Hemiplegia is the condition of paralysis of either the left or right side of the body with loss of function. It is also associated with poor balance, speech deficit and loss of function which result from any injury to motor centres of the brain either due to ischemia or haemorrhage. The prevalence rate of hemiplegia is 9 cases per 1000 in global population. In Ayurveda this condition can be compared with Pakshaghaat due to much resemblance in their clinical symptom. A female patient aged 55 years diagnosed case of left side hemiplegia took the treatment for 15 days of contemporary science. With no previous improvement she was treated at Department of Panchakarma at Government Akhandanand Ayurved Hospital. As per Ayurvedic classics Acharyas have described the involvement of vitiated Vata Dosha in pathogensis of Pakshaghaat. Snehna , Swedena , Mridu Virechana, Basti, Nasya etc. are considered the best way to treat a patient of hemiplegia. The above said patient was given Panchakarma treatment along with internal Ayurvedic medicine. She got very significant improvement in all the subjective criteria helping to increase faith of the patient in Ayurved Shastra.
