Arthritis

Are you suffering from constant joint pain and stiffness?

What is Arthritis?

Arthritis, or Santhi Gata Vata in Ayurveda, is the inflammation of joints and their related structures, or rather the localization of Vata entity in the joints (Sandhi). This occurs as a result of diminished digestive fire (Agni) culminating in accumulation of metabolic toxins(Ama). Arthritis or degenerative joint disease are terms used to describe the loss of cartilage in the affected joints.

Signs and Symptoms of Arthritis

The cardinal features include:

  • Pain
  • Stiffness
  • Decreased range of movements
  • Swelling
  • Tenderness
  • Difficulty in walking
  • Fatigue

In chronic cases:

  • Redness
  • Warmth
  • Nodular deformities of the joint.
  • Arthritis can damage the heart, eyes, lungs, kidneys, and skin in addition to the joints.

Ayurveda Treatment for Arthritis

Ayurveda heals Arthritis by halting the etiopathogenesis at its root. According to Ayurveda principles, weak digestive fire( Agni) and metabolic toxins (Ama),obstruct proper systemic metabolism, and result in the progressive formation of Arthritis.Vitiated Vata dosha is responsible for pain and stiffness in the joints.

To relieve this disease manifestation, the Arthritis treatment begins by boosting the digestive fire and eliminating the vitiated Dosha from its area of aggravation.The Ayurveda arthritis treatment begins with usage of digestives and carminatives  to optimise the digestive fire and eliminate the upshot of weak digestion. Further suitable methods of Oleation therapy and fomentation therapies are initialised to loosen the vitiated entities. Later the malfunctioning entity is expelled from the body using Panchakarma or detox therapies that function at grass-root level.The Panchakarma treatment ranges from Abhyanga, Sirodhara, Pizhichil to different forms of Kizhi and Basti. The whole process of healing is accelerated by using appropriate herbal medicines and herbo- mineral combinations which are custom tailored. Ayurveda also successfully minimises the likelihood of serious health problems in the future developing from the untreated underlying cause since it concentrates on the root-cause of the ailment.

When the condition is particularly chronic or severe, Ayurveda treatment for Arthritis can greatly reduce its debilitating effects or help prevent it from getting any worse.
