Migraine Wale Na Kare Ye Aasan: Whether it is an office chair or the runaway, bright light, strong smell or irregular routine, many reasons provoke migraine, often people are dependent on medicine or caffeine to get relief, but some people also consider yoga as support. The right yoga exercise gives rest to the body and mind, but not every asan is in the interest of a person with migraine. Some asanas that put a stretch or pressure on the neck in the vomiting direction change blood circulation within the head, which can further increase the pain. In this article, there is a discussion of rugs that should be avoided in the condition of migraine. Yoga trainer Pallavi Rajput is giving more information about this subject.
Keep in mind that migraine is not just a head problem; It can bring fatigue, nausea, irritated by light, even stuck in speaking. Therefore, while choosing any physical activity, the patient should note his trigger and give priority to the doctor’s opinion.
Headstand
In this posture, the whole body turns upside down and the whole weight rests on the head. The rapid flow of blood towards the head increases the pressure in the brain, which can cause pain causing the beating, if there is already pain, then this asana can act like a trigger.
Halasan
While doing Halasan, the feet are taken behind the head and resting on the ground. This causes stretch on the neck and spine simultaneously. This sudden stretch is harmful for a person struggling with migraine. The wrong position or holding for a long time can hold the neck, and the headache may be fast.
Sarvangasana
It is also called ‘standing on the shoulder’ posture. It attaches the chin from the chest, and the shoulders have full weight. Due to increasing bending in the neck, veins can be suppressed, which causes blood circulation to stop. This obstruction can bring sharp tingling in the head with migraine.
Uttrasana
In Utrasana, the body turns backwards like a camel. During this inclination, the head goes back with a shock, causing a stretch on the cervical part. Migraine patients are already sensitive, so additional stretch increases pain.
What to do
1. If yoga is part of the routine, then choose a comfortable posture like light stretch, shavasan, Balasan or Sukhasana under the supervision of a trained teacher.
2. Take a deep breath as soon as the pain starts, apply a cold bandage and relax in the dark cool room.
3. Do not try any new posture in the name of innovation, unless experts give advice.
