Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease in which the body’s immune system which normally protects its health by attacking foreign substances like bacteria and viruses mistakenly attacks the joints. This creates inflammation that causes the tissue that lines the inside of joints to thicken, resulting in swelling and pain in and around the joints. The synovium makes a fluid that lubricates joints and helps them move smoothly.
Rheumatoid arthritis most commonly affects the joints of the hands, feet, wrists, elbows, knees, and ankles. The joint effect is usually symmetrical. That means if one knee or hand if affected, usually the other one is, too. Because RA also can affect body systems, such as the cardiovascular or respiratory systems, it is called a systemic disease. Systemic means “entire body.”
Ayurvedic treatments for RA depend on which diagnostic guidelines the practitioner uses. In our best Ayurveda hospital in Kerala our ayurvedic practitioners believe that positive lifestyle habits can support RA treatment. We believe that a poor lifestyle leads to the formation of "ama," which causes inflammation and disease. Our Ayurveda hospital in Kochi has some Ayurvedic recommendations for people with RA:
- using hot water, not cold, to bathe in and drink
- avoiding exposure to cold breezes
- avoiding late-afternoon naps
- practicing yoga to relieve mental stress
- using massage therapy with herbal oils to reduce pain and stiffness
For Ayurvedic treatment for Rheumatic joint disorders in kochi, we do believe that physical activity can help relieve some conditions, they recommend that people with RA avoid excess walking. The Ayurvedic diet is typically based on three doshas: Vata (air), Pitta (fire), and Kapha (water and earth). For rheumatic joint disorders treatment in Ayurveda, we recommend a diet for those living with RA is similar to those of the Ayurvedic condition amavata. Amavata refers to a disease of the joints and causes similar symptoms to rheumatic and joint disorders
