Disease Management through Ayurveda

Aurvedic Treatment
Ayurveda is intensely rooted in the use of herbs for treating an unhealthy body and majority of ayurvedic medicines are prepared from plants and herbs that have medicinal properties. For disease management, ayurveda generally follows the concept of shodhana and shamana. Shamana refers to lessening and it uses methods to alleviate the disease with its symptoms whereas shodhana means removal and its methods aim at abolition of the root cause of disease.
Ayurveda helps to cure several diseases such as osteoarthritis, neuromuscular disorders, skin diseases, ante natal, post natal and gynecological problems. Osteoarthritis is a degenerative disorder caused by the damage to articular cartilage of long bones. Though an old age problem, in modern life this disorder is found to be occurring in 3rd and 4th decade of life. Now you can take internal medicines through ayurvedic treatments for managing this condition in a better way.
Ayurveda also has proven treatments for allergy related diseases like allergic bronchitis, sinusitis, asthma etc. Ayurveda has also proven effective for several skin diseases. It clarifies the impurity in blood as prime for skin diseases. These diseases can be cured by using blood purification treatments like purgation.
