Abstract

Hemiplegia is a condition with gradual weakness or loss of functions on either half of the body. The injury to the motor centers of the brain either due to ischemia or hemorrhage, can cause poor balance, speech deficits and loss of function. The prevalence rate of hemiplegia is 9 cases per 1000 in global population.^[1] In Ayurveda, this condition can be compared to Pakshaghata due to similarity in clinical signs and symptoms being. According to Acharya Charaka Pakshaghata is a Vatavyadhi, where vitiated Vata Dosha is involved in its pathogenesis. Since Pakshaghata is Nanatatmaja Vaat Vyadhi hence use of oral ayurvedic drugs along with Panchakarma therapeutics is recommended.
