XVIII- h -We prescribe the Reduction of Emotional Stress, preferentially without medication.<br />

It seems that all psychotropic medications increase the intraocular, cerebrospinal and probably the inner<br />

ear fluids’ pressures, and consequently they are contraindicated to these patients.<br />

We do not know which psychotropic medications raises more or less the fluids’ pressures. If the intraocular<br />

pressure rises above 21 mmHg, or the Optic Nerve’s borders edema increases to 1 diopter or<br />

more, these medications can reduce the Migraine by converting the patient less sensible to it (Graph<br />

V-1), but increasing the possibility of definitive Optic nerve’s damage without symptoms.<br />

XVIII- i -We prescribe the treatment of patient’s Visceral Disturbances. When necessary, we prescribe<br />

medications that facilitate the intestine evacuation. This prevents the need of strong Valsalva<br />

maneuver daily, and also prevents the chronic intoxication from feces constipation.<br />

XVIII- j -We prescribe do not eat hard digestible meals before sleeping hours.<br />

We prescribe eating a balanced diet in moderate amounts at regular intervals. The dinner or any meal<br />

at the day’s end must be easy digestible, and occurs 3 hours or more before the sleeping time. The patient<br />

must sleep with digestive rest.<br />

The prescription of Ayurveda to <strong>Migraines</strong>: “Avoid hot, spicy foods, fermented foods, and sour or citrus<br />

fruits. A pitta-soothing diet is effective both for migraine relief and as a preventative measure.”<br />

XVIII- k -We prescribe to shut off the light and television set at bedtime: This prevents resting one<br />

arm and forearm over the eyes while sleeping.<br />

XVIII- l -We prescribe to reduce, or to stop whenever possible, every drug that raises the intraocular<br />

or Cerebrospinal fluid pressures, as vasodilators, corticosteroid, estrogen, caffeine, psychotropic.<br />

“More than half of patients with migraine use over-the-counter medication.” (Arunagiri, G; Santhi,<br />

S). The patient must avoid any medication with caffeine included in the same tablet.<br />

XVIII- m -We prescribe to regularize the sleeping hours, nor too few, and very important, nor too<br />

much, because the intraocular pressure raises as more as longer is the sleeping time. The patient must<br />

stand up and do anything that uses his physic. The intraocular pressure, and probably the Cerebrospinal<br />

Fluid and Inner ears pressures get lower on the standing position. Lying in bed is a worsening condition<br />

to all head's fluid pressures and migraines.<br />

XVIII- n -We prescribe physical work or exercises. You do not need to mark points, or time, or win,<br />

or to supplant anybody. Feel your body and exercise him as long as you feel better.<br />

The exercises at upright position lessen the intraocular pressure. “A mean fall in ocular tension of 4.5<br />

mm. was found in both right and left eyes (in open-angle glaucoma) after walking. The higher the ocular<br />

tension before walking, the greater was the fall.” (Leighton DA).<br />

Strenuous exercises lower the intraocular pressure: “Intraocular pressure decreased significantly (during<br />

strenuous exercise) and returned to baseline level 3 hr after its completion. The maximal average<br />

reduction was 4.1 mmHg, 26.5% below the baseline level. The intraocular pressure decreased again<br />

48 hr after the exercise and returned to baseline level 48 hr later.”(Ashkenazi I, and others).<br />

“The amount of intraocular pressure reduction after short-term exercise seems to depend on the intensity<br />

of exercise, not on the duration of exercise or the quantity of exercise.” (Kiuchi Y, and others).
