I had the privilege of being treated by Dr. Sudesh, an exceptionally knowledgeable and experienced Ayurvedic doctor. After a thorough consultation, she recommended simple yet effective Panchakarma therapies that provided me with rapid relief for the problems I had been struggling with. Dr. Sudesh’s approach is not only professional but also very compassionate. She takes the time to fully explain each step of the treatment process and is genuinely committed to ensuring the patient’s progress. Her follow-up care and attentiveness throughout the healing journey have been greatly appreciated. I highly recommend Dr. Sudesh to anyone seeking effective, holistic care.

Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is a potentially disabling disease of the brain and the spinal cord (central nervous system).

In MS, the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) that covers nerve fibers and causes communication problem between the brain and the body.

There is no cure for the disease though there are treatments available to help speed up the recovery from attacks, modify the course of the disease and manage symptoms.

According to Ayurveda it’s a Sannipata disease where all the Tridoshas are vitiated causing interruption between Rasa Vaha and Majja vaha strotas. Strotas are the channels of the network of the functional pathways in the body. Interruption in the strotas causes ill health. Many diseases are caused by these blockages, e.g., High or Low Blood pressure, breathing problems, abnormal heart rhythm, lethargy, mental confusion, pains, swellings, skin issues etc. Accumulated toxins also play an important role in weakening the immune system.

All forms of this condition reflect typical ama pathology. As ama accumulates in the body it migrates through the blood circulation (pitta & kapha in Rasa & Rakta dhatu / strotams) and is deposited in various locations of the body. Once ama is deposited in a dhatu it begins to attack the tissue or it provides an environment favorable for viral or bacterial growth. This sticky ama can also cause inflammation of the tissue that it is attached to – either with or without bacterial infection. This occurs because ama is attached to the nerve tissue and the immune response tries to remove it. This results in the immunity attacking the nerve tissue which has difficulty to separate from the ama that has attached to the myelin sheath.

Ayurveda starts with the diet and lifestyle modification where a disease has occurred.

 Dincharya (daily routine)

a. Wake up, go to toilet Drink warm water either before or after the toilet visit.

b. Apply a thin layer of sesame oil all over your body. Avoid putting it on your head and hair. Dress in comfortable clothes.  Have a hot shower – dress to stay warm.

c. Put 1 or 2 drops of sesame oil in each nostril. Allow the oil to move to the back of the throat then blow your nose and remove all fluids.

d. Have a hot drink (ginger tea, etc.)

e. Do 10 minutes of alternate nostril breathing (Pranayam, Anulom Vilom)

f. Diet should be nourishing but simple

g .Eat breakfast – warm food in small amounts if not hungry. Warm food in larger amounts if hungry.

h. Go to work or other daily activity.

i. Mid-day – Eat lunch, warm food. Avoid cold raw foods as the only lunch. This should be a main meal in your day. Take at least 30 to 60 minutes break at mid-day.

j. Continue with your work or other daily activity.

k. Have a hot drink in the late afternoon (4.00 p.m.). Avoid sweets in any form.

l. Eat the evening meal earlier rather than later. You need to have 3 hours of time to digest your dinner before going to sleep. Avoid heavy foods and dairy products. This will give more energy in the morning. Eating earlier in the evening and allowing more time to digest will help stabilize the energy levels and reduce fatigue. Eat enough that you are not hungry later but not too much that you feel heavy.

m. Eat lighter than at mid-day. NO desert or snacks after eating. If there is a craving for sweets, sit for 10 minutes and repeat the breathing exercise.

0. Be in bed by 10.00 p.m.

Dietary considerations

The basic starting point is to increase immunity & ability to digest and assimilate the food.

Regular meal timings are very important. Discipline in daily routine helps which means” Meal and Sleep” timings to be established and followed. Early to bed and early to rise is the best for Sleep discipline.

AVOID:

 Animal products and stimulants (coffee, alcohol), aerated drinks.

Acidic Food like Fatty & fried food and high protein diet. Fermented foods inclusive of bakery.

High sodium foods like sea foods, pickles etc. Processed foods, Stale food  

 All sweet carbonated beverages

 Smoking cigarettes. All forms of alcohol.

 Eating between meals, sweets and chocolate.

TAKE:

 Use ginger tea plus digestive spices to increase Agni (digestive capacity).

My name is James Maina.

I came to the Ayurveda Clinic having a number of issues. Mostly draining fatigue lack of focus… Foggy brain… Insomnia. Aching joints and a host of other things. 

I had read up a bit about Ayurveda and I was looking to try a more holistic approach to getting better. Natural healing is what I sought. The concept of Ayurveda of body energy balance is eye opening to say the least. 

The initial appointment was very helpful and after filling in the requisite form (which asks very interesting questions) we started the Therapy. 

The doctor is very experienced and perceptive and encouraging. Her approach to the treatment is holistic. She takes the time to listen with no hurry. The initial Therapy took 17 days and at the end of it a new me emerged. 

 In a very subtle yet definitive way Ayurveda simply works!! . I am a convert. 

1 month later I am a totally different person. Higher energy levels. Sharp focus. Concentration issues are solved. Insomnia is banished to a distant memory. Joints are getting back to normal.

One has to make certain adjustments to lifestyle choices but these are totally worth it. The proof of the pudding is in the eating and I would definitely encourage everyone who needs a holistic natural therapy to confidently try Ayurveda. 

Dear Dr Walia, Glad I could share my experience with others and encourage them to walk this new path.

Keep up the good work.

Regards

James Maina
