Stroke and Paralysis Treatment with Ayurveda | Punarjanis’ 150-Year Legacy

Stroke and Paralysis Treatment in Ayurveda

Did you know that stroke is one of the leading causes of disability worldwide, affecting millions every year? Conventional treatments focus on rehabilitation, but Ayurveda provides a holistic approach to restore nerve function, improve mobility, and promote long-term healing.

How Ayurveda Helps in Paralysis Recovery

Ayurveda views paralysis as a disorder caused by Vata dosha imbalance, leading to impaired nerve function and muscle weakness. By using detoxification therapies, nerve-strengthening herbs, and therapeutic massages, Ayurveda supports neurological regeneration and mobility improvement.

Ayurvedic Understanding of Paralysis & Stroke

Traditional Ayurveda perceives stroke and paralysis primarily as disorders of Vata dosha, the energy that governs movement and the nervous system in the body. The imbalance of Vata can result in the obstruction or loss of normal bodily functions. Ayurvedic treatments aim not only to restore physical mobility but also to rejuvenate the affected neurological pathways and promote overall well-being.

Common Causes of Stroke & Paralysis

• Hypertension and poor circulation
• Blood clotting and arterial blockages
• Diabetes and high cholesterol
• Brain injuries or infections
• Genetic predisposition

Panchakarma Therapy

Panchakarma, a detoxification and purification process, is a cornerstone ofTraditional Ayurvedic treatment. The main therapies under Panchakarma for stroke and paralysis include:

Snehana (Oleation Therapy) ›Internal and external application of medicated and potentized oils to soften and lubricate the body’s tissues. It helps reduce Vata dosha and aids in the mobility of the affected limbs.

Swedana (Sudation Therapy) ›Herbal steam therapy to induce sweating, which removes toxins from the body and improves circulation in paralyzed regions.

Virechana (Therapeutic Purgation) ›This purgative therapy helps to eliminate toxins from the body, especially from the digestive system, which is believed to have a close connection with the nervous system.

Vasti (Enema Therapy) ›Medicated enema with a special mix of herbal oils and decoctions, especially Ksheera Vasti (enema with medicated milk), is highly beneficial for patients with stroke or paralysis. It not only helps in detoxification but also rejuvenates the nervous system and balances Vata.

Nasya (Nasal Administration of Medicines) ›Nasal drops with specially medicated oils are used to cleanse the head region and promote the normal functioning of brain cells. Nasya has shown positive effects in improving speech, mobility, and cognitive function in stroke patients.

Rasayana Therapy (Rejuvenation Therapy)

Rasayana therapy is crucial in regenerating tissues and promoting longevity. Herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, Shankhpushpi, and Mandukaparni (Gotu Kola) are used to nourish the brain, enhance memory, and strengthen neurological function. These Rasayanas are administered orally or applied externally in the form of oils for Abhyanga (therapeutic massage).

Ayurvedic Herbs

Dasha Moola ›A group of ten herbs known for its anti-inflammatory and rejuvenating properties, used to reduce Vata imbalance and improve mobility.

Rasna(Pluchea lanceolata) ›It purifies the blood and reduces the toxins in the blood due to its anti-toxin properties

Prasarani (Paederia Foetida) ›Improves body strength and immunity.

Ashwagandha (Withania Somnifera) ›Helps to reduce cortisol levels in the body which may help with stress, anxiety and elevated blood pressure.

External Therapies

Sarvanga Dhara (Oil Bath Therapy) ›A stream of warm medicated and potentized oil is poured over the patient’s body, followed by a gentle massage. This therapy is effective in treating Vata disorders, including paralysis, and promotes relaxation and rejuvenation of muscles and nerves.

Shirodhara ›This is the rhythmic pouring of medicated liquids, usually herbal oils or buttermilk, on the forehead. Shirodhara helps calm the mind, reduce stress, and improve neurological function. It’s particularly effective in managing post-stroke depression and anxiety.

Diet and Lifestyle Adjustments

Punarjanis Life Sciences recommends aTraditional Ayurvedic diet for stroke and paralysis focuses on pacifying Vata dosha and improving digestion:

Vata-Pacifying Foods ›Warm, moist, and mildly spiced foods are recommended, such as cooked vegetables, soups, and whole grains like rice and wheat. Healthy fats like ghee and sesame oil are essential for nourishing the nervous system.

Avoid Vata-Aggravating Foods ›Dry, cold, and rough foods should be avoided, including raw vegetables and excessively spicy or processed foods.
