Case History Report

Patient Information:

  • Age: 13 years

  • Gender: Male

  • Condition: Ataxic Cerebral Palsy (ACP)

  • ​

Presenting Complaints:

A 13-year-old male patient diagnosed with Ataxic Cerebral Palsy (ACP) was brought in with severe motor impairments. The primary concerns included:

  • Severe pain affecting daily function.

  • Complete inability to stand or walk.

  • Significant motor dysfunction and postural instability, despite ongoing treatments from leading specialists.

 

Medical History and Previous Management:

The patient had received treatment from multiple renowned specialists, but experienced minimal improvement. Given that Ataxic Cerebral Palsy is a rare developmental disorder with no definitive cure in conventional medicine, caregivers sought an effective treatment that could improve his functional abilities and overall quality of life.

​

Response to Ayurvedic Treatment at Indian Ayurvedic Hospital, Coimbatore:

  • Week 1: Pain significantly reduced, and the patient began exhibiting early signs of movement, akin to that of a 10-month-old infant.

  • Day 10: The patient was able to stand without external support for the first time.

  • Day 15: He progressed to walking with minimal support.

  • Day 21: The patient attained a balanced posture, demonstrating remarkable improvement in postural stability and independent mobility.

 

Discussion:

Ataxic Cerebral Palsy is characterized by impaired coordination, balance issues, and motor dysfunction, with no established cure in conventional medicine. Despite prior medical interventions showing limited efficacy, this case demonstrated significant improvement in mobility, postural control, and pain reduction within a short period. The rapid and substantial progress observed suggests that Ayurvedic treatment provides a viable and effective therapeutic approach for managing neurodevelopmental disorders and restoring neuromuscular function.

​

Conclusion:

The patient, previously unable to stand or move, achieved substantial functional recovery within 21 days. This case highlights the effectiveness of Ayurvedic treatment in significantly improving motor function, posture, and overall mobility in patients with Ataxic Cerebral Palsy, offering a definitive treatment option where conventional medicine has shown limited success.
