Hello Sayeed, Could you share more about your lifestyle, diet, and stress levels? Also, do you experience any other symptoms like muscle stiffness, pain, or difficulty with other movements? Investigations such as imaging or blood tests are useful in assessing the severity and root cause of the spasms.

Cervical Dystonia, a challenging condition with its involuntary neck movements, can indeed be addressed through Ayurvedic practices, focusing on personalized approach based on your dosha balance and overall health. First, it’s important to understand that this condition might be linked to an aggravated Vata dosha, which generally affects nerves and muscles. While Ayurveda is complementary and should be pursued alongside your current treatment plans, some practices might help in managing your symptoms.

Ayurvedic herbs like Ashwagandha and Brahmi could be valuable due to their nerve-calming properties. Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) helps in reducing Vata disturbances and can promote overall resilience. Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) aids in nerve relaxation and maintaining mental calm. Consider starting with 1 gram of Ashwagandha powder and 500 mg of Brahmi, taken with a cup of warm milk in the evening. This combination can help in reducing stress and stabilizing the nervous system. However, ensure to consult with a local Ayurvedic practitioner before starting any herbal supplementation, as these might interact with your current medications.

Regular Abhyanga, the practice of self-massage with warm sesame oil, could help in mitigating muscular stiffness and spasms. Focus particularly on the neck and shoulders with gentle circular strokes, warming the oil slightly before application to enhance relaxation. This can be done daily, ideally before bath, in the morning.

Pranayama (breathing exercises) like Nadi Shodhana (alternate nostril breathing) too, could balance Vata energies and promote mental calmness. Practicing for about 10 minutes in the morning can be beneficial for reducing stress and enhancing breath control, which may indirectly aid in symptom management.

Diet is pivotal too, look into incorporating Vata-pacifying foods such as warm, moist, and mildly spiced meals, avoiding cold, dry, and raw foods that may aggravate your condition. Ensure proper digestion by eating at regular intervals and avoiding late evening meals. Trikatu (a blend of ginger, long pepper, and black pepper) can be advantageous for aiding digestion, thus strengthening your digestive fire (Agni).

While these steps could be supportive, severe or progressive symptoms necessitate collaboration with local healthcare professionals who can offer tailored and immediate interventions. It’s crucial to follow through with your neurological consultations in conjunction with these Ayurvedic practices. For medication availability in your region, consider interacting with a qualified Ayurvedic physician in Bangladesh as international shipping of such medicines can be complicated.

In urgent or worsening scenarios, prioritize seeing a medical professional. Always balance Ayurvedic interventions with modern medication for comprehensive care.
