Bones and Joints
Osteoarthritis (OA) is the most common joint disorder. OA occurs when the cartilage between two joints wears down so the bones rub together, resulting in swelling and stiffness. Symptoms usually appear in middle age, and almost everyone has some symptoms by the age of 70.
Symptoms
- Joint pain and swelling
- Mild joint stiffness and swelling sometimes occurs
- Morning stiffness that lasts more than one hour, typically in the morning
- Swelling, warmth, or redness over the joint
Ayurvedic treatment
Ayurvedic physicians can choose ideal combinations for each individual. The therapies like Tailadhara (pouring of medicated oils), Nhavarakkizhi (massage with bolus of rice boiled in medicated milk) and Ksheera vasthi are among the most effective therapies for preventing degeneration and to strengthening the joints.
They also help in preventing further degeneration with regular use. Patients who have recently developed the problem invariable respond to these medicines and can prevent further episodes through maintenance comprising of exercises and in some cases anti-degenerative medicines.
Arthritis
Osteoarthritis causes cartilage — the hard, slippery tissue that covers the ends of bones where they form a joint — to break down. Rheumatoid arthritis is a disease in which the immune system attacks the joints, beginning with the lining of joints.
Symptoms
- Pain
- Stiffness
- Swelling
- Redness

Ayurvedic treatment
Ayurveda is an ancient form of medicine that started in India. It uses nutrients, exercise, and meditation together to encourage good health. Combining certain nutrients and other supplements with modern medicine may be beneficial if you have arthritis.These natural treatments may help to ease some of your arthritis symptoms and help prevent progression.
Some Ayurvedic medicine formulations also contain “bhasma,” which are specially prepared forms of metals, such as silver, copper, and iron.
Slip Disc
A slipped disc is when a soft cushion of tissue between the bones in your spine pushes out. It's painful if it presses on nerves. It usually gets better slowly with rest, gentle exercise and painkillers.
Symptoms
- Lower back pain
- Neck Pain
- Muscle Weakness
- Problems bending or Straightening Your Back
Ayurvedic treatment
The Ayurvedic texts consider the disc as a representative of Majaa dhatu and Kapha dosha. Kapha is one of the three primary doshas managing and governing our body.
Therefore, the slip disc treatment in ayurveda includes virechana, Basti and Nasya from classical Panchakarma. There are some other procedures like - Shalwana Sweda, Updeha, Kati Basti, Greeva Basti, etc. Most of all these procedures have oils and ghee. We use medicated ghee and oils.
Sciatica
Sciatica pain is caused by an irritation, inflammation, pinching or compression of a nerve in the lower back. The most common cause is a herniated or slipped disk that causes pressure on the nerve root. Most people with sciatica get better on their own with time and self-care treatments.
Symptoms
- Moderate to severe pain in lower back, buttock and down your leg.
- Numbness or weakness in your lower back, buttock, leg or feet.
- “Pins and needles” feeling in your legs, toes or feet.
- Loss of bowel and bladder control (due to cauda equina).
Ayurvedic treatment
Babunah is also known as Bitter Chamomile. Not only is it used to relieve and reduce the pain faced by a sciatica patient, but it is also used for treating problems such as rheumatism due to the advancement of age.
Guggulu is also known as Indian Bdellium. Since guggulu is well known for its anti-inflammatory properties, it relaxes the sciatic nerves.
