Some people are born paralyzed. Others develop paralysis due to an accident or a medical condition. The most common causes of paralysis include:
Some other causes include:
Stroke and transient ischemic attack are common and potentially life-threatening causes of paralysis. The degree and extent of neurological deficit depend upon the location and extension of damage to the brain cells or nervous system. In certain cases along with motor deficits, disturbance of speech (aphasia or dysarthria) and loss of higher functions are also observed.
While a few forms of paralysis let the patient continue to lead a normal life, there are a few that can cause severe complications. The dependence on crutches, wheelchairs, full-time nursing and a lot of other factors can increase significantly.
The most common complications are chest pains, high blood pressure, and depression. Sex life and fertility are affected differently in men and women.
The disease has been discussed in Ayurveda under Vata vyadhi disorder. The terms Paksaghata, Paksha Vadha and Ekanga Vata have been used to describe Paralysis in Ayurveda. Ayurveda has mentioned facial paralysis as a separate disease entity called “Ardita vata”. The treatment guidelines for these conditions have been widely enumerated in the classical texts of Ayurveda.
In spite of the various treatment modalities available in all medical streams available, Ayurveda has proved or stands to be one of the most effective treatment methodologies for the best possible recovery in Paralysis or stroke condition.
So, immediately after getting discharged from Acute medical care center or hospital, it is always highly recommendable to take Ayurveda treatment.
At Agasti ayurveda, we offer excellent Panchakarma therapies along with oral medications for treating Paralysis. The therapies like Abhyanga swedam, Nasyam, Karna pooranam, Snehapanam, Virechanam, Shiro vasti, Sarvanga dhara (Pizhichil), Pichu, Navarakizhi, Vasti etc. are done as per the necessity and condition for about 4 – 5 weeks.
Oral medicines will be continued for 3 - 6 months depending on the recovery. Apart from these Diet Life style modifications are essential throughout the treatment of Paralysis. Early intervention of Ayurveda treatment maximizes the recovery chances of Paralysis condition.
Internal medicines
Not all internal medicines of ayurveda for Pakshaghatha are suitable for patients. Based on the various dosha levels and existence of diseases such as hypertension or high serum cholesterol, medicines are changed to arrive at the perfect treatment plan. These medicines are rich in antioxidants and hence they are administered to enhance the availability of oxygen in brain and thereby revive the dormant cells. Medicines are usually made out of but not restricted to:
External treatments
For better results, ayurveda always employs plethora of external treatments along with internal medicines. The external treatments are devised such that they are beneficial for relieving the stiffness in muscular system and also for stimulating the internal organs to balance doshas.

என் மகனுக்கு கடந்த 2 வருடங்களாக செரிமான கோளாறு இருந்து வந்தது. பல கேஸ்டோ மருத்துவரை அனுகியும் முழுமையாக சரியாக வில்லை. அதிகபடியான அலோபதி மருந்து உட்கொண்டதால் தூக்கமின்மை பிரச்சனையையாளும் அவதிபட்ட எங்களுக்கு நண்பர் ஒருவர் உதவியுடன் அகஸ்தி ஆயுர்வேத மருத்துவரை சந்தித்து ஆலோசனை பெற்றோம். 1 மாதம் தொடர்ந்து ஆயுர்வேத மருந்துகள் எடுத்த நிலையில். நல்ல முன்னேற்றம் காணப்படுகிறது. எளிமையான முறையில் மருத்துவர் ஷாமபிரசாத் அவர்கள் அல்சர் வியாதியை பற்றி விளக்கினார். அத்துடன் உணவு பட்டியல் ஒன்று தயார் செய்து தந்துள்ளார். தற்போது என் மகன் எந்தவித இடையூறு இன்றி உணவு உண்டு வருகிறான். இதை உங்களிடம் பகிர்வதிள் மகிழ்ச்சி அடைகிறேன். நன்றி
My son had myelitis before 1 year and his right hand and leg got paralyzed then he got cured. But due to that he got some minor problem of walking with his right shoulder down. We consulted many allopathic doctors but everybody said that he won't be cured. I found this hospital in Google based on reviews and was really glad I came here for the treatment. Now he got so better. Doctor Shyama prasad and therapist Chippy were really friendly and was confident that this was just a minor problem for my son. The staff here is also really friendly and they interact with the patient well. I will surely recommend other people about this hospital for spinal problems. and special thanks to cleaning staff Sasi kala
