Nervous system disorders are very severe and possess a great threat to the person’s overall well-being and quality of life. Ayurveda has explained them under the term Vatavyadhis.Vatavyadhis are a group of disorders that arises due to improper functioning of Vata (one of the three doshas of the body) and lead to the symptoms described similar to the nervous system disorders. In this paper, an attempt is made to compile the information available regarding three Vatavyadhis- Apsmar (Epilepsy), Pakshaghata (Hemiplegia), and Kampavata (Parkinson’s).

Keywords: Ayurveda, nervous system disorders, vatavyadhi, manovahasrotas, apasmar, epilepsy, pakshaghata, hemiplegia, kampavata, parkinson’s, ayurvedic management.
