What Is Parkinson's Disease and How Can Ayurveda Help in Managing Its Symptoms? - #15001
A few months ago, my father was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease, and I’ve been looking into ways to manage his symptoms naturally. The doctors have prescribed medication to help with the tremors and muscle rigidity, but I’ve heard that these medications may have side effects over time. I’m curious if Ayurveda can offer any natural remedies to help manage Parkinson’s disease and improve my father’s quality of life. I’ve read that Parkinson’s disease affects the nervous system and leads to motor symptoms like tremors, stiffness, and slow movement. Can Ayurveda help in improving brain function, reducing tremors, and easing the muscle rigidity associated with Parkinson’s disease? I’ve heard about herbs like Brahmi and Ashwagandha that are good for brain health and reducing stress—could they help in my father’s case? Additionally, I’m curious about Ayurvedic dietary changes that can support neurological health. Are there any specific foods or herbs in Ayurveda that can help nourish the brain, improve circulation, and support the nervous system? Has anyone here cared for a loved one with Parkinson’s disease and found relief through Ayurvedic remedies? What herbs, treatments, or lifestyle changes helped improve the symptoms and enhance overall well-being?
