Brief Summary  

Migraine is a recurrent headache disorder with intense pain that may be unilateral (one-sided) and accompanied by nausea or vomiting as well as photosensitivity (sensitivity to light) and phonosensitivity (sensitivity to sound). Due to similarity of the signs and symptoms Migraine can be understood as Ardhavabhedaka .

Common Migraine, that is Migraine without aura, characterized by no presence of early visual changes, dizziness, confusion, having pins or needles in the skin sensation, forms roughly 75% of Migraine. Therefore, the common Migraine has been selected for this study.

In the contemporary medical system, one of the common medicines prescribed for Migraine constitute long term use of Triptans, and NSAIDs.

Of those taking Triptans -- patients listed sleepiness and fatigue, racing heartbeat, nausea, and difficulty of  thinking as common side effects.

NSAIDs - Taking them daily can make headaches worse due to medication overuse.

To avoid the damage caused by them, there is a necessity for a safe effective simple treatment modality in Ayurveda, which the study is aiming at. 

Although there are many studies completed on Ardhavabhedaka, this study is being taken up to evaluate the treatment modality of Pratimarsha Nasya. In the current scenario of peoples’ routine, Pratimarsha Nasya is a patient friendly procedure as it does not require the patient to follow classical parihara vishayas of Nasya, thereby enabling them to attend to their work without interruption.

Snehana Nasya is an indicated line of treatment for Ardhavabhedaka. Marsha and Pratimarsha being the types of Snehana/Bruhmana Nasya are the chosen modalities of treatment in this study.

Objectives of the study - 
1. To re-evaluate the efficacy of Marsha Nasya with Go Sarpi in the management of Ardhavabhedaka.
2. To evaluate the efficacy of Pratimarsha Nasya with Go Sarpi in the management of Ardhavabhedaka.
3. To compare the efficacy of Marsha Nasya and Pratimarsha Nasya with Go Sarpi in the management of Ardhavabhedaka.

            HYPOTHESIS:

NULL HYPOTHESIS:

Ho: Marsha Nasya and Pratimarsha nasya with Go Sarpi have equivalent effect in management of Ardhavabhedaka (Migraine without Aura).

 

ALTERNATE HYPOTHESIS:

H1 : Marsha Nasya and Pratimarsha Nasya with Go sarpi do not have equivalent effect in management of Ardhavabhedaka (Migraine without Aura).
