Stroke Rehabilitation

When the blood supply to an area of the brain stops due to clogging or bursting of arteries, it can lead to Stroke or Brain Attack. The brain cells in the area die due to lack of oxygen and nutrients. When cells are dead, the body function controlled by that part of the brain will get affected and leads to various systemic problems. Rehabilitation will help stroke patients to relearn the skills which are lost when part of the brain is damaged or affected.

 The common symptoms of stroke include:

• Confusion
• Numbness
• Lack of muscular control in various parts of the body
• Vision problems
• Movement problems

The common complications of stroke include:

• One part of the body gets paralyzed
• One side of the face may get paralyzed
• Problems in bladder and bowel control
• Mental and emotional disturbances
• Speech difficulties

Through ayurvedic management of stroke, we aim to restore the stopped functions as much as possible through treatments, exercises, and diet, which can rejuvenate and trigger the brain cells and also enhance the overall health. As the holistic system of medicine, Ayurveda aims to treat the root cause of the problem and helps to recover from the illness completely.

Depending upon the stage of paralysis, a treatment plan is prepared by the senior physicians. If the stroke or paralysis happened recently, then mild ayurvedic therapies like Kaya, Seka, and Abhyanga are suggested. If the patient suffers from stroke for more than a year, other more extensive treatments are recommended. The treatment plan includes:

• Preparing the patient’s body for the medicated oil or ghee procedure.
• Internal and external oleation is performed as per the suggestion of the doctor.
• A steam bath process like swedana is then performed for detoxification.
• Herbal medications are prescribed for regaining the muscle strength and immunity of the body.
• Appropriate physiotherapy treatment is provided.

Know About Stroke and How to Manage It

Stroke is the medical condition in which a part of the brain loses its functionality. Stroke occurs mainly because of a disruption in the supply of blood to the brain. The blood supply would either be completely stopped due to thickening or hardening of the walls of the vessels or a vessel supplying the blood could rupture and thereby disrupting the blood flow to the brain. The former is known as atherosclerosis and the latter is hemorrhage.

Then there is another kind of stroke known as Transient Ischemic Attack, often known as mini-stroke. But, it could be more rightly termed as a warning stroke. This is believed to occur when there is a block to the flow of blood to the brain or when there is a clot formed in the path of the blood to the brain. The only difference between a TIA and a stroke is that the former is transient or temporary.
