According to Ayurveda, most of the diseases of the vata system are essentially the conditions of degenerative diseases of the nervous system. The syndrome of Parkinsonism is commonly compared with Kampa vata (kampa literally means tremors). The syndrome was comprehensively described by James Parkinson in 1817 (An Essay on the Shaking Palsy), but the review of much early literature would show that syndrome strikingly similar to Parkinsonism were already known and were categorized among the vata diseases in Ayurveda.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a heterogeneous and genetically complex disorder of largely unknown etiology. It is the second most common neurodegenerative disease in the general population. Approximately four million people worldwide are estimated to be living with Parkinson's disease. Incidence of Parkinson's increases with age, but an estimated four percent of people with PD are diagnosed before the age of 50.

The primary symptoms are the results of decreased stimulation of the motor cortex by the basal ganglia, normally caused by the insufficient formation and action of dopamine, which is produced in the dopaminergic neurons of the brain (specifically the substantia nigra). Four motor symptoms are considered cardinal in PD: tremor, rigidity, bradykinesia and postural instability. Other symptoms may include Gait and posture disturbances such as decreased arm swing, a forward-flexed posture and the use of small steps when walking, speech and swallowing disturbances, mask-like face expression or a small handwriting, depression etc.

Currently, there is no cure for Parkinson's disease. Instead, therapy is directed at treating the symptoms that are most bothersome to an individual with Parkinson's disease.  For this reason, there is no standard or "best" treatment for Parkinson's disease that applies to every patient.

Ayurveda was found to be an effective treatment for patients with Parkinson's disease. Ayurveda is an ancient Indian system of medicine. It has an integrated approach to the prevention and treatment of illness and tries to maintain or re-establish the harmony between the mind, body, and forces of nature.

A combination of Ayurvedic Panchakarma therapy along with the researched internal medicine can produce a tremendous effect. If patient is already on allopathic medication, these treatments can be combined with them. This treatment regime even proves effective in controlling the side effects of allopathic medications and is able to minimize the dosage of allopathic medications.

One of the best things with Ayurvedic treatment is- Ayurveda can effectively control the disease progression. An improvement in the quality of life of the patient is very much possible with Ayurveda.

If a patient can come in the initial stages before starting the allopathic medication, the results are wonderful.
