Jointpain

We must make an effort to keep our joints active. You will otherwise notice degenerative conditions of the joints as you grow older with the accompanying pain and discomfort. You will often notice the stiffness of the joints or pain transmitting down the shoulders and arms or fingers with tingling. Ayurveda, fortunately, is very effective in treating this particular complaint with very positive results. There are specific treatment schedules for taking care of these symptoms. Njavara kizhi, pizhichil, kati vasti are some of the treatment that helps alleviate pain. Ayurveda in combination with Yoga and other mild physical exercises can help treat this painful and debilitating illness. A healthy diet along with Ayurveda and Yoga can indeed give you relief from this painful ailment. At Ayurvedagram we see several guests coming in with Spine and Joint care needs.

Chronic pain is usually observed in joints such as hips, knees, shoulders, elbows,  ankles, muscles, spine etc, often accompanied by arthritic conditions, inflammations, degenerative diseases, repeated trauma etc. Many a time chronic pain encourages for analgesic dependence and misuse. The resulting negative emotions, irritability, and feelings of anger often have a negative impact on the patient’s interpersonal relationships.

At Sreechithra Ayurhome, we realise pain as a highly subjective mind and body experience.  We incorporate different diagnostic methodologies in identifying the root cause of pain and plan unique customised treatment strategies to eliminate the causes.

Ayurvedic procedures such as Abhyangam, Kaya Sekam, Pinda Swedham,  Shirodhara etc. along with yoga asanas and pranayama are some of the means to rebalance, strengthen, and purify the mind/body variables that lower our pain sensitivity.
