A Crash Course in Ayurvedic Therapy
Ayurveda is an ancient science. It is not just about diagnosing people of their illnesses. It is about leading a healthy and balanced life in mental, physical and divine level. It explains how the air we breathe, the food we eat, the air that we breathe, freshness of nature, fragrance of flowers, beauty of nature, all affect our lives.
Ayurveda is Indian holistic science of dealing with ailments of human body. It is based on the universal law of balancing five elements which are fire, air, earth, ether and water. These five elements make the physical body. Health problems such as low back pain affect the strength and flexibility of spine causing pain, when one of the above stated goes out of balance.
As per Ayurveda, treatment of all sorts of liver ailments concentrates on Pitta dosha and not on liver. Imbalances of Agni and pitta give birth to different types of liver ailments. Ojus is affected too. The Pachaka Pitta is based on liver; therefore all the ailments of liver are treated simultaneously with the treatment of Pachaka Pitta.
Liver is organ of fire too as it has Tejo agni, Vayavya Agni, Nabhasa Agni, Parthiva Agni and Apo Agni in it. Ranchaka pitta and all these agnis in liver, break down the substances into their elemental factors such as vayu(air), thejus(fire), akasham(space), prithvi(earth) and ap(water). Then these elements are distributed to their respective tissues (dhatus) in the physical body.
Individual constitution is determined on the basis of the balance between doshas and the predisposition of disease is also based on it. The strength of digestive fire (agni) and the bowel function (kostha) affects the constitution of body. Physical body is made up of seven tissues (dhatus) and the waste products (malas) excreted by them. Fluids and essences are circulated around the body through network of channels. The physical health and mental ability is also affected with three universal constituents who are interdependent on one another. These are the three gunas namely activity (rajas), purity (sattva) and solidity (tamas).
