Hemiplegia is characterised by increasing loss of function or weakening in one or both legs. Whether caused by ischaemia or haemorrhage, injuries to the brain's motor centres can lead to loss of function, trouble speaking, and poor balance. In the world, there are nine cases of hemiplegia for every 1000 persons. This illness's clinical manifestations are similar to those of Ayurvedic Pakshaghata. According to Acharya Charaka, Pakshaghata is a Vatavyadhi, which means that vitiated Vata Dosha contributes to its pathophysiology. Since Pakshaghata is Nanatatmaja Vaat Vyadhi, it is recommended to combine Panchakarma treatments with oral ayurvedic drugs. Sweden and ayurveda massage can help hemiplegic individuals stand up more quickly and with less assistance.
