Poliomyelitis
Poliomyelitis is an acute viral infection affecting various parts of the central nervous system and generally affects children under the age of five. Symptoms may first appear as gastro-intestinal and respiratory disturbances with fever and become more aggravated between the second and fifth day with paralysis of the lower limbs.
Ayurvedic treatment is concerned with cleansing body channels, restoring proper digestion and nourishing body tissues and pacifying imbalanced body energies. This is achieved through prescription of cleansing herbal formulas and adjustments to diet and lifestyle. Nourishing herbs are also administered to strengthen the nervous system.
