Ayurvedic Approach to Joint & Spine Disorders
Joints play a crucial role in movement and stability. However, various conditions can impair their function, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. In Ayurveda, the bones and joints are considered a site of Vata dosha, making them particularly vulnerable to Vata imbalances. The quality of bone tissue (Asthi Dhatu), nervous tissue (Majja Dhatu), and joint lubrication (Shleshaka Kapha) all contribute to joint health. Additionally, Agni (digestive and metabolic fire) plays a vital role in maintaining healthy joints by ensuring proper tissue nourishment.
At Kutoi Ayurveda Hospital, we offer holistic, natural, and personalized treatments for various joint and spine disorders by addressing their root causes through herbal medicine, Panchakarma therapies, diet, and lifestyle modifications.

Designation
Osteoarthritis (Sandhigata Vata)
Modern View: Osteoarthritis (OA) is a degenerative joint disease caused by cartilage breakdown, leading to pain, swelling, and restricted movement. Ayurvedic View: Ayurveda describes OA as Sandhigata Vata, where vitiated Vata dosha lodges in the joints, causing cartilage degeneration and synovial fluid reduction, resulting in pain and stiffness.
Rheumatoid Arthritis (Amavata)
Modern View: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disorder causing joint inflammation, pain, deformity, and loss of function. Ayurvedic View: RA is described as Amavata, where toxins (Ama) accumulate in the joints due to poor digestion (weak Agni), triggering an immune response and leading to chronic inflammation.
Gout (Vatarakta)
Modern View: Gout is caused by high uric acid levels, leading to joint inflammation, redness, and intense pain. Ayurvedic View: In Ayurveda, gout is Vatarakta, where Vata imbalance and impure blood (Rakta Dushti) cause uric acid accumulation in joints.
Cervical Spondylosis (Greevagata Vata)
Modern View: Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative neck condition that causes pain, stiffness, numbness, and nerve compression, often due to aging or prolonged strain. Ayurvedic View: Ayurveda attributes this to Vata aggravation, leading to dryness, degeneration, and nerve compression in the cervical spine.
Lumbar Spondylosis (Katigata Vata)
Modern View: Lumbar spondylosis is a degenerative spine condition affecting the lower back, causing chronic pain, stiffness, and nerve issues. Ayurvedic View: Ayurveda classifies lumbar spondylosis as Vata Vyadhi, where Vata dosha dries out spinal discs, reducing cushioning between vertebrae and causing pain.
