“I feel very different.  This result makes me believe there is a cure out there, where I was starting to believe that there is nobody out there to help me. Before Ayurveda Pinda Sveda Treatment, I went to 3 physio-therapists, received 20-30 treatments, but this didn’t make any difference.

Case Study: Neck Pain

Debilitating neck pain due to old whiplash injury

The Problem:

My client suffered debilitating pain due to an old whiplash injury.  This was caused by a car accident.  His pain was aggravated by occupational postural problems resulting from his work as an electrician and working overhead. He was unable to function normally.

With neck pain, back-pain, lower-back pain, shoulder pain and headaches at night his ability to sleep was impaired. Being in constant pain, unable to rest and run his own business, his stress levels rose through the roof and his quality of life took a nose-dive for the worst. These issues had a negative effect on his business and his livelihood too.

Prior to his first Ayurveda treatment, he had tried 3 different physio-therapists, totalling 20-30 treatments, and reported that he noticed no difference at all, with his back in the same condition.

He had given up hope and felt lost, thinking that he would be having to live the rest of his life with these problems.  His biggest worry was the worry that his situation could worsen with age. He had a family who depended on him being the main earner in the family, so ultimately his health would determine the quality of life for them too.

The approach:

The client was given five consecutive localised abhyanga and pinda sveda treatments for the back and neck. Ayurvedic pinda sveda with medicated oils is a localised oil application with subsequent steam treatment. Additionally, two more treatments were given each week following this course of treatment, totalling seven ayurvedic pinda sveda treatments. He has also participated in Kundalini Yoga during his treatment process.

The result:

Pain has been significantly reduced, mobility has significantly increased and  client has  a renewed spirit and awareness of looking after his health.  He feels very different, “completely improved” with increased mobility in his neck. He is now able to turn his head both sides. He can return to work and feels stress has fallen off him. He is sleeping through the night and not walking up in pain. He is finally getting the rest he needed.

What the client said:

I feel very different.  This result makes me belief there is a cure out there, where I was starting to believe that there is nobody out there to help me.
