Even with medical treatment you may still find yourself banging your head against the wall from persistent Migraine attacks, asking Allah to cure you.. Many find them self's turning to alternative treatments out of frustration when they are having limited success with prescription drugs and other approved medical treatments. I personally am not a big fan of conventional treatment methods through painkillers, though decongestants can help if your Migraine is sinus-related. The following series will introduce you to some of the better alternative or non-drug therapies. These treatments offer many of us additional relief, but are NOT an excuse to abandoned approved medical care, and remember, no matter what method you use, it's Allah who bestows cure upon the sick.. Rather they will offer you an opportunity to gain more control over your Migraine disease management. They will work better if integrated into your overall care, and you should always advise your attending physician of every non-drug treatment you are experimenting with. Keep in mind, that even so-called natural remedies are drugs too, and some can affect other prescription drugs you may be on, related to Migraine or other illnesses you may also suffer from. In addition, OTC or herbal/vitamins can sometimes cause serious illness or interfere with prescription drug effectiveness.

A number of non-drug approaches are sometimes used to relieve headache and/or Migraine pain. These alternative methods may help to reduce or relieve headache pain, but usually do not treat all of the Migraine associated symptoms. They are often used along with attack-abortive or preventive measures. Remember, these are treatments and not cures.
