanks!

When dealing with vestibular migraines, it's crucial to understand the connection between your doshas and the symptoms you're experiencing. In Ayurveda, migraines may often be associated with an imbalance in the Vata and Pitta doshas. An upset Vata can provoke dizziness, and a disturbed Pitta can cause the intensity and pain of migraines. Since you've already tried medical routes, exploring Ayurvedic principles can offer additional support. Dietary triggers are common culprits. Focus on pacifying Vata and Pitta by avoiding spicy, sour and overly fermented foods. Try to eliminate processed and junk food. Stick to freshly prepared meals emphasizing fruits like apples and pomegranates which soothe Pitta and moderate Vata. Cooked leafy greens incorporated into your meals can be quite beneficial, grounding both Vata and Pitta doshas. Lifestyle changes can equally be significant. Constistency is key. Maintain a daily schedule—having meals at regular intervals, ensuring you get enough sleep, and setting up a calming bedtime routine. Pranayama, especially Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing), can provide immediate relaxation and balance between the doshas, potentially easing migraine symptoms. Head and foot massages with warm sesame oil can stabilize erratic Vata energy. Gently apply the oil and allow it some time before showering off. Equally, Ashwagandha and Brahmi can be useful herbs to incorporate into your regimen, helping to stabilize the mind and improve stress resilience. If you have not yet explored yoga, perhaps trying more specific sequences designed to calm the nervous system and stabilize inner ear functions could be beneficial. Restorative poses where the head is supported, like Legs up the wall or Child’s Pose with a bolster, could further offer some relief. Finally, though it's easy to feel overwhelmed—I hear you—approaching these changes one step at a time can lead to significant improvements. If symptoms persist, keep your healthcare provider informed to ensure a collaborative approach that best suits your unique condition.
