How Effective Is Ayurvedic Treatment for Psoriatic Arthritis? Can It Help in Long-Term Joint Pain Relief? - #13298
I have been diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, and while painkillers help with temporary relief, I want to explore Ayurvedic treatment for psoriatic arthritis, which is said to focus on natural inflammation reduction and joint healing. Ayurveda believes that psoriatic arthritis is caused by Vata and Pitta imbalance, leading to joint swelling, stiffness, and skin flare-ups. Some of the most recommended Ayurvedic treatments for psoriatic arthritis include Panchakarma detox (Vasti for joint lubrication, Virechana for toxin removal), herbal formulations like Maharasnadi Kwath and Guggulu-based medicines, and external therapies like Pizhichil (oil therapy for pain relief). However, I want to understand how effective these treatments are for reducing pain, improving flexibility, and preventing arthritis progression. If anyone has undergone Ayurvedic treatment for psoriatic arthritis, please share your experience. Did it help in reducing joint inflammation, easing stiffness, or providing long-term relief? How long did the treatment take, and did you have to follow any Ayurvedic dietary or lifestyle modifications along with the therapy?
