Ayurveda Treatment for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Along with treatment, numerous dietary and activity modifications have found to be useful when done under a doctor's supervision.

Panchakarma Treatments

Using panchakarma therapies, internal medicines, and physiotherapy, RA can be effectively controlled in Ayurveda. The inflammatory synovium invades the joint's cartilage and eventually its bone as the illness worsens.

The standard procedure includes 

• Rukhana(to reduce the swelling): This includes udwarthanam, avikizhi, valuka sweda, dhanyamla dhara, podikizhi & kashaya dhara.

• Vaitarana basti.

Ayurvedic Supplements for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Preferable are medications with immune-modulating and anti-inflammatory properties. These lessen tissue damage and pain by blocking the chemicals that induce inflammation.

• Guduchi (Tinospora cordifolia)
• Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera)
• Eranda (Ricinus communis)
• Ginger (Zingibe officinale)
• Haridra (tTurmeric) 

Physiotherapy for Rheumatoid Arthritis

Physiotherapy assists patients in managing chronic pain and disability by creating programmes that target many aspects such as flexibility, endurance, aerobic condition, range of motion (ROM), strength, bone integrity, coordination, balance, and fall risk.

Use cryotherapy for acute conditions and hot treatments for chronic conditions prior to exercising.Then, if at all possible, advance to a high-intensity exercise program from a moderately intense one with the goal of enhancing aerobic capacity, strength, and endurance.

Exercises that activate the sensorimotor system can help to enhance a joint's stability and coordination. Take balance-board standing, for example. Coordination, balance, and motion control are essential for these workouts.

By improving their muscle strength, cardiovascular endurance, joint mobility and stability, and/or coordination, exercise therapy helps patients with RA function better on a daily basis and in social circumstances.

Yoga for Rheumatoid Arthritis

As we already know, stress exacerbates both the disease and the symptoms of RA. Because of this, it's imperative to pay attention to your body and learn how to properly manage stress. Exercises like this are genuinely flexible. There are several methods to modify yoga such that it protects your joints.

Yoga has many health advantages and can be a fun and meaningful substitute for more conventional fitness regimens like aerobics or swimming. Doing yoga can help a person feel a lot less frustrated and stressed.

In order to deal with the discomfort and limitations that arthritis causes, patients sorely need additional activities in their lives. That means that yoga might have more positive effects on the physical and emotional health of those with arthritis.
