Arthritis

Arthritis encompasses various conditions characterized by joint inflammation, leading to pain, swelling, and stiffness in areas such as the fingers, hands, toes, feet, ankles, knees, wrists, shoulders, hips, and spine. Common types include osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, gout, and psoriatic arthritis. In Ayurveda, arthritis is often linked to an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which, when aggravated, disrupts the mind’s natural calmness, leading to sleeplessness. To address insomnia, Ayurvedic treatments aim to restore balance through a holistic approach that includes herbal medicines, external therapies, yoga, meditation, and personalized diet and lifestyle plans. This comprehensive strategy not only targets the symptoms but also addresses the underlying causes, promoting overall well-being and restful sleep. Treatment focuses on detoxifying the system, enhancing digestion, reducing inflammation, and balancing the affected doshas. This holistic approach aims to alleviate symptoms and address the root causes of arthritis.
