Abstract:
Background: Nephrotic syndrome (NS) is not a disease but needs to be treated. This case study discusses the successful treatment of Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) using techniques of Yoga Prana Vidya (YPV) as complementary medicine. This paper further explores the patient traits of self-management and control needed to sustain the improvements through changes in habits and life style.
Materials and Methods: Case study method is used with collection of data of a 22-year-old female patient diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome, monitoring and evaluation of their health conditions based on lab reports, changes in medicinal dosages and overall wellbeing before and after Yoga Prana Vidya system intervention.
Results: Within two months of YPV intervention, the nephrotic syndrome was brought in control, as seen in the lab test reports that showed absence of Albumin in urine, elimination of bacteria and increase of haemoglobin level, and this enabled reduction in dosage of medication. Besides controlling nephrotic syndrome, the YPV intervention enabled positive changes in overall health.
Conclusions: It follows from this case study that YPV can be used as an effective healing tool for complementary treatment of Nephrotic Syndrome and overall holistic health of the person. YPV produces best results, when integrated approaches such as physical and breathing exercises and meditation techniques are followed in practice with self-management. There is ample scope to conduct further research on the application of Yoga Prana Vidya as a cost-effective, safe and complementary/alternative medicine for treatment of nephrotic syndrome and various other medical conditions.
