  • Urinary Tract Infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches
    Urinary tract infection (UTI): Western and Ayurvedic Diagnosis and Treatment Approaches. By: Mahsa Ranjbarian Urinary system Renal or Urinary system is one of the 10 body systems that we have. This system is the body drainage system. The urinary system is composed of kidneys (vrikka), ureters (mutravaha nadis), bladder(mutrashaya) and urethra(mutramarga). The kidneys are a pair of bean-shaped, fist size organs that lie in the middle of the back, just below the rib cage, one on each side of the spine. Ureters are tubes that carry the wastes or urine from the kidneys to the bladder. The urine finally exit the body from the urethra when the bladder is full.1 Urethras length is shorter in women than men due to the anatomical differences. Major function of the urinary system is to remove wastes and water from our body through urination. Other important functions of the urinary system are as follows. 1. Prevent dehydration and at the same time prevent the buildup of extra fluid in the body 2. Cleans the blood of metabolic wastes 3. Removing toxins from the body 4. Maintaining the homeostasis of many factors including blood PH and blood pressure 5. Producing erythrocytes 6. make hormones that help regulate blood pressure 7. keep bones strong 8. keep levels of electrolytes, such as potassium and phosphate, stable 2 The Urinary system like any other systems of our body is working under the forces of three doshas, subdoshas. Mutravaha srotas, Ambuvahasrota and raktavahasrota are involved in formation and elimination of the urine. Urine gets separated from the rasa by maladhara kala with the help of pachaka pitta and samana vayu and then through the mutravaha srota(channels carrying the urine) it is taken to the bladder.

  • Critical Appraisal of the Concept of Shodhana and Sadyashodhana Among the Panchakarma
    Int J Ayu Pharm Chem REVIEW ARTICLE www.ijapc.com e-ISSN 2350-0204 Critical Appraisal of the Concept of Shodhana and Sadyashodhana among the Panchakarma 1 2 Satyajit P. Kulkarni *, Milind M. Godbole and Sanjay S. Jadhav3 1Swasthavritta, Yashwant Ayurvedic College and P.G.T.R.C. Kodoli, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India 2,3 Panchakarma, Yashwant Ayurvedic College and P.G.T.R.C. Kodoli, Kolhapur, Maharashtra, India Abstract Shodhana or Panchakarma is the very important part of the Ayurvedic treatment. The period during which Charak Samhita was written, it would have been practiced in greater proportion. There is detailed description about Panchakarma or Shodhana in Charak Samhita, Sushrut Samhita and Ashtang Sangrah (and Ashtang Hridayam). These texts are called as Brihat Trayi . Sharangdhar Samhita and Bhavprakash described Panchakarma concisely as compared to the Brihat Trayi texts. Every disease is told to be treated with Shodhana first1 and Shamana thereafter. The Kalpa sthana and Sidhi sthana of Charak Samhita are solely dedicated to the Shodhana. Thus being an important treatment modality Shodhana is very useful in achieving both the goals of Ayurveda i.e., for maintaining health in the healthy and to treat the disease in the diseased one. This paper deals with theory part of the Shodhana to be applied in the healthy and the diseased. The paper also highlights the difference in implementing the Shodhana in the diseased and healthy one.

    Original Research Paper Volume-9 | Issue-3 | March-2019 | PRINT ISSN - 2249-555X Ayurveda EXPLORING THE CONCEPT OF LEENA(CONCEALED) DOSHA AND APPLICATION OF SHODHANA(BIO-PURIFICATION THERAPY) IN AMAVATA WITH SPECIAL REFERENCE TO RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS Reader, PG Dept of RogaNidana, Parul Institute of Ayurved, Vadodara, GUJARAT, Dr. Sachin. Deva 391760 Assistant Professor/Consultant, Dept of Panchakarma, Parul Institute of Ayurved & Dr. Divya. B Research, Khemdas Patel Ayurved Hospital, Vadodara, GUJARAT, 391760, ABSTRACT Roga(Disease) are Aparisankheyaya(Innumerable) with multiple cause and symptoms. History taking, physical examination and also laboratory investigations plays a key role in diagnosis of disease. Life encompasses the states of health and disease. Ayurveda, the spearhead science deals with these states of life. Various fervent concepts with sturdy bedrocks are laid down for understanding the body. Diagnosis and understanding of diseases is of prime relevance in the eld of medicine. Different principles and methods in unveiling the mechanism of disease have been mentioned in classical texts. One of the most alluring concepts is Leenadosha(Concealed) in the modulation of a disease. Technically Leena term suggests to Conceal/Attach or even Merge. Here the Doshas will be attached or concealed to the Dhatus. So we can frame the quality of Leena dosha as Ekadeshasthita/Anutva and also Dhatvantaragata(Concealed to dhatus). Ama(Toxins from undigested food) is considered as the basic cause for all the disease. The person who is liable to Mandagni(Decreased digestive re) undergoes Viruddahara then Amotpatti is certain. Sanchara(Movement) of Ama due to multiple etiology causes Sthanasamshraya(Connement) especially in Asti(Bones) and Sandhis(Joints) causes Shoola(Pain) in same areas.

In this text different types of shodhana and marana process are described for rasa, maharasa, uprasa, sadharana rasa, ratna, dhatu, upratnas etc. Bhasma is prepared by the marana process and it helps in easy absorption and assimilation due to micro fine element particles and does not produce any side effects in the human body, incinerated dravya will eradicate jara(old age), and diseases. Hence bhasma pareeksha like rekhapurana, apunarbhava, niruthaetc are also described in this text. Due to increase demand of rasaushadhis and commercialization, pharmaceutical companies are compromising with quality and standard of bhasma to prepare them in a short span of time, because processing of bhasma involves heavy labour and lot of tedious procedures like shodhana, mardana(bhawana), marana. If the shodhana process of metals and minerals is not done properly, then it acts as poison and reveals different types of complications in the human body like jwara, bhrama, vamana, kushtha, shool, mrityu etc.

ABSTRACT Swedanam is a therapy which alleviates stiffness, heaviness, coldness & that which brings out sweating from the system is sudation therapy. The perspiration brought about by the sudation therapy is more than the normal. Conventionally the sudation therapy is just understood as the steam bath, but sudation in Ayurveda is something more as a treatment & as a daily routine. Swedana drugs by Ushna and Tikshnaguna are capable of penetrating the microcirculatory channels (Srotas) where they activate the sweat glands to produce mores heat. Swedana Karma hastens this process by increasing the permeability of capillary and bringing the morbidities into an extracellular fluid by dilating and clearing the channels of the body. Swedanakarma maintains the thermoregulation system of the body by maintaining quilibrium between core temperature (temp. inside the body) and shell temperature (skin temp). KEYWORDS: Swedana karma, Sudation therapy, Sweating. INTRODUCTION Sweating treatment (Swedana) is usually Swedana Guna (properties) and its action of body given after oleation- Snehana therapy. Swedana is the [5] procedure that relieves Stambha, Gaurava, Sheeta Ushnata: This is originated from Agneyaguna and is which induces Swedana (Sweating).[1] It plays a dual opposite to Shitaguna.

  • Role of Rasaushadhies in Balancing Doshas W.S.R. to Muscular Disorders
    International Journal of Research and Review www.ijrrjournal.com E-ISSN: 2349-9788; P-ISSN: 2454-2237 Review Article Role of Rasaushadhies in Balancing Doshas w.s.r. to Muscular Disorders Dr. Ravneet Kaur Asst. Prof., Dept. of Rasa Shastra, GNAMC & RI Gopalpur, Ludhiana. ABSTRACT There are different types of muscular disorders in human body. Here is an attempt to find out the improvement in these muscular deficiencies, which causes deformities, with special reference to Rasa Shastra (Pharmaceutics). Rasa Shastra is the branch of science which deals with Alchemy. Its superiority among others is its fast acting tendency, lower dose, palatability, long shelf- life, quicker metabolism, rog (disease) conversion from asadhyata (untreatable) to sadhyata (treatable) stage etc. There are several kashthaushadhi dravyas(plant based medicinal parts) used to nourish doshas (Air, Fire, Water contents) but Rasa Dravyas (other than plant based medicinal parts like metallic, mineral, gems etc.) are more powerful as compared to them. But before consuming Rasaushadhies (mercurial preparations) proper purification (shodhna) of them is utmost important to vanish all the malas (impurities) and doshas (toxicity) to devoid of their toxic and unwanted affects. In case of muscular disorders like atony, in which lack of normal elasticity exists, Rasa Dravyas can help to regain and retain muscular elasticity in different ways. Atrophy is another condition of wasting of tissues due to Vata Vikriti (Air imbalance) which can be controlled. Cramp is an involuntary contraction of skeletal muscles owing to salt’s imbalance can be replenished by Vata (Air) and Kapha (Water) Nash(vanish via balancing them) and fibrositis can be balanced by Vata Nash.
