Hello Thank you for sharing your concern. I understand how distressing and limiting chronic back and joint pain from facet joint degeneration can be, especially when accompanied by fatigue and stiffness. But dont worry we are here to help you out😊
✅AYURVEDIC PLAN OF TREATMENT
✅INTERNAL MEDICATION
1. Yograj Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after meals with warm water. ( Reduces inflammation, stiffness, and pain in degenerative joint disorders.)
2. Trayodashanga Guggulu – 2 tablets twice daily after food with lukewarm water. ( Strengthens bones, nerves, and joints—especially effective in spinal and knee degeneration.)
3. Dashamoolaristha – 15–20 ml with equal warm water twice daily before food ( Anti-inflammatory, relieves Vata pain, and reduces swelling.)
4. Maharasnadi Kashayam – 15 ml with equal warm water twice daily after food
5. Ashwagandha Churna – 1 tsp with milk at bedtime. ( Rejuvenates tissues, reduces fatigue, and strengthens muscles.)
✅ PANCHAKARMA THERAPY
For chronic or severe cases, Panchakarma gives excellent results:
1. Kati Basti – Local oil pooling over lower back using Mahanarayan Taila relieves facet joint pain and nourishes spinal tissues.
2. Abhyanga (Full body massage) with warm Dhanvantaram Taila – daily to improve circulation and reduce stiffness.
3. Swedana (Steam therapy) after massage – helps relieve stiffness and inflammation.
4. Matra Basti with Dashamoola Taila to pacify aggravated Vata and nourish the spine.
✅DIET AND LIFESTYLE
✅Include
Warm, easily digestible, and unctuous diet. Use of ghee, sesame oil, turmeric, ginger, garlic, and black pepper to combat inflammation. Include milk, almonds, dates, and soups made with moong dal, drumstick, and leafy greens. Drink warm water infused with dry ginger or cumin.
❌ Avoid
Cold, dry, or raw foods. Excess pulses (rajma, chana), junk food, aerated drinks. Sitting for prolonged periods; maintain upright posture. Exposure to cold wind or air conditioning.
✅ Lifestyle Tips
Avoid heavy lifting or sudden twisting movements. Maintain regular sleep and meal timings to stabilize Vata.
Facet joint degeneration is best managed through Vata balancing, detoxification, and joint rejuvenation rather than aggressive painkillers.
With consistent Ayurvedic management including herbal formulations, medicated oils, proper diet, and rejuvenation therapy — you can experience pain relief, improved flexibility, and renewed vitality.
Wishing you a good health😊
Warm regards, Dr Snehal Vidhate
