Their approach addresses both the symptoms and the underlying causes of arthritis, helping individuals regain mobility and lead a pain-free life.

Understanding Arthritis in Ayurveda

What is Arthritis?

Arthritis is an autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks its own tissues, leading to joint inflammation and pain. In Ayurveda, arthritis is known as “Sandhivat” and is caused by the imbalance of Vata dosha and the accumulation of "Ama" (toxins) due to improper digestion and metabolism.

Causes and Symptoms

• Vata Imbalance: Causes dryness, stiffness, and cracking in the joints.
• Ama Accumulation: Leads to inflammation, pain, and swelling.
• Diet and Lifestyle Factors: Unhealthy eating habits, lack of exercise, and stress contribute to arthritis symptoms.

Common symptoms include joint pain, stiffness, swelling, and decreased range of motion.

Ayurvedic Approach to Arthritis Treatment

Shodhana (Purification Therapy)

Shodhana involves detoxifying the body and removing accumulated Ama. This process includes therapies that cleanse the digestive system and enhance metabolic function.

Shamana (Palliative Treatment)

Shamana therapies aim to balance the doshas and alleviate symptoms. These treatments include herbal remedies, dietary changes, and lifestyle modifications tailored to each individual's constitution (Prakriti) and specific condition (Vikriti).

Personalized Care

A comprehensive assessment is conducted to determine the unique dosha balance and underlying causes of arthritis. Based on this, a customized treatment plan is created that addresses both the symptoms and the root causes of the disorder.

Effective Ayurvedic Treatments for Arthritis

1. Choorna Kizhi

This therapy involves the application of heated herbal powders tied in cloth bundles over the body. It promotes sweating, reduces pain, and alleviates joint stiffness and swelling.

2. Njavara Kizhi

In this treatment, bundles filled with Njavara rice cooked in milk and herbal decoctions are applied to the body. This nourishes the joints, alleviates inflammation, and improves flexibility.

3. Pizhichil

Also known as the "royal treatment," Pizhichil combines warm oil massage with heat therapy. Continuous streams of warm medicated oil are poured over the body while being massaged, enhancing blood circulation and joint lubrication.

4. Virechana

Virechana therapy involves induced purgation to eliminate toxins from the body. This cleansing process starts with medicated ghee, followed by herbal laxatives to purify the digestive system and reduce Vata imbalances.

5. Abhyanga

Abhyanga is a full-body massage using warm, medicated oils suited to your dosha. It lubricates the joints, reduces pain, improves muscle tone, and enhances overall circulation and relaxation.

6. Vasti

Vasti involves administering medicated oils or herbal decoctions through enemas. This treatment is crucial for removing toxins, balancing Vata, and deeply nourishing the joints.

7. Upanaham

Upanaham is the application of a medicinal paste over swollen and painful joints. This treatment helps reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and enhance the healing of affected areas.
