Sleep is a serious health ailment that affects millions of people. It is one of the most significant human behaviour occupying roughly one third of human life. Sleep occupies a greater portion of our life and is considered as one among the three Upastambhas of existence. Charaka has explained the management of Nidranasha (Insomnia) with both external and internal treatments. Presently people are not getting sufficient hours of sleep because of busy life schedules and overload, as a result of which, work hours have replaced time of sleep. Recent studies have shown that anxiety and stressful environment has created an imbalance in the physiological activity of the body leading to disturbed sleep and other anomalies. A Randomized comparative clinical study of 40 patients suffering with classical signs and symptoms of Anidra (Insomnia) of either sex divided into two groups viz. Group A - (Study group) - Treated with Pippali Moola (Root of Piper Longum) with Guda (Jaggery), Group B - (Placebo Group) - Acacia resin with a study duration of 14 days, including follow-ups.

Ekakushtha is one of the Kshudra Kushtha described in Ayurvedic classics. It predominantly involves Vata and Kapha Dosha and characterized by Asvedanam (Anhidrosis), Mahavastu (large area of involvement), Matsyashakalopamam (scaling), Krishna Aruna Varna (black or reddish brown skin lesion), Kandu (itching) and Rukshata (dryness). In modern science it can be co-related with Psoriasis. According to W.H.O. the world wide prevalence of Psoriasis is 2-3% (April, 2013). In India prevalence of Psoriasis varies from 0.44 to 2.88%. Acharya Charaka mentioned that treatment of Ekakushtha is to be carried out according to involvement of excessive Dosha. It is Bahudosha (excessively aggravated Dosha) and Chirkari (chronic) Vyadhi (disease). In this condition Shodhana Chikitsa (purificatory measures) is best. So in this present study Vamana Karma and Virechana Karma is chosen for the treatment of Ekakushtha. Here 60 cases of Ekakushtha (Psoriasis) were divided into two groups. Group A (30 patients) were subjected to Vamana Karma. Group B (30 patients) were subjected to Virechana Karma. The statistical analysis reveals that Vamana Karma is statistically more significant in the management of Ekakushtha. Here both the therapies i.e. Vamana Karma and Virechana Karma were effective in the treatment of Ekakushtha. But Vamana Karma was more effective than Virechana Karma.

Gridhrasi is one among Vatajananatmaja Vikara characterized by Sthabdhata, Ruk, Toda which radiates from buttock region, lumbar region, thigh, knee, calf muscles and legs. Gridhrasi is of two types viz Vataja and Vata Kaphaja Gridhrasi. Vataja Gridhrasi is characterized by severe pain and Vata Kaphaja Gridhrasi has symptoms viz Tandra, Gaurava and Aruchi. The signs and symptoms of Gridhrasi can be correlated to sciatica of modern medicine. Sciatica is characterized by constant aching pain felt in lumbar region which may radiate to the buttock, thigh, calf and foot and pain is experienced along the sciatic nerve pathway. It is a common condition with lifetime incidence varying from 13% to 40%. Matra Basti is indicated in dis-eases caused by vitiated Vata Doshas and thus considered as one of the treatments for Gridhrasi. It was a comparative clinical study with a pre and post design in 40 patients who were diagnosed with Gridhrasi, were assigned into 2 groups of 20 patients each randomly. After examination MatraBasti had given for group A with Vyoshadi Taila and group B with Sahacharadi Taila after Sthanika Abhyanga and Nad-isweda with respective oil for 7 days. The assessment criteria were noted before and after treatment and on followup. Among the subjective and objective parameters, Group A showed better reduction 51.47% in Ruk, Sthambha, Toda, Gaurava, active and passive SLR test, Bragard’s test and Lumbar movements. Group B does not have statistically significant over Gaurava, left lateral flexion and rotation to leave. Showed reduction 40.49% in Ruk, Sthambha, Toda active and passive SLR test and lumbar movement. Hence it can be concluded that MatraBasti with Vyosadi Tailam is having more effect on symptoms of Gridhrasi and shows long lasting result.
