Ayurvedic Treatment For Osteo & Rheumatoid

Is the pain in your joints increasing without any sign of recovery despite medication? Does it bring along fever, fatigue and loss of appetite too? These can be signs of Arthritis- either Osteo or Rheumatoid. That causes inflammation in the joints and hence leads to unbearable pain. If not paid attention, this can lead to deformity of joints. The problem is the result of imbalanced vata dosha.

People who are suffering from Arthritis- either Osteo or Rheumatoid, have to come across this situation due to sports injuries and old age to be more prominent, degeneration where the fluids inside our body becomes dry, due to increased toxins thus leading to swelling, inflammation and stiffness. Though both types of Arthritis results in inflammation but Osteo Arthritis results in inflammation with sounds in the joints whereas Rheumatoid Arthritis results in inflammation with stiffness in the joints. People with Osteo Arthritis are recommended oiling, both in massage and diet as well but contrary to it, Rheumatoid Arthritis does not.

The experts at the Ayurvedic centre with resort facility follow a distinct procedure of body cleansing and purification with a prime goal of strengthening your immune system so as to stop any further impairment to the joints.

As you would have often heard, Ayurveda treats the person and not the disease directly. In the case of Rheumatism the Ayurvedic Doctor follows a body cleansing/ purification treatment schedule with the aim of immune correction to stop further attacks and damage of the joints. Thereafter a detailed program is followed which includes Elakizhi, Pizhichil, Muttakizhi, Manalkizhi, Greevavasti, Kadhikizhi, Shirodhara, Nasyam and Januvasti.

One thing to be noted is all the therapies are changed and customized after a consultation with the doctor. Different oils are used for all the people. For example we use altered herbal oil for an overweight person, and different oil for a young individual. Sometimes if oil is not suitable for your ailment the method of Manalkizhi and Udgharshanam is used.
