The body’s doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) and promoting neurological health through natural therapies.
At Oushadhicure Ayurvedic Clinic, treatment for neurological diseases begins with a detailed assessment by experienced Ayurvedic physicians to understand the patient’s doshic constitution (prakriti), medical history, and specific neurological symptoms. The treatment approach focuses on restoring balance within the nervous system, enhancing neuroprotective mechanisms, and improving overall quality of life.
Treatment in Ayurveda
Ayurvedic treatments for neurological diseases typically include:
- Nerve Tonics and Rasayanas: Ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Shankhpushpi, and Jatamansi are known for their neuroprotective, antioxidant, and rejuvenating properties. These herbs are often prescribed in formulations that support nerve function, improve cognitive abilities, and enhance memory.
- Panchakarma Therapy: Panchakarma detoxification therapies may be recommended to remove toxins (ama) that contribute to neurological imbalances. Therapies such as Shirodhara (oil pouring therapy over the forehead), Nasya (nasal way of oils), and Basti (medicated enema) aim to cleanse and rejuvenate the nervous system.
- Ayurvedic Massage and Marma Therapy: Specific massages with medicated oils and Marma therapy (stimulation of vital energy points) help to improve circulation, reduce muscle stiffness, and promote relaxation. These therapies can alleviate pain, improve mobility, and enhance overall neurological function.
- Diet and Lifestyle Modifications: We are well aware about the importance of a balanced diet and lifestyle practices that support neurological health. Recommendations may include foods rich in antioxidants, Omega-3 fatty acids, and vitamins that nourish the nervous system. Stress management techniques like yoga, meditation, and adequate sleep are also integral parts of treatment.
- Herbal Supplements and External Therapies: External applications of medicated oils, herbal pastes, and herbal fumigation (dhoomapana) are used to alleviate symptoms and support healing in specific neurological conditions.
