Ah, dealing with psoriasis can be quite challenging, I get it. Ayurveda in Kerala is definitely something people are often drawn to for skin issues like psoriasis. The thing with psoriasis is it’s seen as a complication from imbalances of Pitta and Kapha, and yes, it can involve some deep detox. But about Panchakarma, it’s not always the go-to immediately.
You mentioned treatments like Vamana and Takradhara—yeah, they can be part of a treatment plan but they ain’t a singular magic bullet. Panchakarma, for instance, involves a range of therapies aimed at cleansing and rejuvenating the body, and while its comprehensive approach might promise long-term relief, it requires quite a commitment. Some folks say they see improvement after even just a week or two, but for others, it can take months. And yes, symptoms might return if old habits or imbalances creep back.
Neem and Turmeric are popular in Ayurveda for their anti-inflammatory and blood-purifying properties. Neem oil sometimes is applied directly to the skin, while turmeric might be ingested—a pinch in warm milk or water is common. It’s important, tho, to have these herbal remedies tailored specifically to your constitution, and that’s where consulting with a skilled Ayurvedic doctor really helps.
For your question about centers in Kerala—there are some reputed names like Arya Vaidya Sala in Kottakkal or the Nagarjuna Ayurvedic Group that have been around for ages and have a pretty solid reputation in treating skin disorders. But remember, experiences are personal!
Oh, and before you dive in, think about what your lifestyle will allow. They often recommend diet changes (cut down spicy, oily food, maybe more fruits n’ veggies), yoga, meditation, etc., to keep doshas in check. And patience is key here, sometimes more than the herbs or oils. So, weigh all these things before deciding—hope this helps!
