From an Ayurvedic perspective such conditions are considered to involve imbalance of vata and kapha affecting the channels of the head and nervous system Nasal therapy known as nasya is a classical treatment used for disorders of the head sinuses and sensory organs but in a condition like cavernous sinus meningioma it should only be done under the supervision of a qualified Ayurvedic physician The type of oil medicine and method of administration must be selected according to your constitution digestion strength and present symptoms Self use of nasal oils or medicines without proper clinical evaluation is not advisable especially when there is a structural condition involving the brain and surrounding structures Diet and lifestyle play an important role in supporting nervous system balance and overall tissue nourishment If the current diet is very restrictive or unbalanced it is important to gradually move towards a more nourishing and easily digestible pattern of eating Warm freshly prepared meals simple grains cooked vegetables moderate healthy fats such as ghee soaked nuts and adequate hydration can support strength while avoiding highly processed foods excessive fasting irregular meal timings and very cold foods Maintaining proper sleep regular routine moderate physical activity and stress management can also support overall wellbeing It is important to continue regular follow up with your neurologist or treating doctor for monitoring the meningioma and vision related symptoms while Ayurvedic care can be considered as a supportive approach under proper medical guidance
