The dry patches you describe on elbows and knees often relate to imbalances in the vata dosha, which can lead to skin roughness and dryness. AVP Thriphaladi Coconut Oil could indeed be beneficial due to its nourishing and hydrating properties, helping to balance vata.
Thriphaladi oil, with its blend of herbs in a coconut oil base, is traditionally used in Ayurveda to support skin health by enhancing hydration, which improves texture and suppleness. It can make a positive difference if used correctly and consistently. Applying a small amount on the affected areas twice a day, once in the morning and before bedtime, can be effective. You might want to gently massage it into the skin so it absorbs well.
Be sure your skin is slightly damp when applying—doing so right after a shower is ideal—as it helps lock in moisture. With regular use, you may notice the benefits in a few weeks, but consistency is key.
While moisturizers you’ve tried haven’t given lasting results, it’s possible that the combination of the herbs in Thriphaladi is more aligned with addressing your imbalances at a deeper level. Also, take care to support your skin from within by hydrating well, eating foods rich in good fats, and including more sweet, sour, and salty tastes to stabilize vata.
However, if you see no improvement or if there’s a sudden worsening of skin condition, consult a healthcare provider. Persistent skin issues can sometimes signal underlying health concerns that need professional evaluation. Including Ayurveda where appropriate can complement professional advice, but should not replace necessary medical care.
