Observational analysis reveals therapeutic potential for neurological disorders in astronauts, suggesting innovative solutions for health challenges in space voyages.
From day one of entering space voyage almost all the astronauts/Cosmonauts have reported severe Neurological/ Neurodegenerative Disorders, affecting the brain, spinal cord, and nerves in the body resulting in structural, biochemical, or electrical abnormalities, like migraine, tension-type headaches during long-haul space flight, commonly known as Space-headache. Vertigo, as well as there are chances of being caught with Vertigo as well as neurodegenerative autoimmune (Sjogren) diseases; related to Non- Arteritis Ischemic Optic Neuropathy (NAION), resulting from Zero-gravity effect in space amalgamated with negligible available natural oxygen and dependency on portable oxygen. It’s ‘non- arteritis’ because there is reduced blood flow without true inflammation of the blood vessels. It’s an innovative, non-invasive, and affordable ‘Meditational Flares Therapy’ (‘MFT’) for the Remediation of Neurological & Neurodegenerative Diseases and may be performed very conveniently during space -voyages, without any side effects
