✅ Osteoarthritis of Knee Joint

Osteoarthritis, or degenerative joint disease, is one of the oldest and most common types of arthritis. It is characterized by a breakdown of the joint's cartilage. Cartilage is the part of the joint that cushions the ends of bones. Cartilage breakdown causes bones to rub against each other, causing pain and loss of movement. Osteoarthritis can range from very mild to very severe, and most commonly affects middle-aged and older people. It affects hands and weight-bearing joints such as knees, hips, feet, and the back.

✅ Causes

Excessive consumption of dry, cold or stale food, exposure to severe cold and dry weather, excessive use of joints, obesity, joint injury, heredity, and old age are the main causative factors.

✅ Symptoms

• Tenderness
• Swelling on joint
• Pain in the joints
• Stiffness and pain when moving or working

🌿 Ayurvedic View

According to Ayurveda, Osteoarthritis occurs due to aggravation of Vata Dosha and is known as Sandhivata (Sandhi means the joint and Vata stands for Vata Dosha).

Vata is an Ayurvedic humor that symbolizes air or wind and governs all movements in the body as well as mind. The condition of Sandhivata is caused when the activities of Vata increase inside the Sandhis or joints. Because Vata is dry in nature, it absorbs the fluidity from any part of the body. It is also destructive or catabolic in nature, which is why it causes destruction of the cartilages and reduction in the Synovial Fluid inside the joint capsule.

💊 Ayurvedic Treatment For Osteoarthritis

Ayurvedic treatment of Osteoarthritis not only prevents further deterioration in the joints but also rejuvenates damaged cartilages. Vata-alleviating treatments through specific herbs are also suggested for lubrication and strengthening of joints.

🌿 Ayurvedic Treatment of Osteoarthritis at Dr. Garje Ayurved

At Dr. Garje Ayurved, we offer effective treatment of Osteoarthritis through a combination of our Ayurvedic formulations and Traditional Ayurvedic combinations.

We have over the years perfected the art and science of treating Osteoarthritis through a conservative approach and avoiding the need for surgery in a vast majority of patients.

We advise a preventive approach to Osteoarthritis as well. Because Osteoarthritis is degenerative in nature and progresses with aging, we advise patients who have just started developing mild problems to start taking some of our joint strengthening formulae and using the oils on their joints regularly.

For those who have more severe symptoms, we also advise them to undergo a full course of detox and strengthening therapies once a year and short courses of detox and strengthening therapy performed over three days once in two or three months, so as to prevent further damage to the tissues and to keep joints strong.

💪 Diet & Lifestyle Advice

• Avoid carbonated drinks, preserved and packaged foods, and dry or cold food items.
• Choose foods that are easy to digest and warming.
• Excessive use of joints and underuse are both problematic, so get some exercise each day, but do not overdo it.
• Try exercises that are easy on the joints such as walking, swimming, and yoga.
• Keep your weight at an optimum level, neither too overweight nor too underweight.
• Do not withhold natural urges (such as burping, urinating, releasing gas, etc.)
