Numbness or tingling in the extremities often signals nerve compression or impaired circulation. At AVK, we investigate the root cause — whether cervical, lumbar or systemic — and treat it through nerve-nourishing Marma therapy, herbal bandaging and internal formulations.

Numbness (Supti) is a vata disorder where the flow of prana through the nerves is obstructed. Treatment clears the channels (srotoshodhana) through targeted marma stimulation, nourishes nerve tissue via medicated herbal bandaging and restores normal vata movement from within.
Every treatment plan is individualised after a thorough consultation. Below is the typical protocol.
Stimulation of marma points along the affected nerve pathway to restore the natural flow of prana and reactivate sensation.
Medicated oils with nerve-nourishing herbs (Dhanwantaram, Ksheerabala) applied along the affected limb and secured with therapeutic bandages.
Rasayana formulations to strengthen and regenerate nerve tissue — typically over 3–6 months.
Activity modification, gentle nerve-stimulating exercise and a nourishing, vata-pacifying diet.
