AYURVEDIC VIEW:

In Ayurveda, Frozen shoulders has been named as " Apabahukam "

Apabahukam is mainly caused due to vitiation of Vata dosha.

 

" Amsamoolasthitho Vayuhu Siraha Sankochya Tathragaha

Bahu Praspanditaharam Janayathi Apabahukam "

 

(ASHTANGA HRIDAYAM)

 

That means Vatha Dosha vitiated due to certain causative factors

(mentioned earlier)

gets to locate at the root of the shoulders constricts the veins

(Siras) produce Apabahukam causing loss of movement of the arm "

 

UNIQUE SPECIALITY OF AYURVEDIC TREATMENT

Generally the sufferers of Frozen shoulders go for usage of Analgesics

, Corticosteroid, anti-inflammatory

 

, etc. This approach may give only a timely cure but not a permanent

relief of the pain, because of which the pain reappears frequently.

This makes the sufferer to have repeated usage of injections &

tablets. The drawback is that these medicines instead of removing the

Root cause, suppresses the symptoms leading to the increase in

severity. Ayurvedic treatment involves mainly the removing the of

root cause & Relief of symptom is only the ultimate cure for the

disease.

Akhil J.L.,

Hari Om !

 

......................................thanks for explanation ! I have

visited 'Santhigiri Ayurveda & Siddha Vaidyasala at Annanagar. The

Ayurvedic treatment, here, includes administration of Herbally

medicated Kashayas, Purgation (for complete removal of toxin of the

body) and Panchakarma treatment includes Oil massage (Abhyanga),

Steam bath (Swedanam), Nasyam,Narangakizhi (A special type of

Panchakarma therapy of Kerala) e.t.c..............

 

but the treatment

is costly. It is good for a DOLLAR-man ............... There are many

Panchakarma therapy Centres in India but a poor or a common man CANN'T

visit these centres due to the treatment cost (.... either added to

therapy or to the room-rent ?). If a therapy isn't in common man's

reach, it becomes a part of ' luxurious life'. 'Santhigiri Ayurveda &

Siddha Vaidyasala' , a reputed centre ( A spiritual Centre or Ashram,

too) , should always find out a way ( ..... it's my request ? ) to

reduce the treatment cost so that a common man can avail the facility

and enjoy the benefits of our ancient system. We should always try to

give the benefits to the grass-root level, if not, the philosophy behind

the ancient system becomes helpless. With best wishes,

 

Swami Brahmavidyananda Saraswati, A Hindu Sannyasi from Uttarakhand,

India

In any system of medicine cost effectiveness  must  be one prime consideration

in the public point of view. on the other hand private sector modern medicine

group tries to grab maximum form  a patient . diagnosis  is very costlier now a

days  than one or two decades back.one has to loose wealth , health and then

death .This happens to many patients.

 

In ancient India  sanyasis were treating people spiritually also used folk

medicine

which was  very cheap. In those days public respected sanyasis and  provided 

free food for them where ever they go. This was ancient culture in Hindu ,

Buddhist  civilizations.

 

They served public in health point and education point and many ways.

 

of course  there were village vaidyas, who moderately charged and Raja vaidyas 

who were costlier doctor in those days.

 

now a days it is extremely costlier to get a quality treatment.

it is because knowledged sanyasis are rare.

 

One sanyasi was living in a  ashram where lot of rats eating grains . He was

troubled and decided to maintain a cat. After cat  came  rat menace diminished

but he needed some milk to support the cat. he bought a cow. After cow came he

got some extra work load  and his friends adviced him to marry a women. He

married. got few children and lived for the welfare of wife , children, cow, cat

etc  and  forgot to meditate.

 

I too like that sanyasi , having many dependents,family , employees and as

everybody needs comfortable life. It has become very difficult to charge

cheaply.
