Ayurvedic Skin Disease Treatment

Skin diseases are conditions that affect your skin's appearance, texture, or function. These can range from temporary rashes and allergies to chronic conditions like psoriasis and eczema. The skin, being the largest organ of the body, often reflects internal imbalances and toxins in the blood.

Common skin conditions include inflammatory diseases (eczema, dermatitis, psoriasis), infections (bacterial, fungal, viral), autoimmune disorders (vitiligo, lupus), and chronic conditions (acne, rosacea). Many skin problems originate from imbalances in the digestive system, liver function, or immune response.

According to Ayurveda, most skin diseases (Kushta Roga) result from imbalances in the three doshas - Vata, Pitta, and Kapha, along with impurities in the blood (Rakta dhatu) and tissues. Modern lifestyle factors like stress, poor diet, environmental toxins, and hormonal imbalances further aggravate these conditions.

Symptoms may include itching, redness, inflammation, scaling, pigmentation changes, blisters, or eruptions. Early diagnosis and holistic treatment are essential to prevent chronicity and complications that can affect both physical appearance and psychological well-being.

At Jeevanya Ayurveda, our skin disease treatment is based on ancient Ayurvedic principles that focus on purifying the blood, balancing doshas, and detoxifying the body from within. We utilize a powerful combination of scientifically-backed herbs including Neem (Azadirachta indica) for blood purification, Manjistha (Rubia cordifolia) for skin complexion and detox, Turmeric (Curcuma longa) for anti-inflammatory action, Khadeer (Acacia catechu) for healing skin lesions, and Aloe Vera for soothing and regeneration.

Our comprehensive dietary protocol emphasizes skin-friendly nutrition that supports healing from within. We recommend bitter and astringent foods to cleanse the blood, cooling foods to balance Pitta, high-fiber diet for regular bowel movements, and antioxidant-rich fruits and vegetables. We guide patients to avoid inflammatory foods like dairy, gluten, processed foods, and sugars that can aggravate skin conditions.

Beyond herbal treatment, our holistic approach includes Panchakarma therapies like Virechana (purgation) and Rakta Mokshana (bloodletting) for deep detoxification, external applications of medicated oils and pastes, yoga asanas to improve circulation, stress management through meditation, and lifestyle modifications that support skin health. Each treatment plan is customized based on your unique Prakriti and Vikriti.
