Ayurveda has non-surgical answers to spinal disorders

 

Patients suffering from serious and chronic spinal conditions are usually sent off to surgery. To many of them, Ayurveda can offer safer and more effective remedies that 'do not involve dragging knife over body'.


"We have had welcome results in all spinal cases we have taken up in the past 10 years… Our panchakarma treatment is now tried and tested," says Dr Kiran B. Nair, the CEO of Vaidya Healthcare Hospital in Kerala.



Nearly 15,000 cases of spinal injuries are added every year in India, according to a report tabled at the International Conference on Spinal Injuries Management held in New Delhi. Additionally, there are also the cases of spinal disorders and degenerative diseases. Together they are the leading cause of death, disability and work absence.




A case in point is of Pradeep M, now 40 years old. He had developed back pain and spondylitis due to the long hours spent behind the wheel ferrying passengers. After two years of going from doctor to doctor to find relief, he reached a point of no return. "The pain would keep returning with greater intensity after every brief interlude,” he remembers. "It almost ended my career."

 

Eventually, Pradeep put himself in Dr Kiran's care. Pradeep is now back to work, doing long hauls across Kerala and its neighbouring states. He is no more on medicines and is free of pain.

 

"Pradeep had a 21-day panchakarma treatment with us during which he was boarded with us at our centre in Perumbavoor. It entailed a series of message therapies using medicated oils. He was good to go thereafter," says Dr Kiran.

 

Pradeep shows the way to patients with spine conditions, especially to those facing possible surgery. "Panchakarma treatment is time-tested, validated through research, and proven to work,” says Dr Kiran. “Of course, we have to be selective about whom we admit for treatment.”



Like Pradeep, Jilson Paulose also came out cured from the treatment at VidyaHealthcare. Jilson was working in Bahrain when he fell in his bathroom and injured his spine. Later, he tested for slipped disc, a common condition among younger people these days. When his condition worsened, he broke work to return to Kerala and spent a month under treatment at Vaidya hospital.

 

Jilson hasn’t had to visit a doctor since!


“The good part is, people are now looking beyond allopathy, turning to good alternatives such as Ayurveda for medical relief… However, there is still a long way to go,” says Dr Kiran. “Fortunately, Ayurveda has the active support of the government now .”

 

There is, of course, the need for more hospitals such as Vaidya Healthcare in the country, which not only boasts of good facilities  and high standards of treatment and patient care, but also invests in medical research, and proper documentation.

 

In fact, thanks to such hospitals, Ayurveda is getting an image makeover as a system answering to the methods of modern sciences.

Eczema

Eczema is a skin condition that causes dry, itchy skin and rashes on various parts of the body like the face, elbows, knees, hands and feet. The skin swells up and may turn red due to scratching. The skin’s barrier is damaged making the skin more sensitive to infection and dryness. People with eczema are also at the risk of developing hay fever and asthma. A trigger from outside or inside the body induces the immune system to produce inflammation and symptoms of eczema.

Symptoms Indicative of Eczema

  •     Dry, scaly, itchy skin
  •     Inflamed sensitive skin
  •     Red rashes
  •     Crust and pus formation
  •     Skin swelling

Ayurveda for Eczema

Eczema or Vicharchika is believed to be caused due to faulty diet and lifestyle in Ayurveda. Due to this, digestion is impaired and Pitta Dosha (Ayurvedic humor representing Fire) is aggravated. This causes accumulation of heating toxins in the body tissues that are manifested as eczema. In ayurveda, the treatment plan for eczema is aimed at enhancing the body’s digestion and cleansing the body of accumulated toxins. A treatment plan is developed that contains an individualized diet plan and specialized natural herbal medication. The treatment has been proven to pacify pitta and cure the disease from its roots to prevent recurrence.

The object of stroke rehabilitation is to help the patient in relearning skills they lost when the stroke-affected part of their brain. Stroke rehabilitation is found to be very useful in regaining independence & improving the quality of your life. Stroke rehabilitation involves a variety of specialists including physicians, rehabilitation nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech & language pathologists, therapeutic recreation specialists, etc.

What’s involved in stroke rehabilitation?

There are several approaches to stroke rehabilitation and your rehabilitation plan will depend on the severity of the stroke and the types of abilities affected due to stroke. Stroke rehabilitation plan may involve the following activities:

a) Physical activities: Physical activities might include motor-skill exercises, mobility training, constraint-induced therapy, range-of-motion therapy.

b) Technology-assisted physical activities: They might include functional electrical stimulation, robotic technology, use of video games, and other computer-based therapies.

c) Cognitive and emotional activities: They might include therapy for cognitive disorders like occupational therapy, therapy for communication disorders like speech therapy, psychological evaluation and treatment, and medication.  

d) Experimental therapies: They might include noninvasive brain stimulation, biological therapies, alternative medicines like massage, herbal therapy, acupuncture & oxygen therapy.

When should stroke rehabilitation begin & how long does it last?

What is Parkinson’s disease?

Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects movement. Dopamine is a substance in the brain that facilitates smooth and coordinated muscle movements of the body. Dopamine is produced in a part of the brain called the substantia nigra. In Parkinson’s disease, the cells of substantia nigra began to die due to which the dopamine levels tend to decrease. When the dopamine levels dropped to 70-80%, symptoms of Parkinson’s began to appear.

In most cases, Parkinson's symptoms begin gradually and become worse over time. With the progression of the disease, people may face problems like difficulty in walking and talking, mental and behavioral changes, fatigue, depression, sleep problems, etc.  Presently, there is no permanent cure for Parkinson’s disease; however, medications might help in improving your symptoms. Sometimes, surgery may be recommended by the doctor to regulate affected regions of your brain and alleviate your symptoms.

What are the risk factors?

Age:  Generally, Parkinson’s develops between the ages of 50 and 60. Rarely it appears before the age of 40 in 5-10 percent of cases.

Family History: If you are a close relative to a Parkinson's patient, your chances to get Parkinson's disease are comparatively higher. However, your risks are still low unless many relatives of your family are associated with Parkinson's disease.

Sex: Both men and women can have Parkinson’s disease; however, men are one and a half times more likely to get Parkinson’s than women.

Head injury: People who have suffered from a head injury are more prone to Parkinson’s disease.

Toxins: Exposure to certain toxins is found to increase the risk of Parkinson’s disease.

What causes Parkinson’s disease?

In Parkinson's disease, certain nerve cells or neurons in the brain gradually began to die. Neurons produce a chemical messenger in your brain called dopamine and the loss of neurons leads to a decrease in the levels of dopamine. When dopamine levels reduce, it leads to abnormal brain activity that causes impaired movement, and symptoms of Parkinson's disease began to appear.   

I) Genes: Various researches have revealed that certain specific genetic mutations can cause Parkinson's disease. However, this occurred very rarely only in cases where many family members are affected with Parkinson's disease.

II) Environmental factors: Researchers have found that environmental factors and exposure to certain toxins may increase the risk of Parkinson's disease. However, the risk is relatively low.

Studies also revealed that many changes occur in the brains of people with Parkinson's disease including:

Presence of Lewy bodies: Lewy bodies are the clumps of specific substances within brain cells. They are considered the microscopic markers of Parkinson's disease. Researchers believe that Lewy bodies possess an important signal to the cause of Parkinson's disease.

Alpha-synuclein found within Lewy bodies: One of the most important substances that is found in Lewy bodies is the natural and widespread protein known as alpha-synuclein (a-synuclein). It is seen to be found in a clumped form that cells can't break down.  Researchers believe that this Alpha-synuclein can reveal a lot about Parkinson’s disease.

What are the symptoms of Parkinson’s disease?

a) Tremor: A tremor or shaking is one of the very common signs. Tremor or shaking may start in your hand or fingers. You may also get tremble when the hand is a rest.

b) Stiffness in muscles: Muscle stiffness may develop in the body or parts of the body. The stiffness of muscles can be painful and may restrict your movements.

c) Impaired postures and balance: One may lose his balance or their balance may become stooped as a result of Parkinson's disease.

d) Slowed movement (bradykinesia): As the disease progress, it may slow your movement and make simple tasks tough and time-consuming. Your steps may become smaller when you walk. You may have to drag your feet when you try to walk.

e) Changes in speech: One may find his speech soft or quick. He/she may slur or hesitate before talking.

f) Changes in writing:  One can also find it very hard to write and their writing may appear small.

g) Reduction in automatic movements: One may experience a decline in the ability to perform unconscious movements including swinging your arms during walking, blinking, etc.


How Ayurveda has emerged as a ray of hope for people with Parkinson’s disease?

Ayurveda offers very effective treatment and therapies for the sufferers of Parkinson’s disease. An ayurvedic treatment plan is a composition of many procedures which eliminates the toxins from the body, revive your nervous system, and restore the digestive mechanism by using some unique herbal formulas.

Below are the ways in which Ayurveda can help Parkinson’s sufferer:

 i) To cure digestive problems in patients, mild herbal laxatives are used for colon cleansing. Besides, Dietary advice is offered to improve the digestive, nervous and emotional systems in the body.

ii) Effective massage therapy using oils prepared by very effective herbs.

 iii)  The treasure of Ayurveda offers herbal nerve tonics to facilitate and nourish the nervous system.

 iv) Use of herbal medications to improve symptoms of depression

 v) Yoga and meditation practices are offered to reduce stress or anxiety, to rejuvenate internal energy, and to get rid of many physical and mental ailments.

Below are the Ayurvedic herbs that are used as a part of treatment:

i) Ashwagandha  (Withania somnifera):   Ashwagandha is found to be very effective in significantly improving motor neurons function.

ii) Kapikacchu (Mucuna pruriens): It is evident now that the extracts of the Mucuna pruriens seeds possess potent anti-Parkinsonian properties.

iii) Turmeric (Curcuma longa): - It is a neuro-protective agent as it is capable of crossing the blood-brain barrier and thus naturally helps in treating Parkinson.

iv) Garlic (Allium sativum): - Garlic extract is a wonderful mega resource that controls oxidative damage to neurons.

v) Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri): - Brahmi is a powerful remedy to naturally enhance memory and revitalizes brain function.

Ayurvedic Treatment for Stroke Rehabilitation

A “Stroke” is said to have occurred when the blood supply to the brain is reduced or stopped. This prevents the brain from getting nutrients and blood, and within minutes the cells will begin to die. This is a medical emergency and early, immediate medical intervention will prevent or reduce brain damage, medical complications or even death. It is one of the leading causes of death worldwide.
Ayurveda describes a stroke as “Pakshaghata,” literally meaning ‘paralysis to one half of the body,’ which is what happens as a result of the stroke. 


In Ayurved, a disease is described as an imbalance of one of the doshas of the human body and the treatments consist of methods to restore this imbalance. The classic texts describe strokes very clearly with specific treatments. While no time limits are specified, it is believed that earlier the treatment, better the results.

The point of the whole treatment is to bring the brain’s motor and sensory function back online. Medication boosts oxygenation of the brain by improving the supply of antioxidants and blood, exterior therapies improve peripheral nervous systems, reduce muscles stiffness and maintain and improve muscle tone. 

Ayurveda treats paralysis in five phases
  1. Medication to prepare the person for snehana.
  2. Snehana. Using medicated oils internally and externally over a specific period of time. This will vary from person to person and even season to season.
  3. Swedana. Meaning to perspire or sweat through steam baths.
  4. Virechana. Meaning,  the purging of the body using medication or castor oil. This can be induced vomiting, enema or nasal irrigation.
  5. Medication to boost immunity and regain muscle strength.

 Stroke


Extensive physiotherapy also helps by Restoring neuromuscular function; Tone and strengthen muscle tissues; Recover lost bodily functions; and by enabling the patient to take care of daily activities, improve the quality of life

Role of Ayurveda in treating Supranuclear palsy

What is Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP)?

This is a relatively rare disease of the brain that affects control over walking, movement and balance, speech, mood, vision and swallowing and most importantly thinking. This disease directly affects the clusters of cells (supranuclear) of the brain, and as the name suggests, worsens over time (progressive) causing weakness (palsy). The inability to move and aim the eyes is one of the classic symptoms of this disease.


As its symptoms are similar to that of Parkinson's disease, it is very difficult to diagnose. It was in 1964 that it was described as a distinct disorder, different from Parkinson’s disease. The average of a patient is above 60, but it may occur earlier. Men are more affected than women.

Ayurveda’s role in treating PSP.

To make things absolutely clear, currently, there is no treatment for PSP, all we can do is manage the signs and symptoms. This disease does not respond to current medications.
Here is where Ayurveda has a better, much better role to play that is in the holistic management of the disease.

Ayurveda (Science of Life), has two main theoretical constructs:

The Panchabhoota Theory and the Tridosha Theory. The first says that the body is made of 5 elements of Earth, Water, Fire, Air and Ether; and the second says the body functions are governed by three biological units of Vatha, Pitha and Kapha, which themselves are part of Panchabhoota. 

Vatha is voluntary and involuntary body movements; Pitha is digestive and metabolic actions and Kapha the energy holding the body together. Any imbalance results in ill health.

For PSP, Ayurveda uses Panchakarma along with balance exercises to address the imbalance. Studies have shown very noticeable improvements in eye movements, ability to swallow and speak, reduced double vision and neck rigidity. Significant improvements to balance and body sway, reduced mental irritability and absence of tremors, have also been noted. 

So, Ayurveda may not cure PSP, but it definitely does bring a lot of improvements to the quality of life of the patients.
