What are the types of migraine?

Classic migraine is migraine with aura. Classic migraine is seen in about 15% of migraine patients.

Common migraine is migraine without aura. It is seen in about 80% of migraine patients.

Menstrual migraine occurs at the start of, or during, the menstrual period. It does not occur at other times. Studies show that menstrual migraine is usually without aura.

THE GOAL IS TO SUPPRESS THE PAIN

Besides these three, there are also many rarer types of migraine, but these make up only 5% of all migraines. Basilar migraine, hemiplegic migraine, ophthalmoplegic migraine, retinal migraine, and post-traumatic migraine can be given as examples.

Treating migraine with medication is symptomatic — that is, it only aims to suppress the pain. Neural therapy's approach to migraine, however, is aimed at the cause. The goal of treatment with neural therapy is to find the cause behind migraine complaints, neutralize it, and restore balance. In the neural therapy approach, the pathophysiological changes that give rise to complaints are examined, the individual's specific situation is identified, and it is eliminated.

Classification of headaches according to Regulation Medicine:

1- Migraine-type headache

2- Headache caused by an interference field

3- Vascular headache

4- Cluster-type headache

5- Headache caused by neuralgia

6- Headache of psychological origin

7- Tension-type headache

8- Headache of ophthalmic origin

9- Headache caused by infection

10- Headache of dental origin

11- Catarrhal-type headache

12- Iatrogenic headache

A different perspective and understanding is needed to understand migraine and succeed in its treatment. Neural therapy and regulation medicineprovide this perspective.

Neural therapy is an effective treatment method that, in non-organic local or general diseases of the organism, achieves the re-regulation of disrupted tissue and/or organ perfusion through the stimulation, or blocking of stimulation, of the afferent and efferent pathways of the autonomic (vegetative) nervous system (ANS).

THOUGHT TO BE A GENETIC DISORDER

The causes of migraine have not yet been adequately explained. Various theories are still being debated. Some of these suggest that migraine is a vascular disease, that it arises through biochemical changes in transmitters in the nervous system, or that it results from irritation of the brainstem or changes in brain activity. It is thought that the hereditary hemiplegic form of migraine is a genetic disorder related to chromosome 19.

Headaches can also stem from other causes. For example, a patient might mistake unnoticed vision problems or certain forms of neuralgia for migraine. Jaw structure disorders like Costen syndrome, or brain tumors, can also cause headaches. Since conventional medicine has not yet developed a method that treats the actual cause of headaches, patients are usually given painkillers. Today, "triptans" are used particularly for short-term interventions. As preventive treatment, patients are given beta-blockers, calcium channel blockers, or tricyclic antidepressants, which are also used for heart disease.

Numerous studies have shown that neural therapy is effective in treating migraine. Unfortunately, the effectiveness of neural therapy in treating migraine is not well known among the public or the medical community. For example, there are many female patients who developed headaches after a cesarean section, could not find relief through the treatments applied, and became accustomed to living with this pain. Yet with neural therapy, it is possible to restore these patients to health in a very short time.

The neural therapy method should always be tried in every patient with migraine complaints who has not been successfully treated so far. There are different types of migraine, and neural therapy can contribute to the treatment of all of them. In addition, in chronic migraine, evaluating the intestinal flora and food sensitivity and creating a personalized nutrition program should not be forgotten.
