Learning Disabilities

Learning disability is a neurological condition that causes abnormalities in the brain resulting in difficulties in the intake and processing of information. The term was first used by Samuel Kirk in 1963. The processing of the information includes nature and speed of processing in the case of visual processing and auditory processing. It can be in the area of listening, speaking, reading, writing, reasoning, and mathematical calculations. They may have social problems as well and often feel neglected. It can be due to genetics, prenatal or perinatal causes like prolonged labor, alcohol, low birth weight, and oxygen deprivation. Learning disabilities can also be due to accidents post birth, malnutrition, heavy metal poisoning, or emotional disturbances. It can be identified through psychological or educational testing.

Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic’s holistic approach to learning disabilities deals with the receiving and acquisition of learning skills, planning, attention, time management, and improving social skills. The experts from Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic carefully analyze the doshik constitution of the body and the disease. In learning disability, Vata is the main culprit for the disorganized mechanisms. Prana Vayu controls and regulated the impulses in the brain. Sadhaka Pitta is the fire factor that helps in the association of things. Tarpaka Kapha is the one who gives proper nourishment to the tissue.

Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic’s treatment modalities focused on children’s learning disabilities are based on opening up the “Srotas” which are different channels in the body. According to Ayurveda, it is through these channels the different cells and tissues of the body get nutrition. It is also through these channels the medicinal effect passes. There can be blocks in these srotas which can hinder the functions of the normal functioning of the body. Opening up these channels is the primary step in learning disability management. Panchakarma is the only solution for that.

Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic has experts in Panchakarma and the management of learning disabilities. The first step Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic goes through is the diagnosis of the affected channels and the doshik constitution and the intensity in which the Doshas are affected. Once the primary diagnosis is done Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic carefully selects herbs according to the body constitution and the Panchakarma therapies to suit the age and constitution of the child. Before the commencement of the Panchakarma therapies, one should be prepared for the procedures by cleansing the whole body. The principle Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic follows behind this is that the channels can get blocked due to the irrational dietary habits and lifestyle of the child. So to correct the lifestyle and improve the digestive fire is the preliminary step followed by the elimination of the toxins in the learning disability management.

Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic has a wide variety of herbal drugs to choose from depending upon the potential and achievement of the child. These herbs are in the form of decoctions, Ghee, tablet, powders, creams, and oils. While administering these herbs the child has to follow a strict diet pattern under the guidance of the expert physician from Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic. Some the herbs like Brahmi, Aswagandha, and Mandookaparni decrease excitatory neurotransmitters in the brain and helps in the proper conduction of impulses, improvement of memory power, and learning capacities. These herbal medications are completely risk-free with proven benefits. The Panchakarma procedures will help in intellectual improvement, language processing, visual and auditory perception, and verbal and nonverbal learning.

Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic especially focuses on indriyas and indriyarthas because almost 4% of the child population between the age group   0-14 are affected with learning disabilities in UK. The rate of disability is more for boys than that for girls. In any of these cases, the channels of the Vata should be cleared because the occlusion of Vyana Vayu (sub type of Vata) to Prana Vayu results in the loss of sense and diminished memories. Later these can manifest as physical symptoms. Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic’s special packages of purgation following the Ghrita Paana and Abhyanga will help in collecting all the toxins from the channels and thereby eliminating them through purgation. The nasal drops used by Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic in this condition can do wonders for learning disabilities by stimulating the brain tissues. Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic’s nasal herbal medications are specially processed and they act by the way of passing the blood-brain barrier. Only ghee medications and alcohols can pass these barriers and rejuvenate the brain

Vasti prepared out of different herbal medications processed out of milk can do wonderful results. Once all the prescribed herbal medications and therapies are over Pranava Kerala Ayurveda Clinic advises following Rasayana therapy as a brain stimulator and rejuvenator.
