Ayurvedic Treatment for  Spinal Cord Injury

Similar to any other acute injury, a spinal cord injury results in inflammation of the surrounding tissues and nerve cells. Therefore, the main goal is to lessen inflammation by administering drugs and anti-inflammatory treatments. Many drying therapies, such as Dhara and Ruksha Kizhi, are helpful in this regard. Only oil therapy are used when the irritation has decreased. Oil therapies are mostly used to strengthen the injured tissues, joints, and muscles once the inflammation has fully subsided. In addition, inside drugs that speed up the healing process and promote cell regeneration are administered.
