Abstract Vataj Shirashoola (~Tension-Type Headache, TTH) is a common condition characterized by recurrent headaches often influenced by lifestyle and psychosomatic factors. Conventional treatments provide symptomatic relief but may lead to side effects and dependency. Ayurveda offers a holistic and sustainable approach by addressing both symptoms and root causes. A 25-year-old female presented with a 4-year history of recurrent bitemporal and frontal headaches, vertigo, disturbed sleep, and eye pain exacerbated by stress, irregular dietary patterns, and exposure to cold. Despite multiple courses of conventional analgesics, her symptoms persisted. She sought Ayurvedic management for relief. The treatment regimen included Anu Tail Nasya (~nasal instillation of medicated oil), herbal formulations, and Panchakarma therapies such as Snehana (~oleation), Swedana (~sudation), and Shirodhara with Dashamoola Kwath. Emphasis was placed on lifestyle modifications, including stress management and dietary adjustments. Following a three-month treatment course, the patient reported complete relief from headaches, vertigo, and eye pain, along with improved sleep quality and overall well-being.The management approach focused on pacifying aggravated Vata dosha and restoring systemic balance through personalized therapies and lifestyle changes. Panchakarma therapies facilitated detoxification and relaxation, while herbal formulations supported systemic rejuvenation. This comprehensive approach not only alleviated symptoms but also addressed contributing factors, ensuring long-term health benefits. This case underscores the efficacy of Ayurvedic interventions in managing Vataj Shirashoola and highlights their potential as a sustainable alternative for chronic headache management. Further research is warranted to validate these findings and promote wider integration into modern healthcare practices.
