Successful Yoga Prana Vidya (YPV) Healing Treatment of Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS): A Case Report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Introduction: Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) is a gastrointestinal disorder in which human gut becomes more sensitive and the muscles of the digestive system have abnormal contractions that affect bowel movements. Though IBS cannot be cured as per the main stream medical science, it can be managed through an integrative and holistic approach such as Yoga Prana Vidya System, to minimize the effect IBS has on our overall health and quality of life, as observed in the case presented in this paper.
Methods: This paper uses a full depth case study method going through patient’s medical history and records before and after healing, and also taking the feedback from the patient, and evaluating the present health status.
Results: Within 10 days of healing and following suggested Yoga Prana Vidya (YPV) guidelines , the patient is able to do all the daily home activities, cook food, go for a walk, travel, better breathing, and practicing forgiveness sadhana which has become an important part of the routine. Her sleep cycle, energy levels are better now. She no longer has episodes of vomiting. The patient is able to eat food well and also has gained some weight which she lost earlier.
Conclusions: As an integrative and holistic system of treatment and healing, Yoga Prana Vidya System offers tools and techniques easy to follow and practice, for curing illnesses, and improving overall health and immunity. There is scope for more research to conduct with targeted studies to gain more knowledge about this type of gastrointestinal disorders.
