Doctors’ responses
Thank you, Rashmi for reaching out and sharing what you have been going through, feeling lightheaded dizzy having episodes of vertigo And inconsistent headaches for a year can be physically draining, and mentally frustrating I ear ear, Kanchan, especially after trying different treatments and not getting lasting relief
Based upon what you have mentioned this does seem to be linked to a deeper imbalance involving both the nervous system and possibly the blood circulation channels in the head. According to Ayurvedic point of view, symptoms like this usually comes from irregular movement of energy in the body. Poor nourishment in the brain channels and accumulation of toxins, not disturbed equilibrium in the bodies, internal rhythm If this has been going on for over a year, it usually means the root issue has gone deeper than surface level correction and may not respond easily to single herbs or routine medicines.
In such long-standing cases, Panchkarma, when done properly and with the right preparation can play a very important role. Panchkarma is not just detox. It is a reset for the entire body mind system, especially in chronic neurological complaints like yours where there may be subtle nerve irritation, impaired circulation to the brain or blocked internal flow. Panchkarma offers a step-by-step clearing, rebalancing and rebuilding approach. It helps to flush out deep-seated toxins, recalibrate the nervous system, and bring nourishment back to the tissues that have been weakened over time.
There are certain therapy in Panchkarma like shirodhara nasya karma and specific basti the tour is especially helpful for conditions which you are mentioned
The key is not all Panchkarma is the same, and it needs to be decided, according to your Prakruti strength and current condition
Since you have already tried medicated GHEE and other internal medicines, it suggest your body may now need a deeper clear and support from outside Inn… So, S Panchkarma does offer a potential part toward relief and even full recovery, but it has to be done in the right way with proper preparation. Specific therapist chosen for your symptoms and slow nourishing recovery after it and most importantly by someone who takes time to understand your case in depth and not treat you as just another protocol
Please do not lose if your body has managed to keep you going despite this for a year. It also has the power to reverse and deal when given the right support.

3. Kachooradi choornam as talam after bath.
Lightheadedness, vertigo, and different types of headaches can indeed be quite distressing and are often a sign that there is an imbalance in the body that needs addressing. In Ayurveda, these symptoms can sometimes arise due to imbalances in the Vata dosha, which governs movement and neurological activity. Your thought about poor blood circulation may also align with Vata disruptions.
Panchakarma, a comprehensive detoxification and rejuvenation process in Ayurveda, can certainly be beneficial in helping to rebalance the doshas. However, whether it will completely “cure” your symptoms in part depends on the underlying cause and how your body responds to treatment.
In cases where modern medicine and other Ayurvedic treatments like medicated ghee haven’t provided relief, Panchakarma may provide a deeper level of cleansing and healing. The experience is highly individual and depends on factors such as your unique dosha constitution and balance (prakriti and vikriti), age, lifestyle, diet, and stress levels.
Panchakarma includes procedures such as Vamana (therapeutic vomiting), Virechana (purgation), Nasya (nasal administration of medication), Basti (medicated enemas), and Raktamokshana (bloodletting), each addressing different kinds of imbalances. For your symptoms, therapies like Nasya may be particularly useful as they directly influence the head and nervous system.
However, it’s crucial to consult with a skilled Ayurvedic practitioner, as panchakarma should be tailor-made to suit your specific needs and health status. They can assess the right combination of therapies after thoroughly evaluating your condition. Also, ensure you do it in a reputable place with well-trained professionals, as proper execution is key for effectiveness and safety.
While Ayurveda deeply complements modern treatments, it’s important to ensure that these practices don’t delay essential diagnostic evaluations or immediate care needed for any possible underlying neurological conditions. Therefore, please follow up with healthcare professionals if symptoms persist or worsen.
