Ayurvedic Approach to Manage Autism Spectrum Disorder
Dr. Laxmi, Dr. Meenakshi
Abstract: Autism spectrum disorder is a neuro - development ailment seen in the preschool age. It is a lifelong condition and requires long term and multiple treatment interventions. The primary goal of treatment for ASD is to maximize the child's functional independence and quality of life by minimizing core ASD features, facilitating development and learning, promoting socialization, reducing maladaptive behaviours, and educating and supporting families. Ayurvedic treatment strategies for children with ASD include Yuktivyapashraya Chikitsa (medication therapy), Panchakarma therapy, meditation (OM chanting), and Yoga therapy. Ayurvedic remedies are emerging as a promising therapeutic approach for such disorders. This disorder may be prevented by Medhya Dravyas and Medhya Rasayanas. Ayurvedic interventions can enhance attention and social interaction, helping children engage more effectively in other therapies.
