Department of Neurology
Comprehensive integrative care for epilepsy, stroke rehabilitation, Parkinson's, dementias, and the full spectrum of neurological conditions — combining Yoga therapy, Ayurveda, and conventional diagnostics.
Integrative Neurological Care
The Department of Neurology at Arogyadhama offers a comprehensive integrative approach to brain and nervous system disorders — combining conventional neurodiagnostics with the healing power of Yoga, Ayurveda, and Naturopathy.
Our neurologists treat the full spectrum of neurological conditions — from epilepsy and movement disorders to dementias, stroke, brain tumors, multiple sclerosis, headache, neuromuscular diseases, paralysis, nerve pain, sleep disorders, and speech disorders.
What makes Arogyadhama's approach unique is the recognition that the nervous system responds profoundly to integrative interventions. Research from S-VYASA demonstrates measurable changes in brain activity, autonomic nervous system function, and neuroplasticity through specific yoga techniques — changes that complement and enhance conventional neurological care.
The department also specialises in neurological rehabilitation — improving quality of life, functional independence, and cognitive performance for patients living with chronic neurological conditions.
"The nervous system is more plastic than medicine once believed. Yoga therapy, practised with precision and intention, rewires the brain's response to disease and stress — creating healing from within."
Our Specialisations
Healing the Nervous System
Every neurological patient receives a multi-modality protocol combining the best of conventional neurology with evidence-based integrative therapies.
Cyclic Meditation and MSRT reduce epileptic frequency. Om meditation activates vagal tone. Pranayama improves cerebral oxygenation. Tailored asana sequences restore motor function after stroke.
Medhya Rasayana (brain tonics) — Brahmi, Shankhpushpi, Ashwagandha — are prescribed for cognitive decline. Shirodhara (warm oil stream on forehead) is deeply calming for anxiety and insomnia.
Electroacupuncture at scalp and body points stimulates neuroplasticity. Proven effective for post-stroke rehabilitation, facial palsy, and neuropathic pain management.
Spinal cold packs reduce neuroinflammation. Therapeutic diet rich in Omega-3 and antioxidants supports myelin health. Hydrotherapy improves peripheral circulation and nerve function.
Neurological rehabilitation using task-specific training, balance exercises, and gait retraining. Coordination with yoga therapy creates synergistic recovery outcomes for stroke and Parkinson's.
Cognitive-behavioural therapy and group Maitri Milan sessions address the psychological burden of chronic neurological conditions — depression, anxiety, and adjustment disorders.
ICMR-Recognised Research
S-VYASA's neurology research includes studies on EEG changes in meditators, yoga's effect on seizure frequency, and pranayama's influence on cerebral blood flow — published in international peer-reviewed journals.

Neurologists, Yoga therapists, physiotherapists, Ayurvedic physicians, and psychologists collaborate in weekly case conferences to design each patient's individualised protocol.
