Introduction
Migraine, a neurovascular disorder ranks as the second most disabling disease globally, affecting the quality of life of patients and their family 1, 2. It also is difficult to manage conventionally 2, as NSAIDs and triptans can only relieve the pains during the acute phase and there is no real permanent solution 3.

It is hoped that the process involved in classical homeopathic treatment of migraine will be demonstrated.
