A Case Study of Ayurvedic Management of Pakshaghata (Right Hemiplegia)
Vd. Sapna Dinesh Sodani | Vd. Sunil A. Bhaskare
Abstract: One side of the body is paralyzed with Pakshaghata, a neurological disorder also known as hemiplegia. It is brought on by damage to the brain cells that control motor performance. One of the primary causes of Pakshaghata, which happens when blood supply to a portion of the brain is restricted, is a cerebrovascular accident (CVA). In the current case study, a 43 - year - old male patient main complaints were weakness in the right side of his body and his inability to walk. He was determined to have had a hemorrhagic stroke and presented with right - sided hemiplegia as well as a persistent hemorrhage in the CT brain. Using natural herbs and therapies like Basti, an internal medicated enema therapy, ayurveda has helped treat neurological illnesses like Pakshaghata. The therapy tries to balance the Vata dosha, which regulates speech, movement, and sensory perception.
