Suggest Remedies For Symptoms Of Parkinson's Disease
About 5 years ago I was detected with the early onset of parkinsons by the consulted neurologist. I was under allopathy medication for 2 months. Since the medication didn’t suit me, I had to leave it and tried ayurveda for 2 years and that also didnt favour me. I tried other natural healing like acupuncture, acupressure etc. but no improvement. I also tried homeopathy for 8 months. Right now again am into ayurvedic treatment and feeling slight improvement. I consume mucuna puriens, aswagandharishtam and balarishtam.
I suffer from action tremors in my right hand and leg. Apart from tremor, I suffer from social anxiety. I tremor a lot during presentations makes me more embarassed. Due to my hand tremor, my right hand movement is slow and i find difficulty in writing. My elder sister in my family is affected by the same symptoms in her left hand and leg.
Need your expectation for me
Detailed Answer:
Hai,
I understand your concern.
With your current ayurvedic medication will help in management of your Parkinson associated symptoms.
As mucuna pruriens had scientifically proved to work against Parkinson disease.
In Ayurveda most of the disease condition will occur due to the imbalance in the tridosha (vaha,pitta,kapha). To realign those tridosha we follow panchakarma procedures, internal medication, lifestyle management and yoga along with diet recommendation depends on the constitution as well as body need.
As you are already on internal medication and I recommend you to take panchakarma procedures as well as yoga will definitely help to reduce tremor and associated symptoms.
Certain XXXXXXX will also help in managing your current condition. XXXXXXX helps in coordination.
After a clear physical assessment all the treatment protocol , yoga and XXXXXXX will be recommended to the patient.
