Frequently Asked Questions
How does Ayurveda help post-stroke paralysis?
Pinda Sweda (herbal bolus massage) prevents muscle atrophy and stimulates nerve endings. Nasya delivers neuro-active oils directly to brain channels. Basti corrects the root Vata imbalance causing paralysis.
When should Ayurvedic rehab start after a stroke?
Ideally within 3–6 months of the stroke, once the patient is medically stable. Earlier intervention produces significantly better outcomes.
Can facial paralysis be treated with Ayurveda?
Yes. Nasya (nasal administration of medicated oils) and Abhyanga targeted to facial muscles are classical treatments for Ardita (facial paralysis) with excellent documented outcomes.
