Understanding Arthritis (गठिया) from Ayurvedic Perspective
Key Symptoms: joint pain and tenderness, stiffness especially in morning, swelling and warmth in joints, reduced range of motion, fatigue.
Ayurvedic Root Cause: Vata dosha vitiation accumulating Ama (metabolic toxin) in Sandhi (joints) — impaired digestion is root cause.
Modern medicine provides symptomatic relief for Arthritis but rarely addresses the underlying doshic imbalance. Ayurveda corrects this fundamental imbalance — providing more lasting and holistic healing. The Ayurvedic approach combines targeted herbs, dietary changes and lifestyle modifications for comprehensive management.
