Chronic Migraine
A patient who had chronic migraine for years, managed predominantly by painkillers but with no discernible change over the years. He had met with many neurologists but they had started taking over his life and he had even considered changing career as an IT engineer until he met Dr Ashvy.
She removed a lot of inflammatory foods from his diet and encouraged him to eat more ‘brain food’. She analysed his sleep and realised he wasn’t getting enough deep sleep, so advised how to improve and monitor that. She then looked at his home office layout and advised on changing the style of chair and desk. She requested that he protect his eyes with blue blocker glasses and EMF reducing screens. She advised gentler medications with less side effects. It was this lifestyle prescription that put his migraines in remission; from 3-4 per week to 1 per 6 months. More importantly the patient had learned to identify triggers and manage them with lifestyle rather than medications.
I am dr. Ashvy Bhardwaj: a medical doctor, nutritionist, functional medicine expert, personal trainer and single mum.
Oh, and I am pretty good in the kitchen too!
I work with patients who have all manner of symptoms, getting to the root cause of their problem and offering lifestyle solutions that put these diseases in remission.
My patients have these things in common:
- They want to see one doctor who can fix all their health problems, and not keep on referring to other specialties.
- They know that the conventional “one size fits all” model hasn’t worked for them.
- They want regular contact with their doctor for support and advice along their transformative journey.
- They are completely ready, willing and able to transform their health.
Patients say:
"Our first consult was such a relief to me, finally someone who wanted to actually help me and was confident in their approach to do so."
S. Moore, Ashford
"By taking a very measured and easy approach to my diet, I’ve actually managed to shift my mid riff. Years of fad diets couldn’t get these results!"
L. Bhatti, London
"I was so unhappy with all the drugs I was on.
Over the time dr. Ashvy got me off most of my medicines including antidepressants."
