Reversing Arthritis and Controlling Knee Pain

Ayurveda defines arthritis and related joint pain under Vaat Rogah ( वातरोग) meaning diseases originated from Vayu-Prakop ( वायु प्रकोप) which is more an age related issue, caused by impure or Dushit Vaayu ( दूषित वायु ) , which moves around in the entire body and accumulates at the weak, and worn out parts of the body, causing pain. Knee joint is the most vulnerable because of our sedentary lifestyle, wrong habit of sitting on soft surfaces (that blocks blood circulation) and age related wear and tear of cartilage. Vayu has several functions; one of them is "drying". It dries out the cartilage cushion at the joints, thus resulting in the friction of bones that lead to swelling of tissue and pain. Natural healing system reacts to this phenomenon by accumulating excess synovial fluid around the joint, known as knee effusion, which restricts smooth movements and make exercise painful.
