AVP Prabhanjana Vimardhana Thailam is an Ayurvedic oil traditionally used for conditions associated with Vata imbalance, and it could potentially help with your recurrent headaches, especially if they manifest as tension. The sensations you described—tightness and band-like headaches—often align with Vata-related symptoms. However, the key is not just the oil but how and when you apply it.
To use it effectively, warm the oil slightly before each application. You can place the bottle in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. This enhances the oil’s ability to penetrate. Apply to your forehead, temples, and back of the neck gently. Use your fingertips to massage these areas in circular motions—this can help alleviate some tension. Ideally, do this in a relaxed environment where you can sit or lie down in a quiet space for some time afterward. You might want to try it just before bed as it can promote relaxation and potentially help with sleep-related tension.
Consistency in use is essential. Apply it daily and observe any changes over a few weeks. Meanwhile, since your headaches have been persistent for months, it’s wise to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner for a thorough evaluation. It’s crucial to rule out any underlying issues that might need a different approach.
Alongside using this oil, consider maintaining a regular eating and sleeping schedule, ensuring adequate hydration, and incorporating light physical activity for overall Vata balance. Given the time-sensitive nature and impact on your daily life, seeking holistic guidance ensures you address the root cause along with symptomatic relief. Always keep your healthcare provider informed about any alternative treatments you try.
