What is Multiple Sclerosis?

Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease where the immune system attacks the protective sheath (myelin) covering nerve fibers, causing communication problems between the brain and the rest of the body. This can eventually cause the nerves themselves to deteriorate or become permanently damaged.

Why Choose Ayurveda for Multiple Sclerosis?

Ayurveda provides a holistic approach to managing multiple sclerosis by addressing the root cause and balancing the body’s doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). Ayurvedic treatments focus on improving neurological health, reducing symptoms, and enhancing the patient’s overall quality of life through natural remedies and lifestyle modifications.
