Why Ayurveda ?


Ayurveda is a clinically time tested comprehensive system of Healthcare, an ancient science and the precursor for most systems of medicine and surgery in the world. It finds a need, has scientific relevance, has been aggressively researched up on and can contribute significantly to the varied medical and lifestyle needs of modern day.

Latest advancements in diagnostic methods and allied medical fields can seamlessly be interpreted and integrated with Ayurvedic practice and Prasida Ayurveda Clinic is a need based doctor centric institution and is all about bringing genuine Ayurveda closer to people who have conditions that require medical attention. 

The concept of a day care clinic has been planned keeping in mind the accessibility, travel time, cost effectiveness and benefit from a facility that makes Ayurveda a practical, simple and safer alternative to the conventional care.

Clinical practice of Ayurveda by the Ayurvedacharyas at Prasida is backed by a 9 year presence at Calcutta.  It has given us sufficient impetus to develop and refine protocols  that are both, geographically  and demographically relevant. Detailed health evaluation followed by prescribed internal medications, external therapies, Shodhana Panchakarma, diet and lifestyle counseling with guidance on Yoga and Meditation techniques form the basis of practice. Formulations from The Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala and other quality pharmaceutical houses of Ayurveda add to the efficacy of the prescriptions.

Ayurveda being an independent and a complete system of healthcare, has specialized solutions to various categories of diseases that afflict the physical, psychological and spiritual domains. Lifestyle diseases, chronic conditions like Auto Immune Disorders, Degenerative disorders and a number of other conditions seemingly respond well to Ayurvedic methods.

Our range of external Therapies :

The list of therapies in Ayurveda is exhaustive and to give you a bird's eye view, the following are some of the treatments that you may experience when on a therapeutic program at Prasida.

Abhyangam
, forms the basis of all external therapies in Ayurveda, here the body is conditioned to soak up the herbal oils that are of high therapeutic value. Each session is customized after the analysis of the strength of the patient, the disease and the medication. The duration of this therapy is decided by the Ayurvedacharya and generally; unless specified it lasts for about an hour.

Shirodhara
is necessarily preceded by a session of Abhyangam, here a caressing flow of healing oils or extracts is gently oscillated on the forehead. This is a very efficient way to treat conditions like stress, degeneration etc concerning the nervous system.

Patrapinda Swedana is a clinically proven technique to attend to stubborn conditions affecting deeper tissues like the bones, joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments. It is here that energizing and exercising of tissues happen simultaneously when the body is being drained of the toxic build up that creates conditions like rheumatism, arthritis, myalgia and conditions affecting the back like spondylitis etc. This therapy follows abhyangam and involves synchronized and rhythmic application of therapeutically active herbs bundled into bags called "pottalis" in a very traditional manner to harness clinical benefits from a combination of active herbal oils, pressure, temperature and technique.

Shodhana Panchakarma:

The zenith of all therapeutic approaches in Ayurveda is termed as Shodhana or Panchakarma, a very few Ayurveda hospitals offer the complete range of Shodhana programs for want of expertise.

Nasya
is supposed to be the first among all the Panchakarmas. It is intended to flush out the toxins of the head and neck region. Here the medications are instilled in the nostrils after conditioning the body with Abyhangam and Swedana. This technique is employed to treat conditions like sinusitis, frozen shoulder, cervical spondylitis and allied neuropathies.

Vamana
is a Shodhana of intensive nature specific to treat Kapha related disorders that can be of auto immune nature or chronic chest conditions like asthma, bronchitis, cough etc. Here the toxins exit through a programed regurgitation.

Virechana
a more convenient way to de-toxify the system. Over a period of about 15 days the body is conditioned, toxins are agitated, dislodged, dragged towards the intestines and purged.

Vasti is in short "the rectal route of medication", the medications given using Vasti techniques are not denatured before they can show a systemic action. This opens up avenues for management and cure for an entire gamut of conditions that can be difficult to treat in any other method.
Vasti therapies are recommended for chronic and deep seated conditions affecting nerves, orthopedic, circulatory and allied systems.

Other therapeutic modalities:

  • Takra Dhaara (Anxiety, depression conditions)
  • Pizhichil (Fibromyalgia, degenerative Osteoarthritis)
  • Navara Kizhi (Neuropathies & neuromuscular ailments)
  • Netra Tarpana (In Ophthalmic conditions)
  • Kati Vasti (Sciatica, Lumber Spondylitis, Disc Prolapse)
