Wellness Hour – Ayurvedic medicine

美国东部时间下午 5:00 | 美国中部时间下午 4:00 | 美国中部时间下午 3:00 | 美国东部时间下午 2:00

This month we will discuss Ayurvedic medicine, the ancient Indian system of integrative, holistic medicine. Treatments are personalized and include lifestyle, yogo, diet, and medicinal formulations, mostly plant-based.  We will hear from individuals with FSHD who have used Ayurvedic approaches, as well as from a trained practitioner.

Kulangara Sivadas (‘Siva’) is a retired electronics engineer (and FSHD patient) living in southern California for the past 25 years. He originally hails from the Southern Indian state of Kerala. During his career, he worked as an R&D engineer in aerospace, magnetic data storage, and surgical robotics. He holds over 12 issued patents and several journal/ conference papers in various technology fields. He believes that he was able to extend his work life by at least 6 years due to a chance encounter he had with an Ayurvedic practice system specifically targeting neuromuscular diseases. Currently under the care of Dr. Sreejith (see below), he’s able to confidently say that his rate of decline has been brought under control. Also he wishes he knew about this therapy 11 years ago when he was first diagnosed with FSHD! In this talk, Siva will focus on his experience with Ayurveda and challenges with regard to FSHD patients.

We’ll also be joined by Dr. Sreejith R Venu, B.A.M.S., who will be Zooming from India. He is an alumnus of Sri Sri College of Ayurvedic Science and Research Center, Banglore, India. He underwent a comprehensive training program under the guidance of Swami Nirmalandagiri Maharaj for a duration of 8 years (2010-2017). Throughout this extensive training period, Dr. Sreejith acquired knowledge and expertise in various facets of medicine and treatment methodologies for diverse disorders. Presently, he practices at Sreevalsam Ayurvedic Hospital and Research Center, Kerala, India, with a primary focus on muscular atrophy, muscular dystrophy, FSHD and other disorders. His patients have witnessed remarkable clinical outcomes under his compassionate care .
