Epilepsy

Epilepsy, characterized by recurrent seizures due to abnormal brain activity, is approached in Ayurveda as Apasmara, caused by imbalances in the doshas—especially Vata and Pitta—and disturbed mental faculties. Ayurveda focuses on stabilizing the nervous system with herbal formulations like Brahmi, Ashwagandha, and Shankhpushpi, known for their neuroprotective effects. Panchakarma therapies help detoxify and balance bodily energies, while practices like yoga, meditation, and pranayama enhance mental calmness and neurological health. Along with tailored diets and lifestyle modifications, this comprehensive approach aims to reduce seizure occurrences, improve mental clarity, and support long-term well-being.
