Rheumatoid Arthritis

Service Description

Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), known as Amavata in Ayurveda, is a chronic autoimmune disorder that affects millions worldwide. While there is no definitive cure for RA in Ayurveda or modern medicine, Ayurvedic treatments, under the guidance of Ayurvedic practitioners, offer effective management and relief from the pain and complications associated with this condition. Rheumatoid Arthritis, often abbreviated as RA, is a complex autoimmune disorder where the body's immune system mistakenly attacks healthy joint tissues. It primarily targets the synovium, which is the lining of the membranes that surround your joints. This chronic inflammation can lead to painful joint damage, swelling, and stiffness. In Ayurveda, Amavata is believed to be caused by an imbalance in the digestive system, leading to the accumulation of ama (toxins) in the body. This ama circulates in the bloodstream and eventually settles in the joints, leading to inflammation and pain. Ayurvedic practitioners emphasize the importance of identifying and rectifying the root cause to manage RA effectively. RA presents with a range of symptoms, including joint pain, swelling, stiffness, fatigue, and a decreased range of motion. It can affect not only joints but also other parts of the body, such as the heart and lungs. Ayurvedic treatment for RA focuses on addressing the root causes by eliminating ama from the body and reducing inflammation. Ayurvedic practitioners use a combination of Ayurvedic herbs, therapies, dietary modifications, and lifestyle changes to manage RA symptoms. Precautions to Avoid Aggravating Rheumatoid Arthritis Avoiding specific foods and habits can help prevent the worsening of RA symptoms. High-fat and processed foods, along with alcohol, should be minimized or avoided. Incorporating gentle exercise or yoga, under the guidance of a qualified practitioner, can help improve flexibility and reduce pain.
