Ankylosing Spondylitis
Safe • Natural • Long-Lasting Relief
Need long-lasting relief from Ankylosing Spondylitis (AS)?
Ayurvedic treatment for Ankylosing Spondylitis offers a safe, natural, and effective approach by addressing the root cause of the disease rather than only managing symptoms.
Ankylosing Spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory disease that primarily affects the spine. Over time, inflammation can cause some of the small bones in the spine to fuse, leading to stiffness, pain, and reduced flexibility. The disease commonly affects the sacroiliac joints (between the spine and pelvis).
In advanced cases, fusion of the spine may lead to a permanent hunched posture and difficulty in breathing if the ribs are involved. This condition is more common in men and typically occurs between 16–40 years of age.
Ayurvedic Home Remedies
- Boil 2–3 raw garlic cloves in cow’s milk and water for 10 minutes; drink the milk and chew the garlic
- Mix dried ginger powder, fenugreek seed powder, and cumin seed powder in equal quantities; take 1 teaspoon twice daily with warm water
- Take Castor oil (20 ml) at bedtime
- Hot sand-bag fomentation helps reduce pain and stiffness
Ayurvedic Perspective of Ankylosing Spondylitis
According to Ayurveda, Ankylosing Spondylitis is caused by aggravated Aam (toxins) and Vata dosha imbalance. Weak digestive fire leads to the formation of Aam, which weakens immunity. Aggravated Vata causes inflammation of spinal joints, leading to pain, stiffness, and restricted movement.
Effects of Aam (Toxins)
- Stiffness
- Reduced mobility
- Blockage of body channels
- Accumulation of toxins
Effects of Aggravated Vata
- Tissue degeneration
- Muscle spasms
- Movement-related disorders
- Exact cause is unknown; it is considered an autoimmune disease
- Presence of the HLA-B27 gene increases the risk
- Environmental and immune system factors contribute to disease onset
- Weak immune system may play a significant role
- Persistent pain and stiffness in the lower back and hips
- Pain and stiffness in the neck and upper spine
- Fatigue associated with chronic pain
- Gradual onset of pain that worsens over months
- Pain and stiffness relieved by movement, heat, or warm showers
- Limited chest expansion and difficulty breathing if ribs are affected
- In chronic cases, bony fusion of the spine, leading to loss of spinal mobility
- Maintain regular bowel movements; avoid constipation
- Include ghee in your daily diet
- Apply heat to affected areas for pain relief
- Eat easily digestible foods; avoid excess oily foods and curd
- Avoid daytime sleeping
- Practice Meditation and Pranayama
Practice yoga under expert guidance:
- Pawanmuktasana
- Bhujangasana
