Ayurveda For Detox : An Ancient Approach !

The concept of  detoxifying  the body has become popular in the modern era. But if we take a closer look, we’ll find that Ayurvedic vaidyas have been touting the benefits detoxification for thousands of years. Unlike modern detoxification goals, however, when using Ayurveda for  detox , you are not limited to the digestive system and body — to function smoothly, effectively, and without impairment, the body, mind, and spirit must all be in harmony. Ama ,  Agni  and  Detoxification If we look at digestion through an Ayurvedic lens, we would understand that finding balance through the right kinds of foods, a centered lifestyle, and de-stressing techniques would all contribute to good health. The Sanskrit word for this harmonious state is  Agni , the first word written in the Vedas. Its antithesis is  Ama , which points to a toxic buildup. Ama results not only from dietary issues, but also from emotional, mental, and spiritual imbalances. Fortunately, Ayurveda has a prescription that has

Vaginal Dryness 🔥🚫💦 Try these Ayurvedic Remedies 😉

Menopause manifests in many symptoms, and vaginal dryness is one of them. However, vaginal dryness can happen at any age. The estrogen produced in a woman’s body stimulates the vaginal tissues to keep the vagina moist by the mucous membranes present in the vagina. But this problem is usually seen in menopausal age, from 45-55 years, when the ovaries produce less estrogen.

 

Vaginal dryness can manifest in many symptoms. Vaginal dryness symptoms include itching, irritation, burning sensation, pain and soreness inside the vagina especially at the vulva.

 

Ayurvedic remedies for vagina dryness

 

According to Ayurveda, if during sex, a woman suppresses her natural urges, it aggravates Vata, causing dryness of the vaginal opening, besides other discomforts. So an imbalance in doshas leads to vagina dryness.

 

Here are some Ayurvedic and herbal remedies to combat vaginal dryness

 

Abhyanga or oil massage is essential as a daily routine. If you have a dominant Vata, you should use sesame oil for a body massage before your bath. For a dominant Pitta, coconut oil helps, and Kapha dominants should use mustard oil for abhyanga. For self-massage, use warm oil and apply on the entire body, from the scalp to the soles of your feet.

 

Drink lots of water: While abhyanga will help you to stay hydrated externally, for your inner hydration, drink at least eight glasses of water daily and eat lots of juicy fruits.

 

Oleation: The use of medicated oils, internally or externally, is called oleation. Self-massage with sesame oil and black salt will pacify Vata dosha and provide natural lubrication.

Fomentation: Tube fomentation (nadi sweda) and bolus fomentation are applied to the genitals for effective results. Fomentation is the process by which the sweat or perspiration is produced in the body by using various methods. Nadi sweda is done by taking steam coming through a hollow tube to the body, especially to the effected parts.

 

Herbal tampons are given to the individual to insert into her vagina. This helps to cure the inflammation, pain, infection and rejuvenates the tissues.

Enema: Enema is a process of using Vata pacifying herbs to calm down the vitiated doshas, which is the main cause of virginal dryness.
