About Rheumatoid Arthritis
The foundation of our daily movements, our joints support us through every activity, from simple tasks to vigorous exercise. However, as we age, many encounter the common challenges of joint pain and stiffness, emphasizing the critical role of joint health. Ayurveda recognizes the importance of joints, referred to as 'Sandhi', in maintaining overall well-being. 'Vata', 'Pitta', and 'Kapha' doshas are responsible for preserving joint integrity and mobility. When these doshas fall out of balance, it disrupts the joint equilibrium, paving the way for arthritis. From nutrients to support: Joint health relies on a delicate balance of various nutrients, including calcium, which contributes to bone strength. Absorption of calcium starts in the small intestine, with the majority being reabsorbed by the kidneys. Hormonal regulation, particularly by parathyroid hormone, plays a crucial role in maintaining optimal calcium levels, ensuring joint health and function. Arthritis, thus, emerges as a complex interplay between internal imbalances and external factors, impacting joint health and mobility.

Root Causes
  • Accumulation of toxins (ama) in the joints
  • Weak digestion (agni) leading to improper metabolism of nutrients
  • Sedentary lifestyle and lack of physical activity
  • Suppression of natural urges (vega dharana)
  • Emotional stress and mental strain
  • Injuries or trauma to the joints
  • Genetic predisposition
  • Poor posture and improper body mechanics
  • Insufficient rest and sleep
  • Environmental factors such as cold and damp conditions
  • Aging process causing wear and tear on joints
  • Hormonal imbalances
  • Chronic inflammation in the body
Icon
Symptoms
  • Joint pain aggravated by movement
  • Swelling and tenderness in the affected joints

LineBut Why Me?Line

A question that may creep into your mind from time to time!

If a patient, for example, is having a problem with his right knee joint, the Panchabhoutik chikitsa goes further deep to find out the root cause. We can get the answer as to why the patient is having a problem with his right knee, although the right and left knee are the same in age and they sustain equal amounts of body weight.From the food that we eat, our body absorbs the calcium and it is supplied to our bones. However, the cartilage doesn’t grow over time, the way our nails or hair do. Modern medical science generally blames it on the old age, but the Ayurveda has given deep thought to this phenomenon.Prakruti Ayurvedic Health Center addresses these concerns through the following methods:

Consultation linked with blood tests, X-ray, and MRI reports.

Naad-pariksha detects Panchamahabhuta imbalances through sound evaluation.

Nadi-pariksha identifies doshic imbalances and joint abnormalities via pulse.

Udar-parkishan delves into digestive issues affecting nutrient absorption

"Birth-month diagnosis" tailors treatments to individual constitutions.

Tailored Care through Comprehensive Assessment

We begin with a thorough evaluation of your medical history, lifestyle, diet, joint function, and inflammation levels to uncover the root causes of arthritis. This helps us create a personalized plan that goes beyond symptom relief to offer effective, long-term arthritis management.

Oral Medication + Home Detox

Purvakarma is an essential step before Panchakarma, helping remove toxins and prevent discomforts such as nausea or headaches. It enhances results, particularly in post-COVID cases. Under the guidance of expert doctors at Prakruti, oral medications are prescribed according to the root cause, prakruti, and dosha to prepare the body at a deeper level. Home detox (Virechan) further clears toxins and balances Vata for effective purification. Mental preparation (Acharana Rasayan) includes: – Kshardharmi: Avoid anger – Amladharmi: Stay present – Samadharmi: Accept calmly If home preparation is not done it will be administered at Prakruti.

Panchkarma after arrival + Oral Medication

The 15-day treatment is divided into two phases: The first week focuses on detox and boosting metabolism. The next eight days emphasize rejuvenation to reverse degeneration. Niruha Basti/Anuvasan Basti play a key role in improving calcium absorption. Targeted therapies like Janu Basti, Karpur Basti, Ansa Basti, Khubabasti, and Gulfa Basti help restore joint health and overall well-being.

Post-Treatment Support: Minimizing Reliance on Painkillers & Steroids

Our post-treatment approach for arthritis focuses on gradual pain relief and reducing dependence on painkillers and steroids. We support the body’s natural healing with tailored exercises, lifestyle changes, and Ayurvedic medication over 6–9 months to strengthen bones (Asthi Dhatu). Our oral treatment targets root causes, reduces inflammation, and promotes long-term joint health, mobility, and overall well-being.

An Annual Panchakarma Program for Long-Term Wellness

Begin your wellness journey with Apunarbhav Chikitsa, a holistic program to prevent disease recurrence. It includes an annual 3–7 day Panchakarma, along with Rasayan/Vajikaran Chikitsa for rejuvenation. Daily Rasayan support long-term vitality moving beyond short-term fixes to lasting health.

    I have been visiting Prakruti Health Center for the past 20 years, and it never fails to provide a refreshing and revitalizing experience. The Panchakarma treatments are conducted with great care by skilled professionals, ensuring both relaxation and healing.Dr. Suyog Dandekar and his son, Dr. Atharv Dandekar, are incredibly kind and helpful to all their patients. They take the time to understand each individual’s health condition and carefully design treatments that cater to their specific needs. Their expertise and compassionate approach make the healing journey even more effective and comforting.The serene environment, combined with the center’s holistic approach to wellness, makes it a perfect retreat from the hustle of daily life. The food is another highlight—pure vegetarian, fresh, and absolutely delicious. Every meal is thoughtfully prepared to nourish the body while being light and healthy.This was a truly refreshing experience, and I believe it is the perfect place for those seeking a drug-free, natural path to health and well-being. I highly recommend Prakruti Health center to anyone looking for authentic Ayurvedic treatments and a peaceful retreat

    Aditi Parabimg

    Prakruti Ayurvedic Health Center is a really good recommendation for those who are looking forward for ayurvedic treatments. As a diabetic patient myself, I have found myself curing through this use of treatment. The doctors here are very well aware of the techniques and guides each and every patient correctly. They set a daily routine starting from morning 5:30 am and ends by 9 pm. So by this your daily sleep cycle is maintained. The rooms here are very hygienic and clean, well sanitised. The staff are very helpful and very humble. Talking about the location, it’s on the kaas road, beautiful as heaven. The atmosphere is very pleasant and the surrounding is full of greens. They conduct yoga session in the morning which is very enjoyable. No doubt the best part is the food they provide. So those who are looking forward for body detoxification, one should definitely visit this center because it is 10/10.
