Effective Ayurvedic Treatments of Joint and Muscle Disorders

Joint and muscles disorders are not only common in elderly people but are fast becoming a cause of concern for younger generations as well. Many different conditions may lead to painful joints and muscle disorders, including osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, bursitis, gout, and any external injuries.

While arthritis is a common ailment in people over the age group of sixty, many young adults are complaining about joint and muscle disorders. Researchers attribute the lack of proper exercise, overuse of gadgets such as mobile phones, tabs, laptops, and unhealthy lifestyles like irregular sleep cycles and eating habits to the causes of joint and muscle disorder.

In most cases, the cause of pain originating inside multiple joints is arthritis, a chronic joint disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis or psoriatic arthritis. Ayurveda has the power to cure and heal such disorders.

Instead of opting for off-the-shelf medication, it is advisable to visit an experienced  Ayurvedic practitioner who can detect and analyze the nature of the problem or dosha in the patient.

A comprehensive diet, medication, and exercise can show improvement and cure cases of joint and muscle disorders. Treatments like Abhyanga ( oil massage), Podikkizhi ( Herbal powder massage), Ilakkaizhi (Herbal leaf massage) can prove beneficial for treating similar disorders.  Additionally, types of Panchakarma therapies like Vamana, Virechana, Basti, and Nasyam have shown positive results on patients suffering from such ailments.
