Sensory Motor Axonal Neuropathy (SMAN)
Sensory Motor Axonal Neuropathy (SMAN) is a condition that affects both the sensory nerves (which feel pain, temperature, and touch) and motor nerves (which control movement). People with SMAN often experience:
- Tingling, burning, or numbness in the hands and feet
- Muscle weakness or heaviness
- Loss of balance or coordination
- Difficulty in walking or doing daily activities
How Siddha Therapy Helps in SMAN cases

- Varmam Therapy/Energy sessions – Applying gentle pressure on specific energy points to relieve nerve pain and improve circulation.
- Thokkanam (Therupetic Massage Therapy) – Using warm herbal oils to ease muscle tension and improve nerve function.
- Kaya Karpam – Rejuvenation therapy that helps restore overall vitality and supports long-term nerve healing.
