1. Nithya Kriya

Nithya Kriya is a series of healing yogic processes revealed by Paramahamsa Nithyananda (www.nithyananda.org/nithya-kriyas). Nithya Kriya is unique in that the knowledge and techniques are drawn from the most authentic sacred yogic scriptures of India, while the specific combinations are expressed from the personal experience of Paramahamsa Nithyananda. Himself an established yogi, Paramahamsa Nithyananda has trained under powerful yogis and mystics right from childhood, and has been the practitioner of mystical yogic sciences that have practically disappeared from modern yoga texts. Why Nithya Kriya? Today, the world is witnessing an outburst of yoga schools and teachers, both eastern and western, who offer all kinds of physical postures, new styles, aerobics, breathing exercises in all kinds of combinations... While you may some physical workout out of it, you may never understand the true reason and purpose of practicing specific postures and breathing techniques, let alone experience it is supposed to lead you to. Nithya Kriya aims to deliver and preserve the original yogic practices, born of millennia of research and development and the inestimable personal contribution of innumerable enlightened yogis who gave their lives to enrich the world with this science. According the teaching methods laid out by legendary yogis like Gorakhnatha and Matsyendranatha, the individual asanas and pranayama techniques are sacred and must not be tampered with, while the combinations of techniques required to produce the desired effect are to be received by the learner form his own personal guru (Hatha Yoga Pradipika). True to the Vedic culture, these fathers of modern yoga left the door wide open for continuous updating of this ancient science. Scriptural roots of Nithya Kriya Nithya Kriya is soundly anchored in the sacred yoga scriptures, including the legendary Patanjali Yoga Sutras as well as the three classic texts that form the base of yoga - Hatha Yoga Pradipika,Gheranda Samhita and Shiva Samhita. Patanjali Yoga Sutras is the foundational text of yoga, written by the father of yoga, the enlightened sage Patanjali. This esoteric yet highly practical text, based on Saankhya Yoga, is said to date back to the 2nd century BC, although it is believed to be far more ancient. Patanjali Yoga Sutras emphasize the value of yoga as a lifestyle, through ashtanga yoga (8-limbed yoga) consisting of yama & niyama(personal and social disciplines), asana (postures), pranayama (controlled breathing), prathyahara (withdrawal of the senses), dhaarana (one-pointed awareness), dhyaana (meditation) and Samadhi (oneness or non-dualistic consciousness). Hatha Yoga Pradipika is a 15th century Sanskrit hatha yoga text, written by Swami Swatmarama, a disciple of Swami Gorakhnatha. The book is dedicated to Adinatha or Lord Shiva, who is said to have revealed the secrets of hatha yoga to his divine consort Devi Parvati. Hatha Yoga Pradipika contains four major upadeshaas (teachings), which reveal the correct understanding and practice of asanas, pranayama chakras, bandhas, kriyas, shakti, nadis, mudras and kundalini. 4 Gheranda Samhita is a highly practical and effective yoga manual said to have been taught by the sage Gheranda to Chanda Kapali. Gheranda Sahmita advocates a sevenfold yoga,including shatkarma(cleansing processes), asana (postures), pranayama (controlled breathing), mudra (finger locks), pratyahara (mind control), dhyana (meditation) and samadhi (the fruit of all the above). Shiva Samhita is a complex text that spans the entire spectrum of human experience, from health to liberation. Starting with a treatise on spiritual liberation, this text goes on to reveal 84 beneficialasanas, pranayama, meditation and visualization techniques, mantras, subtle energy channels (nadis), kundalini and the importance of the guru on the path. The other texts that Nithya Kriya draws from includethe Kumbhaka Paddhati of Raghuvira, Trisikhibrahmanopanishad, Yogakundalayupanishad, Yogachudamanyupanishad and Yoga Taravali,JogaPradipika, Yogasana Mala Sachitra, among others. Evolution of Nithya Kriya Although human nature remains essentially the same across the ages, the human body and mind is hardly what it was when the foundational texts of yoga were written, some of them over twenty centuries ago. Seemingly extraneous factors like workplace stress, a hurried lifestyle and changing social realities are having a real and profound influence over even such basic processes as the way our cells function or our brain processes information. Therefore, any technique that has to work for today's individual has to be evolved for and tested on the kind of body-mind that it aims to benefit. The evolution of Nithya Kriya follows a threefold process: Every single technique evolved as part of Nithya Kriya is compiled and personally tested by Paramahamsa Nithyananda, who brings to the scriptural wisdom his own unique understanding of the complex equations of body, breath and mind in the modern individual. Once the technique has been perfected, it is tested on a select group of disciples over a period of one mandala (21 days), and feedback is received which is then incorporated in the kriya. Through the process of parallel testing, several kriyas are tested on different groups over the same period. For healing kriyas for particular ailments, testing is done on people who suffer from that ailment, as well as a control group. Once the kriya has been sufficiently tested, it is released to a group of 1000-2000 followers and yoga practitioners from diverse cultures and age groups around the world who undertake to voluntarily practice the kriya under the direct guidance of Paramahamsa Nithyananda, either in His physical presence, or through two-way video conferencing. Individuals suffering from a particular disease practice the kriya for a period of one mandala (21 days) and revert with feedback. The requisite changes are made and the modified version is further tested. For each ailment, both 'care' and 'cure' kriyas are designed. For instance, the NithyaKriya for Hypertension Care is a preventive kriya for healthy individuals, while the NithyaKriya for Hypertension Cure is aimed at benefiting individuals who already suffer from hypertension. In this way, each Nithya Kriya goes through several cycles of stringent testing before it takes its final form. Even so, in keeping with the Vedic practice of continuous learning and enrichment, feedback is invited from anyone who can contribute positively to the evolution of Nithya Kriya as a holistic solution for body, mind and being for the modern individual. Removing the root of disease Nithyananda states that this contribution has the potential to revolutionize health care. In addition, thekriya techniques have never before been assembled so specifically for particular disorders.Each kriya technique has complete, guided, step-by-step instructions, including photos and videos empowering any individual to find a pathway to health and well-being. The kriyas are designed to heal the body and break the root cause of the disease. For example, Nithyananda says there are three factors involved in the cause of diabetes: Eating with a lack of awareness. Eating food that does not support your health. How you eat your food - what kinds of thoughts you're having while eating. All three cause the food pattern of an individual, which in turn, is responsible for diabetes. With the practice of the kriya, not only will your diabetes be healed, but the pattern and root cause of diabetes will also be destroyed." said Nithyananda. The Power of Initiation (deeksha) While extolling the benefits of disciplined practice, yoga texts do not hesitate to declare that the results equivalent to 12 years of strenuous sadhana (spiritual disciplines) can be granted by the guru in a moment to a disciple who is open to it. While theoretically, the entire kriya may be assembled and taught by anybody with sufficient knowledge of the yoga scriptures, the benefits of practicing the same kriya in the presence of a highly evolved being are simply inestimable. This is especially so when participants are literally ‘opened’ to the technique by the highly revered process of deeksha or initiation by the Master. The highly scientific yet mystical experience of deeksha can be explained to some extent by the principle of resonance. Just as a bowl of water will begin to hum when struck with a metal rod at the right frequency, an energy adept can subtly force the practitioner’s energy into higher spiritual frequencies by the sheer pressure of his own positive vibration. At such moments, the body and mind lose their natural resistance and awaken to their own highest possibility of health and wellbeing. 8 Harnessing the Kundalini energy for self-healing A significant distinction of Nithya Kriya is the safe and scientific awakening of the Kundalini energy in the practioner. Kundalini is the tremendous potential energy that lies latent in each of us. Kundalini can be described as every individual's hotline to the infinite cosmic energy. Once awakened by appropriate yogic practices and the guidance and grace of the guru, Kundalini showers a host of blessings on the practitioner, including a big boost in energy levels, physical well-being, the falling away of negative mental patterns, true inner fulfillment and a deep connection to the universal Source. Miraculous healing of diabetes using NithyaKriya- people share experiences

1. "I have never seen something reduce my sugar level so rapidly. This is extraordinary!" says Ricardo Boreiki from Houston, Texas, USA. This 63 year-old man suffering from diabetes for 33 years experienced miraculous healing after using NithyaKriya. Ricardo Boreiki says that he had a blood sugar level between 300 - 400 and using 45 units of insulin daily, and now his sugar level is steady at 85 and uses only 5 units of insulin in the mornings since he started practicing NithyaKriya. You can watch his sharing of the miracle on the below video ( 4.30 mins. onwards) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBKGrH2IdJc&feature=plcp
2. ParimalaParamanathan from Toronto, Canada - "I had diabetes for last 16 years, it was very high for past 3 years - more than 3 times the normal value. I attended the Daibeteskriya one-week workshop at Toronto Nithyananda Vedic temple. I was amazed, my sugar levels have come down to normal and my doctor has reduced my medication to half.

Broadly, addiction is defined as the continued use of a mood altering addictive substance or behaviors despite adverse consequences associated with it. Some psychology professions mean 'addiction' to include abnormal psychological dependency on such things as gambling, video games, food, sex, pornography, computers, internet, work, exercise, watching TV self-injury and shopping. It is thought that these behavior activities may produce beta-endorphins in the brain, which makes the person feel "high." Some experts suggest that if a person continues to engage in the activity to achieve this feeling of well-being and euphoria, he/she may get into an addictive cycle. In so doing, he/she becomes physically addicted to his/her own brain chemicals, leading to a continuation of the behavior, even though it may have negative health or social consequences.

Do this 21 times END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 11-Nov-2011 CURE FOR ADDICTION Disease Description Historically, addiction has been defined as physical and/or psychological dependence on psychoactive substances (for example alcohol, tobacco, heroin, caffeine and other drugs) which cross the blood-brain barrier once ingested, temporarily altering the chemical milieu of the brain. Broadly, addiction is defined as the continued use of a mood altering addictive substance or behaviors despite adverse consequences associated with it. Some psychology professions mean 'addiction' to include abnormal psychological dependency on such things as gambling, video games, food, sex, pornography, computers, internet, work, exercise, watching TV self-injury and shopping. It is thought that these behavior activities may produce beta-endorphins in the brain, which makes the person feel "high." Some experts suggest that if a person continues to engage in the activity to achieve this feeling of well-being and euphoria, he/she may get into an addictive cycle. In so doing, he/she becomes physically addicted to his/her own brain chemicals, leading to a continuation of the behavior, even though it may have negative health or social consequences.

In biology, senescence is the state or process of aging. Cellular senescence is a phenomenon where isolated cells demonstrate a limited ability to divide in culture. The process of aging is characterized by the declining ability to respond to stress, increasing homeostatic imbalance and increased risk of disease. Some researchers (specifically biogerontologists) are treating aging as a disease. As genes that have an effect on aging are discovered, aging is increasingly being regarded in a similar fashion to other genetically influenced "conditions", potentially "treatable.

Do this 21 times End of Kriya KRIYA DATE 04-Dec-2011 CARE FOR ANGER Disease Description Anger is an emotion related to one's psychological interpretation of having been offended, wronged or denied and a tendency to undo that by retaliation. Anger is described as an emotion that involves a strong uncomfortable and emotional response to a perceived provocation. Anger may have physical correlates such as increased heart rate, blood pressure, and levels of adrenaline and noradrenaline. Some view anger as part of the fight or flight brain response to the perceived threat of harm. Anger becomes the predominant feeling behaviorally, cognitively, and physiologically when a person makes the conscious choice to take action to immediately stop the threatening behavior of another outside force. Modern psychologists point out that suppression of anger may have harmful effects. The suppressed anger may find another outlet, such as a physical symptom, or become more extreme. Physiological responses to anger include an increase in the heart rate, preparing the person to move, and increase of the blood flow to the hands, preparing them to strike. Perspiration increases (particularly when the anger is intense). STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

CURE FOR ANGER Disease Description Anger is an emotion related to one's psychological interpretation of having been offended, wronged or denied and a tendency to undo that by retaliation. Anger is described as an emotion that involves a strong uncomfortable and emotional response to a perceived provocation. Anger may have physical correlates such as increased heart rate, blood pressure, and levels of adrenaline and noradrenaline. Some view anger as part of the fight or flight brain response to the perceived threat of harm. Anger becomes the predominant feeling behaviorally, cognitively, and physiologically when a person makes the conscious choice to take action to immediately stop the threatening behavior of another outside force. Modern psychologists point out that suppression of anger may have harmful effects. The suppressed anger may find another outlet, such as a physical symptom, or become more extreme Physiological responses to anger include an increase in the heart rate, preparing the person to move, and increase of the blood flow to the hands, preparing them to strike. Perspiration increases (particularly when the anger is intense). STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

The term anxiety covers four aspects of experiences an individual may have: mental apprehension, physical tension, physical symptoms and dissociative anxiety. The emotions present in anxiety disorders range from simple nervousness to bouts of terror. Anxiety disorders can arise in response to life stresses such as financial worries or chronic physical illness to the actual potential danger but still are overwhelmed by the fear. Low levels of a neurotransmitter that reduces activity in the central nervous system, contribute to anxiety. Anxiety also raises blood pressure and heart rate and can cause nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, ulcers, diarrhea, tingling, weakness, and shortness of breath. Some other symptoms are frequent self-doubt and self-criticism, irritability, sleep problems and, in extreme cases, thoughts of not wanting to be alive. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Arthritis is a form of joint disorder that involves inflammation of one or more joints. There are over 100 different forms of arthritis. The most common form, osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease), is a result of trauma to the joint, infection of the joint, or age. Other arthritis forms are rheumatoid arthritis, gout, psoriatic arthritis, and related autoimmune diseases. Septic arthritis is caused by joint infection. The major complaint by individuals who have arthritis is joint pain. Pain is often a constant and may be localized to the joint affected. The pain from arthritis is due to inflammation that occurs around the joint, damage to the joint from disease, daily wear and tear of joint, muscle strains caused by forceful movements against stiff, painful joints and fatigue.

There are over 100 different forms of arthritis. The most common form, osteoarthritis (degenerative joint disease), is a result of trauma to the joint, infection of the joint, or age. Other arthritis forms are rheumatoid arthritis, gout, psoriatic arthritis, and related autoimmune diseases. Septic arthritis is caused by joint infection. The major complaint by individuals who have arthritis is joint pain. Pain is often a constant and may be localized to the joint affected. The pain from arthritis is due to inflammation that occurs around the joint, damage to the joint from disease, daily wear and tear of joint, muscle strains caused by forceful movements against stiff, painful joints and fatigue. Arthritic disorders like lupus and rheumatoid can also affect other organs in the body with a variety of symptoms like inability to use the hand or walk, feeling of tiredness, fever, weight loss, muscle aches and pains, tenderness.

Symptoms include wheezing, coughing, chest tightness, and shortness of breath. Asthma is clinically classified according to the frequency of symptoms, forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1), and peak expiratory flow rate. Asthma may also be classified as atopic (extrinsic) or non-atopic (intrinsic). It is thought to be caused by a combination of genetic and environmental factors. Treatment of acute symptoms is usually with an inhaled short-acting beta-2 agonist (such as salbutamol). Symptoms can be prevented by avoiding triggers, such as allergens and irritants, and by inhaling corticosteroids. Leukotriene antagonists are less effective than corticosteroids and thus less preferred. Its diagnosis is usually made based on the pattern of symptoms and/or response to therapy over time. The prevalence of asthma has increased significantly since the 1970s. As of 2010, 300 million people were affected worldwide. In 2009 asthma caused 250,000 deaths globally. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

While ADHD-PI is sometimes still called "attention deficit disorder" (ADD) by the general public, these older terms were formally changed in 1994 in the new Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, fourth edition (DSM-IV). ADHD-PI is similar to the other subtypes of ADHD in that it is characterized primarily by inattention, easy distractibility, disorganization, procrastination, and forgetfulness; where it differs is in lethargy - fatigue, and having fewer or no symptoms of hyperactivity or impulsiveness typical of the other ADHD subtypes. In some cases, children who enjoy learning may develop a sense of fear when faced with structured or planned work, especially long or group-based that requires extended focus, even if they thoroughly understand the topic. Children with ADHD-PI may be at greater risk of academic failures and early withdrawal from school. Teachers and parents may make incorrect assumptions about the behaviors and attitudes of a child with ADHD-PI, and may provide them with frequent and erroneous negative feedback (e.g. "you're irresponsible", "you're immature", "you're lazy", "you don't care/show any effort", "you just aren't trying",etc.). The inattentive children may realize on some level that they are somehow different internally from their peers. However, they are also likely to accept and internalize the continuous negative feedback, creating a negative self-image that becomes self-reinforcing. If these children progress into adulthood undiagnosed or untreated, their inattentiveness, ongoing frustrations, and poor self-image frequently create numerous and severe problems maintaining healthy relationships, succeeding in postsecondary schooling, or succeeding in the workplace. These problems can compound frustrations and low self-esteem, and will often lead to the development of secondary pathologies including anxiety disorders, sexual promiscuity, mood disorders, and substance abuse. It has been suggested that some of the symptoms of ADHD present in childhood appear to be less overt in adulthood. This is likely due to an adult's ability to make cognitive adjustments and develop coping skills minimizing the frequency of inattentive or hyperactive behaviors. However, the core problems of ADHD do not disappear with age. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

These signs all begin before a child is three years old. Autism affects information processing in the brain by altering how nerve cells and their synapses connect and organize; how this occurs is not well understood. Autism has a strong genetic basis. In rare cases, autism is strongly associated with agents that cause birth defects. Controversies surround other proposed environmental causes, such as heavy metals, pesticides or childhood vaccines. The number of people diagnosed with autism has increased dramatically since the 1980s, partly due to changes in diagnostic practice; the question of whether actual prevalence has increased is unresolved. Although there is no known cure, there have been reported cases of children who recovered. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 20-Nov-2011 CARE FOR AUTOIMMUNE DISORDERS Disease Description Immunity refers to the ability to defend the body against infection and disease and resist harmful microbes. The immune system has a non speciflc and specific component. Non-specific or innate immunity is the natural resistance with which a human is born and it provides non-specific physical, chemical and cellular barriers to a wide range of pathogens. For example, the epithetical cell layer which lines our skin and mucous membranes is often the first barrier that microbes encounter. Other examples are tear secretion, chemical secretions, fever, the inflammatory response which leads to microbes being "destroyed and eaten" by cells of the immune system. Specific or adaptive immunity responses involving components such as B and T cells are able to adapt itself to each pathogen and generate pathogen specific antibodies. Artificial adaptive immunity against a pathogen can be induced by vaccination. The immune system needs to maintain a delicate balance. Low immunity can leave one vulnerable to diseases, whereas an overactive immune system may lead to autoimmune disorders. Autoimmune diseases arise from an inappropriate immune response of the body against substances and tissues normally present in the body. In other words, the immune system mistakes some part of the body as a pathogen and attacks its own cells. This may be restricted to certain organs (e.g. in autoimmune thyroiditis) or involve a particular tissue in different places (e.g. Good pasture's disease which may affect the basement membrane in both the lung and the kidney). The treatment of autoimmune diseases is typically with immunosuppression—medication which decreases the immune response. A STEP TO BE FOLLOWED

The elevated moods are clinically referred to as mania. Individuals who experience manic episodes also commonly experience depressive episodes, or symptoms, or a mixed state in which features of both mania and depression are present at the same time. Severe manic episodes can sometimes lead to such psychotic symptoms as delusions and hallucinations. The current term bipolar disorder is of fairly recent origin and refers to the cycling between high and low episodes (poles). Not everyone's symptoms are the same, and there is no simple physiological test to confirm the disorder. What distinguishes bipolar disorder from unipolar depression is that the affected person experiences states of mania and depression. Often bipolar is inconsistent among patients because some people feel depressed more often than not and experience little mania whereas others experience predominantly manic symptoms.

Do this 21 times END OF KRIYA Kriya Date12-Dec-2011 CARE FOR CANCER Disease Description Cancer, known medically as a malignant neoplasm, is a broad group of various diseases, all involving unregulated cell growth. In cancer, cells divide and grow uncontrollably, forming malignant tumors, and invade nearby parts of the body. The cancer may also spread to more distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. Not all tumors are cancerous. Benign tumors do not grow uncontrollably, do not invade neighboring tissues, and do not spread throughout the body. Determining what causes cancer is complex. Many things are known to increase the risk of cancer, including tobacco use, certain infections, radiation, lack of physical activity, poor diet and obesity, and environmental pollutants. These can directly damage genes or combine with existing genetic faults within cells to cause the disease. Approximately five to ten percent of cancers are entirely hereditary. Cancer can be detected in a number of ways, including the presence of certain signs and symptoms, screening tests, or medical imaging. Once a possible cancer is detected it is diagnosed by microscopic examination of a tissue sample. Cancer is usually treated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. The chances of surviving the disease vary greatly by the type and location of the cancer and the extent of disease at the start of treatment. The risk of developing cancer generally increases with age. In 2007, cancer caused about 13% of all human deaths worldwide (7.9 million). Rates are rising as more people live to an old age and as mass lifestyle changes occur in the developing world. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

In cancer, cells divide and grow uncontrollably, forming malignant tumors, and invade nearby parts of the body. The cancer may also spread to more distant parts of the body through the lymphatic system or bloodstream. Not all tumors are cancerous. Benign tumors do not grow uncontrollably, do not invade neighboring tissues, and do not spread throughout the body. Determining what causes cancer is complex. Many things are known to increase the risk of cancer, including tobacco use, certain infections, radiation, lack of physical activity, poor diet and obesity, and environmental pollutants. These can directly damage genes or combine with existing genetic faults within cells to cause the disease. Approximately five to ten percent of cancers are entirely hereditary. Cancer can be detected in a number of ways, including the presence of certain signs and symptoms, screening tests, or medical imaging. Once a possible cancer is detected it is diagnosed by microscopic examination of a tissue sample. Cancer is usually treated with chemotherapy, radiation therapy and surgery. The chances of surviving the disease vary greatly by the type and location of the cancer and the extent of disease at the start of treatment. The risk of developing cancer generally increases with age. In 2007, cancer caused about 13% of all human deaths worldwide (7.9 million). Rates are rising as more people live to an old age and as mass lifestyle changes occur in the developing world. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

33. Sit in any of the Yogic sitting postures such as Padmasana, Sukhasana, Vajrasana, sitting in a chair or in stand-at-ease position.
34. A correct and easy way of doing this is to put the tip of the tongue against the soft palate. For this, the tongue has to be turned upside down, bringing the undersurface of the tongue up, and touching the tip of the tongue with the soft palate. Keep it there for as long as you can. If you feel uncomfortable or feel pain, unroll your tongue and relax for a few seconds and again resume. Initially, you can practice it for a few minutes every day, and slowly, can increase your practice.
35. A still easier, but less effective, way to do this is by putting the tongue up against the palate, with the tip of the tongue touching between back of your teeth and hard palate, and tongue pressing against the hard palate, and keeping it there for as long as you can do it comfortably.
36. Also, at the same time, keep the eyesight in the middle of both the eyebrows, at Ajna Chakra. It's more easily done with eyes closed. The correct and complete practice of Nabho Mudra is achieved only when your eyesight is between both the eyebrows and your tongue is in the contact with the palate. Both of these should be accomplished together at one time. Wherever the yogi may be may be, he should always, in everything he does, be sure to keep the tongue turned upwards and constantly hold the breath. This Nabho mudra, the destroyer of diseases for yogis. || अथ भस्त्रिकाकुम्भकः || भस्त्रेव लोहारकारां यथाक्रमेण संभ्रमेत्। तथा वायुं च नासाभ्यांमपरमपिर्मपरमेत्य चालयेच्छनः || एवंविम्शातिवारं च कृत्वा कुयांच कुम्भकं। तदन्ते चालयेद्वायूं पूर्वोक्तं च यथाविधि || त्रिवारं साधयेदेनं भस्त्रिकाकुम्भकं सुदीः। न च रोगो न च क्लेश आरोग्यं च दिने दिने || Bhastraiva lohakaaraanaam Yathaa-kramena sambhramet | Tathaa vaayum cha naasaabhyaam Uhaabhyaam Chaalayet shanaihi || 5.75 || Vimshati-vaaram Cha Krutvaa Kuryaachcha Kumbhakam | Tadante Chaalayet Vaayum Poorvoktam Cha Yathaaavidhi || 5.76 || Trivaaram SaadhayetEnam Bhastrikaa-Kumbhakam Sudheehi | Na Cha Rogo Na Cha Klesha Aarogyam Cha Dhine Dhine || 5.77 || TRANSLATION As the bellows of the ironsmith constantly dilate and contract, similarly let him slowly draw in the air by both the nostrils and expand the stomach; then exhale slowly.

Do this 21 times END OF THE KRIYA Kriya Date 26-Jan-2012 CARE FOR EPILEPSY Disease Description Epilepsy — "seizure" is a common and diverse set of chronic neurological disorders characterized by seizures. Some definitions of epilepsy require that seizures be recurrent and unprovoked, but others require only a single seizure combined with brain alterations which increase the chance of future seizures. Epileptic seizures result from abnormal, excessive or hypersynchronous neuronal activity in the brain. About 50 million people worldwide have epilepsy, and nearly 90% of epilepsy occurs in developing countries. Epilepsy becomes more common as people age. Onset of new cases occur most frequently in infants and the elderly. As a consequence of brain surgery, epileptic seizures may occur in recovering patients. Epilepsy is usually controlled, but not cured, with medication. However, over 30% of people with epilepsy do not have seizure control even with the best available medications. Surgery may be considered in difficult cases. Not all epilepsy syndromes are lifelong – some forms are confined to particular stages of childhood. Epilepsy should not be understood as a single disorder, but rather as syndromic with vastly divergent symptoms, all involving episodic abnormal electrical activity in the brain and numerous seizures.

Hyperhidrosis can either be generalized or localized to specific parts of the body. Hands, feet, armpits, and the groin area are among the most active regions of perspiration due to the relatively high concentration of sweat glands; however, any part of the body may be affected. Hyperhidrosis can also be classified depending by onset, congenital or acquired. Primary hyperhidrosis is found to start during adolescence or even before and seems to be inherited as an autosomal dominant genetic trait. Primary hyperhidrosis must be distinguished from secondary hyperhidrosis, which can start at any point in life. The latter form may be due to a disorder of the thyroid or pituitary gland, diabetes mellitus, tumors, gout, menopause, certain drugs, or mercury poisoning. Hyperhidrosis may be also divided into palmoplantar (symptomatic sweating of primarily the hands or feet), gustatory and generalized hyperhidrosis. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

In humans, it is usually used in aerobic or anaerobic exercise. The definition of 'long' varies according to the type of exertion - minutes for high intensity anaerobic exercise, hours or days for low intensity aerobic exercise. Training for endurance can have a negative impact on the ability to exert strength unless an individual also undertakes resistance training to counteract this effect. Endurance sports are a subset of sports in which the goal is prolonged athletic output over an extended distance or for an extended period of time. They are very aerobic by nature. Endurance training is essential for a variety of endurance sports. A notable example is distance running events (800 meters upwards to marathon and ultra-marathon) with the required degree of endurance training increasing with race distance. Two other popular examples are cycling (particularly road cycling) and competitive swimming. These three endurance sports could be combined as a triathlon, duathlon or biathlon. Other endurance sports for which extensive amounts of endurance training is required include rowing and cross country skIing. Athletes can also undergo endurance training when their sport may not necessarily be an endurance sport in the whole sense but may still demand some endurance. For instance aerobic endurance is somewhat necessary (to varying extents) in racket sports, football, rugby, martial arts and basketball. Endurance exercise tends to be popular with non-athletes for the purpose of increasing general fitness or burning more calories to increase weight loss potential. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 24-Jan-2012 CARE FOR FOOD ALLERGIES Disease Description Food allergy is an adverse immune response to a food protein. They are distinct from other adverse responses to food, such as food intolerance, pharmacological reactions, and toxin-mediated reactions. The protein in the food is the most common allergic component. These kinds of allergies occur when the body's immune system mistakenly identifies a protein as harmful. Some proteins or fragments of proteins are resistant to digestion and those that are not broken down in the digestive process are tagged by the Immunoglobulin E (IgE). These tags fool the immune system into thinking that the protein is harmful. The immune system, thinking the organism (the individual) is under attack, triggers an allergic reaction. These reactions can range from mild to severe. Allergic responses include dermatitis, gastrointestinal and respiratory distress, including such life-threatening anaphylactic responses as biphasic anaphylaxis and vasodilation; these require immediate emergency intervention. Individuals with protein allergies commonly avoid contact with the problematic protein. Some medications may prevent, minimize or treat protein allergy reactions. Treatment consists of either immunotherapy (desensitization) or avoidance, in which the allergic person avoids all forms of contact with the food to which they are allergic. The scope of problem, particularly for young people, is a significant public health issue. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Apart from congenital heart diseases, in which the person is born with the heart disease, three most common types of acquired heart disease are Coronary Artery Disease, if they become blocked, blood cannot flow through them normally. Blocked arteries in the heart are often caused by smoking, high cholesterol, high blood pressure, diabetes and inherited traits from parents. Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) – This is a condition that means that the heart is not pumping at normal levels. Bad Heart Rhythms – This is a problem with electrical activity in the heart. This can make the heart beat too fast or too slow. A person can have heart disease and not feel sick. Some people with heart disease have symptoms. Some symptoms of heart disease are pain in the chest--the heart muscle is not getting enough flow to keep it going, trouble breathing--blood may back up into the lungs, palpitations, swelling of feet or legs, feeling weak, Cyanosis (skin turning a blue color) means that too little oxygen is in the bloodstream to supply the cells in the body.

There are different kinds of hernia, each requiring a specific management or treatment. By far the most common hernias develop in the abdomen, when a weakness in the abdominal wall evolves into a localized hole, or "defect", through which adipose tissue, or abdominal organs covered with peritoneum, may protrude. Symptoms and signs vary depending on the type of hernia. In the case of reducible hernias, a bulge in the groin or in another abdominal area can often be seen and felt. Other symptoms include pain in the groin that may also include a heavy or dragging sensation, and in men, there is sometimes pain and swelling in the scrotum around the testicular area. Irreducible abdominal hernias or incarcerated hernias may be painful, but their most relevant symptom is that they cannot return to the abdominal cavity when pushed in. They may be chronic, although painless, and can lead to strangulation. Most of the time, hernias develop when pressure in the compartment of the residing organ is increased, and the boundary is weak or weakened. Weakening of containing membranes or muscles is usually congenital, and increases with age, but it may be on the basis of other illnesses, stretching of muscles during pregnancy, losing weight in obese people, etc., or because of scars from increased pressure on the intervertebral discs, as produced by heavy lifting or lifting with improper technique increases the risk of herniation. Furthermore, conditions that increase the pressure of the abdominal cavity, such as obesity, straining during a bowel movement or urination, chronic lung disease, etc. may also cause hernias or worsen the existing ones. Also, if muscles are weakened due to poor nutrition, smoking, and overexertion, hernias are more likely to occur. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Do this 21 times END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 22-Nov-2011 CARE FOR HOT FLASHES IN MENOPAUSE Disease Description Hot flashes (also known as hot flushes, or night sweats if they happen at night) are a symptom of the changing hormone levels that are considered to be characteristic of menopause. Hot flashes, a common symptom of menopause and pre-menopause, are typically experienced as a feeling of intense heat with sweating and rapid heartbeat, and may typically last from two to thirty minutes for each occurrence. The sensation of heat usually begins in the face or chest, although it may appear elsewhere such as the back of the neck, and it can spread throughout the whole body. Some women pass out if the effects are strong enough. In addition to being an internal sensation, the surface of the skin, especially on the face, becomes hot to the touch. This is the origin of the alternative term "hot flush," since the sensation of heat is often accompanied by visible reddening of the face. Excessive flushing can lead to rosacea. The hot-flash event may be repeated a few times each week or constantly throughout the day, with the frequency reducing over time.[citation needed] Hot flashes may begin to appear several years before menopause starts and last for years afterwards. Some women undergoing menopause never have hot flashes. Others have mild or infrequent flashes. The worst sufferers experience dozens of hot flashes each day. In addition, hot flashes are often more frequent and more intense during hot weather or in an overheated room, the surrounding heat apparently making the hot flashes themselves both more probable and more severe. Severe hot flashes can make it difficult to get a full night's sleep (often characterized as insomnia), which in turn can affect mood, impair concentration, and cause other physical problems. When hot flashes occur at night, they are called "night sweats." As estrogen is typically lowest at night, some women get night sweats without having any hot flashes during the daytime.

Do this for 11 minutes CARE FOR HYPERTENSION Disease Description Hypertension (HTN) or high blood pressure, is a chronic medical condition in which the blood pressure in the arteries is elevated. This requires the heart to work harder than normal to circulate blood through the blood vessels. High blood pressure is said to be present if it is persistently at or above 140/90 mmHg. Hypertension is diagnosed on the basis of a persistently high blood pressure. Hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction (heart attacks), heart failure, aneurysms of the arteries (e.g. aortic aneurysm), peripheral arterial disease and is a cause of chronic kidney disease. Hypertension is rarely accompanied by any symptoms, and its identification is usually through screening, or when seeking healthcare for an unrelated problem. A proportion of people with high blood pressure reports headaches (particularly at the back of the head and in the morning), as well as lightheadedness, vertigo, tinnitus (buzzing or hissing in the ears), altered vision or fainting episodes.

This requires the heart to work harder than normal to circulate blood through the blood vessels. High blood pressure is said to be present if it is persistently at or above 140/90 mmHg. Hypertension is diagnosed on the basis of a persistently high blood pressure. Hypertension is a major risk factor for stroke, myocardial infarction (heart attacks), heart failure, aneurysms of the arteries (e.g. aortic aneurysm), peripheral arterial disease and is a cause of chronic kidney disease. Hypertension is rarely accompanied by any symptoms, and its identification is usually through screening, or when seeking healthcare for an unrelated problem. A proportion of people with high blood pressure reports headaches (particularly at the back of the head and in the morning), as well as lightheadedness, vertigo, tinnitus (buzzing or hissing in the ears), altered vision or fainting episodes.

END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 02-Nov-2011 CARE FOR HYPOTHYROIDISM Disease Description Hypothyroidism is a condition in which the thyroid gland does not make enough thyroid hormone. Iodine deficiency is often cited as the most common cause of hypothyroidism worldwide but it can be caused by many other factors. It can result from a lack of a thyroid gland or from iodine-131 treatment or a deficiency in stimulating hormones from the hypothalamus or pituitary, and can also be associated with increased stress, which can be environmental stress as well as lesser-considered homeostatic stress such as fluctuating blood sugar levels and immune problems. Hypothyroidism can be associated with the early symptoms of increased sensitivity to cold, Constipation, Weight gain and water retention, Bradycardia (low heart rate - fewer than sixty beats per minute), fatigue, decreased sweating, muscle and joint pain, dry, itchy skin, thin, brittle fingernails, Depression, female infertility, any kind of problems with menstrual cycles, etc. Late symptoms include Goiter (swelling in the thyroid gland), Slow speech and a hoarse, breaking voice, dry puffy skin, especially on the face, thinning of the outer third of the eyebrows (sign of Hertoghe), abnormal menstrual cycles, low basal body temperature.

Do this 21 times END OF KRIYA Kriya Date 25-Dec-2011 CARE FOR INFECTION Disease Description Infection begins when an organism successfully colonizes by entering the body, growing and multiplying. Most humans are not easily infected. Those who are weak, sick, malnourished, have cancer or are diabetic have increased susceptibility to chronic or persistent infections. Individuals who have a suppressed immune system are particularly susceptible to opportunistic infections. Entrance to the host generally occurs through the mucosa in orifices like the oral cavity, nose, eyes, genitalia, anus, or open wounds. While a few organisms can grow at the initial site of entry, many migrate and cause systemic infection in different organs. Some pathogens grow within the host cells (intracellular) whereas others grow freely in bodily fluids. Infections are usually considered to be caused by microorganisms or micro-parasites like viruses, prions, bacteria, and viroids, though larger organisms like macro-parasites and fungi can also infect. The symptoms of an infection depend on the type of disease. Some signs of infection affect the whole body generally, such as fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, fevers, night sweats, chills, aches and pains. Others are specific to individual body parts, such as skin rashes, coughing, or a runny nose. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Most humans are not easily infected. Those who are weak, sick, malnourished, have cancer or are diabetic have increased susceptibility to chronic or persistent infections. Individuals who have a suppressed immune system are particularly susceptible to opportunistic infections. Entrance to the host generally occurs through the mucosa in orifices like the oral cavity, nose, eyes, genitalia, anus, or open wounds. While a few organisms can grow at the initial site of entry, many migrate and cause systemic infection in different organs. Some pathogens grow within the host cells (intracellular) whereas others grow freely in bodily fluids. Infections are usually considered to be caused by microorganisms or micro parasites like viruses, prions, bacteria, and viroids, though larger organisms like macro parasites and fungi can also infect. The symptoms of an infection depend on the type of disease. Some signs of infection affect the whole body generally, such as fatigue, loss of appetite, weight loss, fevers, night sweats, chills, aches and pains. Others are specific to individual body parts, such as skin rashes, coughing, or a runny nose. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Infertility may also refer to the state of a woman who is unable to carry a pregnancy to full term. There are many biological causes of infertility, some which may be bypassed with medical intervention. Some women are infertile because their ovaries do not mature and release eggs. Other factors that can affect a woman's chances of conceiving include being overweight or underweight, or her age as female fertility declines sharply after the age of 35. Sometimes it can be a combination of factors, and sometimes a clear cause is never established. Common causes of infertility of females include ovulation problems, tubal blockage, age-related factors, uterine problems, endometriosis. Male infertility refers to the inability of a male to achieve a pregnancy in a fertile female. In humans it accounts for 40-50% of infertility. The main cause of male infertility is low semen quality. Generally, worldwide it is estimated that one in seven couples have problems conceiving, with the incidence similar in most countries.

As a functional bowel disorder, IBS has no known organic cause. Diarrhea or constipation may predominate, or they may alternate (classified as IBS-D, IBS-C or IBS-A, respectively). Historically a diagnosis of exclusion, a diagnosis of IBS can now be made on the basis of symptoms alone, in the absence of alarm features such as age of onset greater than 50 years, weight loss, gross hematochezia, systemic signs of infection or colitis, or family history of inflammatory bowel disease. Onset of IBS is more likely to occur after an infection (post-infectious, IBS-PI), a stressful life event, or onset of maturity. Although there is no cure for IBS, there are treatments that attempt to relieve symptoms, including dietary adjustments, medication and psychological interventions. Patient education and a good doctor-patient relationship are also important. Several conditions may present as IBS including coeliac disease, fructose malabsorption, mild infections, parasitic infections like giardiasis, several inflammatory bowel diseases, bile acid malabsorption, functional chronic constipation, and chronic functional abdominal pain. In IBS, routine clinical tests yield no abnormalities, although the bowels may be more sensitive to certain stimuli, such as balloon insufflation testing. The exact cause of IBS is unknown. The most common theory is that IBS is a disorder of the interaction between the brain and the gastrointestinal tract, although there may also be abnormalities in the gut flora or the immune system. IBS has no effect on life expectancy. However, it is a source of chronic pain, fatigue, and other symptoms and contributes to work absenteeism. The high prevalence of IBS and significant effects on quality of life make IBS a disease with a high social cost. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

This can result from either of two conditions, hyperopia or presbyopia. Although the symptoms are similar (for example, difficulty seeing in low light, focusing on small print, blurred vision), the causes are different. In hyperopia, which can affect individuals at any age, the eye ball maybe too short or the shape of the lens may be altered. Hence the light which enters the eye cannot focus on the retina and the images focuses on a point behind the retina. Presbyopia usually affects individuals in old age and may be caused by the lens hardening with age, and thus losing its elasticity. Longsightedness is generally treated by wearing reading glasses.

However, memory loss is qualitatively different in normal aging from the kind of memory loss associated with a diagnosis of Alzheimer's (Budson & Price, 2005). Research has revealed that individuals' performance on memory tasks that rely on frontal regions declines with age. Older adults tend to exhibit deficits on tasks that involve knowing the temporal order in which they learned information; source memory tasks that require them to remember the specific circumstances or context in which they learned information; and prospective memory tasks that involve remembering to perform an act at a future time.

It is about three times more common in women than in men. The typical migraine headache is unilateral (affecting one half of the head) and pulsating in nature and lasting from two to 72 hours; symptoms include nausea, vomiting, photophobia (increased sensitivity to light) and phono phobia (increased sensitivity to sound); the symptoms are generally aggravated by routine activity. Approximately one-third of people who suffer from migraine headaches perceive an aura—transient visual, sensory, language, or motor disturbances signaling the migraine will soon occur. The severity of the pain, duration of the headache, and frequency of attacks is variable. The underlying cause of migraines is unknown.[21] There are, however, many biological events that have been clinically associated with migraine. Migraines may be induced by triggers, with common triggers quoted are stress, hunger, and fatigue. Steps to follow:

It may also refer to the state of being healed, or cured. A remission is a temporary end to the medical signs and symptoms of an incurable disease. The proportion of people with a disease that are cured by a given treatment, called the cure fraction or cure rate, is determined by comparing disease-free survival of treated people against a matched control group that never had the disease. Inherent in the idea of a cure is the permanent end to the specific instance of the disease. When a person has the common cold, and then recovers from it, the person is said to be cured, even though the person might someday catch another cold. Conversely, a person that has successfully managed a disease, such as diabetes mellitus, so that it produces no undesirable symptoms for the moment, but without actually permanently ending it, is not cured. Related concepts, whose meaning can differ, include response, remission and recovery. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

It may also refer to the state of being healed, or cured. A remission is a temporary end to the medical signs and symptoms of an incurable disease. The proportion of people with a disease that are cured by a given treatment, called the cure fraction or cure rate, is determined by comparing disease-free survival of treated people against a matched control group that never had the disease. Inherent in the idea of a cure is the permanent end to the specific instance of the disease. When a person has the common cold, and then recovers from it, the person is said to be cured, even though the person might someday catch another cold. Conversely, a person that has successfully managed a disease, such as diabetes mellitus, so that it produces no undesirable symptoms for the moment, but without actually permanently ending it, is not cured. Related concepts, whose meaning can differ, include response, remission and recovery. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

It most commonly manifests itself as auditory hallucinations, paranoid or bizarre delusions, or disorganized speech and thinking, and it is accompanied by significant social or occupational dysfunction. Genetics, early environment, neurobiology, and psychological and social processes appear to be important contributory factors; some recreational and prescription drugs appear to cause or worsen symptoms. The disorder is thought mainly to affect cognition, but it also usually contributes to chronic problems with behavior and emotion. People with schizophrenia are likely to have additional (comorbid) conditions, including major depression and anxiety disorders. Social withdrawal, sloppiness of dress and hygiene, and loss of motivation and judgment are all common in schizophrenia. In one uncommon subtype, the person may be largely mute, remain motionless in bizarre postures, or exhibit purposeless agitation, all signs of catatonia. Late adolescence and early adulthood are peak periods for the onset of schizophrenia, critical years in a young adult's social and vocational development. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

This causes the image that one sees when looking at a distant object to be out of focus but in focus when looking at a close object. Myopia presents with blurry distance vision, but generally gives good near vision. In high myopia, even near vision is affected, and patients cannot read without their glasses for distance.

This causes the image that one sees when looking at a distant object to be out of focus but in focus when looking at a close object. Myopia presents with blurry distance vision, but generally gives good near vision. In high myopia, even near vision is affected, and patients cannot read without their glasses for distance.

Most cases are due to a viral infection and resolve over the course of 10 days. Sinusitis (or rhinosinusitis) is defined as an inflammation of the mucous membrane that lines the paranasal sinuses and is classified chronologically into several categories:)
159. acute rhinosinusitis - a new infection that may last up to four weeks and can be subdivided symptomatically into severe and non-severe
160. recurrent acute rhinosinusitis - four or more separate episodes of acute sinusitis that occur within one year
161. subacute rhinosinusitis - an infection that lasts between four and 12 weeks, and represents a transition between acute and chronic infection
162. chronic rhinosinusitis - when the signs and symptoms last for more than 12 weeks
163. acute exacerbation of chronic rhinosinusitis - when the signs and symptoms of chronic rhinosinusitis exacerbate, but return to baseline after treatment. All these types of sinusitis have similar symptoms, and are thus often difficult to distinguish. Acute sinusitis is very common. Roughly ninety percent of adults have had sinusitis at some point in their life. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Mycoses are common, and a variety of environmental and physiological conditions can contribute to the development of fungal diseases. Inhalation of fungal spores or localized colonization of the skin may initiate persistent infections; therefore, mycoses often start in the lungs or on the skin. Causes: People are at risk of fungal infections when they are taking strong antibiotics for a long period of time because antibiotics kill not only damaging bacteria, but healthy bacteria as well. This alters the balance of microorganisms in the mouth, vagina, intestines and other places in the body, and results in an overgrowth of fungus. Individuals with weakened immune systems are also at risk of developing fungal infections. This is the case of people with HIV/AIDS, people under steroid treatments, and people taking chemotherapy. People with diabetes also tend to develop fungal infections. Very young and very old people, also, are groups at risk. STEPS TO BE FOLLOWED

Tinnitus is not a disease, but a symptom that can result from a wide range of underlying causes: abnormally loud sounds in the ear canal for even the briefest period (but usually with some duration), ear infections, foreign objects in the ear, nasal allergies that prevent (or induce) fluid drain, or wax build-up. Withdrawal from a benzodiazepine addiction may cause tinnitus as well. In-ear headphones, whose sound enters directly into the ear canal without any opportunity to be deflected or absorbed elsewhere, are a common cause of tinnitus when volume is set beyond moderate levels. Tinnitus can also be caused by natural hearing impairment (as is often seen in aging), as a side effect of some medications, and as a side effect of genetic (congenital) hearing loss. However, the most common cause is noise-induced hearing loss. As tinnitus is usually a subjective phenomenon, it is difficult to measure using objective tests, such as by comparison with noise of known frequency and intensity, as in an audiometric test. The condition is often rated clinically on a simple scale from "slight" to "catastrophic" according to the practical difficulties it imposes, such as interference with sleep, quiet activities, and normal daily activities.

Tinnitus is not a disease, but a symptom that can result from a wide range of underlying causes: abnormally loud sounds in the ear canal for even the briefest period (but usually with some duration), ear infections, foreign objects in the ear, nasal allergies that prevent (or induce) fluid drain, or wax build-up. Withdrawal from a benzodiazepine addiction may cause tinnitus as well. In-ear headphones, whose sound enters directly into the ear canal without any opportunity to be deflected or absorbed elsewhere, are a common cause of tinnitus when volume is set beyond moderate levels. Tinnitus can also be caused by natural hearing impairment (as is often seen in aging), as a side effect of some medications, and as a side effect of genetic (congenital) hearing loss. However, the most common cause is noise-induced hearing loss. As tinnitus is usually a subjective phenomenon, it is difficult to measure using objective tests, such as by comparison with noise of known frequency and intensity, as in an audiometric test. The condition is often rated clinically on a simple scale from "slight" to "catastrophic" according to the practical difficulties it imposes, such as interference with sleep, quiet activities, and normal daily activities.

It primarily causes abdominal pain, diarrhea (which may be bloody if inflammation is at its worst), vomiting (can be continuous), or weight loss, but may also cause complications outside the gastrointestinal tract such as skin rashes, arthritis, inflammation of the eye, tiredness, and lack of concentration. Crohn's disease is caused by interactions between environmental, immunological and bacterial factors in genetically susceptible individuals. This results in a chronic inflammatory disorder, in which the body's immune system attacks the gastrointestinal tract possibly directed at microbial antigens. Crohn's disease has traditionally been described as an autoimmune disease, but recent investigators have described it as a disease of immune deficiency. There is a genetic association with Crohn's disease, primarily with variations of the NOD2 gene and its protein, which senses bacterial cell walls. Siblings of affected individuals are at higher risk. Males and females are equally affected. Smokers are two times more likely to develop Crohn's disease than nonsmokers. Crohn's disease affects between 400,000 and 600,000 people in North America. Prevalence estimates for Northern Europe have ranged from 27–48 per 100,000. Crohn's disease tends to present initially in the teens and twenties, with another peak incidence in the fifties to seventies, although the disease can occur at any age.

CARE FOR VERTIGO

Disease Description

Vertigo is a type of dizziness, where there is a sensation of spinning while stationary. The symptoms are due to a dysfunction of the vestibular system in the inner ear. It is often associated with nausea and vomiting, unsteadiness, and excessive perspiration, as well as difficulties standing or walking. Blurred vision, difficulty in speaking, a lowered level of consciousness, and hearing loss may also occur. Central nervous system disorders may lead to permanent symptoms.

There are three types of vertigo: objective - subjects are moving around the patient; subjective - patient feels as if moving himself; pseudo vertigo - intensive sensation of rotation inside the patient's head.

The most common causes are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, concussion and vestibular migraine while less common causes include Ménière's disease and vestibular neuritis. Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages can also cause notorious symptoms of vertigo.

Vertigo is a frequent symptom in the general population. Its prevalence rises with age and is about two to three times higher in women than in men. It accounts for about 2-3 % of emergency department visits.

CURE FOR VERTIGO

Disease Description

Vertigo is a type of dizziness, where there is a sensation of spinning while stationary. The symptoms are due to a dysfunction of the vestibular system in the inner ear. It is often associated with nausea and vomiting, unsteadiness, and excessive perspiration, as well as difficulties standing or walking. Blurred vision, difficulty in speaking, a lowered level of consciousness, and hearing loss may also occur. Central nervous system disorders may lead to permanent symptoms.

There are three types of vertigo: objective - subjects are moving around the patient; subjective - patient feels as if moving himself; pseudo vertigo - intensive sensation of rotation inside the patient's head.

The most common causes are benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, concussion and vestibular migraine while less common causes include Ménière's disease and vestibular neuritis. Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages can also cause notorious symptoms of vertigo.

Vertigo is a frequent symptom in the general population. Its prevalence rises with age and is about two to three times higher in women than in men. It accounts for about 2-3 % of emergency department visits.
