Abstract: We reported a 16-year old male student with a history of neurological disorders (Seizures) and a significant reduction in the frequency of recurrence of seizures through a practice of Acupressure 14 points exercise. Administration of anticonvulsant drugs combined with Acupressure 14 points exercise therapy designed by SWAMIJI Vethathiri Maharishi, South Indian Born Saint and Savant (1911--2006) was followed. Acupressure 14 points exercise therapy was practiced by the patient for one year unintermittently and that too one minute at each point and four times a day. This resulted in a remarkable recovery from the frequency of occurrence of seizures to lead a normal lifestyle and tapering of anticonvulsant drugs. Acupressure 14 points exercise therapy designed by Swamiji Vethathiri..........

Abstract: La maladie coeliaque est une entéropathie inflammatoire chronique, auto-immune, caractérisée par une réaction immunitaire anormale qui entraine une atrophie villositaire(AV)[1]. Il s'agit de la cause la plus fréquente d'AV, sa prévalence est élevée en europe, USA et en Afrique du nord [2]. Au Maroc, la prévalence exacte de la MC est non connue faute d'étude épidémiologiques nationales. La prévalence serait de 5,6% si on extrapole les résultats d'une étude réalisé à Casablanca. Dans le service de Gastroentérologie du CHU HASSAN II 144 cas de maladie coeliaque sont suivis.
