BUDDHI CLINIC Organised THE PROBLEM CHILD<\/p>\n

\"Faceinews<\/a><\/p>\n

We have great pleasure in welcoming you to the inaugural ceremony of \u201cThe Problem Child\u201d by the Honourable Governor of Tamil Nadu, Shri. Banwarilal Purohit. This day-long symposium for doctors and allied health professionals aims to focus on children with problems of brain functioning and mental health.<\/p>\n

All of us are aware that children are the future of India and the world, and their health and wellbeing are fundamental to our National and global growth. It has been pointed out, that our human capital as a society includes good physical, mental and cognitive health; especially that of children and youth. Indeed, to this we may add \u201cspiritual health\u201d also as many leading global organisations recommend.<\/p>\n

The Problem Child:<\/p>\n

It has been estimated variously that between 15 and 20% of school goers have problems with learning, cognition, behaviour and mental health, which disadvantage their human capital and potentially affect their contribution to society at large. It is imperative that we make significant strides in understanding disorders of brain and mind in childhood, leading to early diagnosis, early interventions and appropriate care.<\/p>\n

Our three guest speakers today, two from Johns Hopkins University, USA (Dr. Joyce Harrison & Dr. Jay Salpekar) and one from India, Dr. Pramith Rastogi (having trained in Johns Hopkins), are working at the forefront of pediatric neuropsychiatry, a new discipline that is focused on the brain & mind of the child, from disease to health. The symposium honours two distinguished Indians from this part of the world: Late Shri. Appa Rao a freedom fighter turned rural industrialist represented here by his grandchildren and Late Dr. Krishnamoorthy Srinivas a doyen of community neurology in India.<\/p>\n

Through 7 lectures on topics like Autism, ADHD, Epilepsy, Stress & Mental health, the three experts will enlighten the Indian audience on the recent advances in the care of \u201cThe Problem Child”. Such care goes beyond medication to include education and therapy efforts. While Dr. Jay Salpekar in his lectures will emphasise the importance of low threshold of suspicion (is there a problem?) to information sharing (early diagnosis) and early intervention (medical and therapeutic) Joyce Harrison will emphasise the need to develop best practice models of care that link medical specialists, multidisciplinary professionals, schools and other organisations that engage in care. Dr. Pramit Rastogi in his lectures will address Autism and ADHD, two early developmental conditions that pose challenges for the children so affected, their families, teachers and communities.<\/p>\n

Shri. Banwarilal Purohit will release the TAMIL translation of \u201cAutism- the Buddhi Book\u201d a compilation of facts about this important condition that affects the brain and mind, as also case studies and experiential research descriptions of how the integrated care approach, helps the children so affected. Published by Buddhi Clinic, the book outlines the integration of modern science and ancient wisdom, the use of Ayurveda, Naturotherapy, Acupressure and Reflexology in tandem with behavioural, occupational, neurodevelopmental and speech therapy, which are conventionally Buddhi Clinic combines modern technology in the best scientific traditions of medicine and healing with ancient wisdom, from diverse medical systems. Such integrated care, leverages on scientific advances, yet respects the wonderful traditions and knowledge of our ancients. As described therein, Buddhi Clinic\u2019s “Seva program” takes these treatments through their mobile therapy units, to special schools and institutions for the differently-abled, free of cost, the program being supported by Corporate Social Responsibility of major industrial groups.<\/p>\n

The Honourable Governor in his address will highlight
\n– The importance of children as society\u2019s most valuable human capital
\n– the importance of Buddhi Clinic\u2019s pioneering model that brings together, holistically, the best of modern science and the wisdom of ancient healthcare traditions including Ayurveda and Yoga<\/p>\n

– The value of our \u201cjoint family system\u201d and the importance of retaining the social fabric of the \u201cintegrated family\u201d.
\n– the importance of empowering key stakeholders, doctors and other medical professionals, rehabilitation professionals, teachers in special schools and families of those children affected by disorders of the brain and mind
\n– The importance of supporting the caregivers who are engaged in a lifetime of effort
\n– pay tribute to both professionals and families engaged in the care of \u201cThe Problem Child\u201d and encouraged them to identify the sphere of activity their ward excelled in, so that this may be encouraged and developed further<\/p>\n

The day long program which will be attended by 250 professionals and lay intelligentsia will include a day-long \u201cBuddhi Immersion\u201d, an exposition of integrative healthcare as pioneered and practised by \u201cBuddhi Clinic\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
