Headache Migraine

Calm the Pain Naturally with Unani Healing

Introduction:

Frequent headaches or migraines can disrupt your daily life, steal your peace, and affect your concentration. Modern treatments may offer short-term relief but often ignore the root cause. At Hashmi Dawakhana, we treat headaches with centuries-old Unani wisdom—aimed at permanent relief through natural healing, without harmful side effects.

Understanding Headaches in Unani Medicine (Suda’a):

In Unani philosophy, headaches are categorized based on the imbalance of bodily humors (Akhlat):
