HELLO,
When menopause occurs, the body’s production of estrogen decreases sharply. Estrogen is not just a reproductive hormone- it also supports -bone strength and calcium absorption -muscle tone and elasticity -circulation and nerve nourishment
WHEN IT DECLINES -bones and muscles become weaker -vata dosha becomes dominant -this aggravated vata dries up tissues leading to stiffness, cracking joints, spasms, and pain
So, chronic leg and muscle pain in post menopausal some often reflects vata imbalance with tissue depletion a combination of vata vriddhi and dhatu kshaya

Experiencing leg and muscle pain along with backaches post-menopause can be quite uncomfortable, often linked with the Vata dosha imbalance due to the depletion of estrogen. Ayurveda suggests balancing Vata and nourishing tissues to help ease your condition.
Firstly, understanding your daily routine is crucial. Consider incorporating a wake-up routine aligned with nature—rise with sunrise, and engage in daily Abhyanga (oil massage) using warm sesame or Mahanarayan oil, which is excellent for pacifying Vata. Apply oil generously to your legs, back, and other affected areas, letting it sit for 20-30 minutes before a warm bath. The warmth aids in better penetration of the oil, alleviating pain and stiffness.
Ensure your diet is Vata-pacifying, encompass warming and nourishing foods. Include ghee, whole grains like cooked oats, and root vegetables such as carrots and sweet potatoes. Avoid cold, dry, and raw foods which can aggravate Vata, and introduce herbal teas like ginger or cinnamon, known for their warming properties.
Yoga can be particularly beneficial, focusing on gentle poses that stretch and strengthen your lower body and back. Try Surya Namaskar (Sun Salutations) and Balasana (Child’s Pose) for starting. A regular practice can help in maintaining flexibility and easing pain.
Simple herbal remedies can also support your health. Consider taking Ashwagandha, an adaptogen that supports energy levels and reduces inflammation. You might take one capsule or a teaspoon with warm milk before sleeping. It’s advised to consult an Ayurvedic practitioner before starting new herbs, especially if taking other medications.
Lastly, focus on stress management—an important aspect often overlooked. Meditation or breathing exercises like Pranayama can help calm your mind, indirectly benefiting your body’s response to pain. As always, if pain persists, do consult a healthcare provider for a comprehensive assessment.
