The Therapeutic Efficacy of Coconut Oil (Narikela Taila) Abhyanga in Pediatric ADHD: Impact on Sensory Processing and Vata-Pitta Regulation
Abstract: Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) often involves sensory over-responsivity and neurological restlessness. While traditional Ayurvedic Abhyanga often utilizes sesame oil, Coconut Oil (Narikela Taila) offers a unique cooling and soothing profile particularly beneficial for children exhibiting "Pitta-type" ADHD symptoms (irritability, heat sensitivity, and inflammatory responses). This article explores the physiological and psychological effects of Coconut Oil Abhyanga on ADHD patients, highlighting its role in reducing hyperactivity and improving neuro-sensory integration.
Keywords: ADHD management, coconut oil therapy, Ayurvedic massage, sensory regulation, child behavioral care
