WHAT IS AYURVEDA APPROACH TOWARDS TOURETTE SYNDROME?
All neurological disorders including Tourette syndrome cause due to vitiation or imbalance of doshas mainly vata that too pran, udan and vyan. Again we would like to say that chronic upset of apana vayu which locates in lower region around pelvis, bowel and rectum looks after normal functioning of these organs. When it is out of control or imbalanced, its does not perform its normal functions and causes upset of prana vayu and again leads to weak agni (Digestive fire) and majja dhatu (nervous tissue). Weak agni or digestive fire leads to accumulation of toxic matter or called ama in Ayurveda. Ama is the root cause for all the diseases to happen. This ama along with vata causes obstruction of channels of nerves and produce neurological disorders. Prana vayu gets more affected with some other factors like stress, anxiety, negative thoughts etc. and presents with symptoms like abnormal behavior and many other.
