What You Should Know Before Considering Ayurvedic Treatment
Table of Contents
Ayurveda, the ancient science of life, offers a holistic approach to health and wellness by addressing the root cause of diseases rather than just managing symptoms. Whether you are exploring Ayurveda for chronic conditions, lifestyle diseases, or preventive health, understanding how it works, what to expect, and how it compares to conventional medicine can help you make an informed decision (Smith & Sharma, 2019).
At EliteAyurveda, we provide personalized Ayurvedic treatments tailored to each patient’s unique constitution (Prakriti) and health condition, ensuring optimal outcomes through our own potent herbal formulations, diet, and lifestyle modifications (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
Considering Ayurvedic treatment
1. The Fundamental Principles of Ayurveda
Ayurveda is based on three doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha—which govern bodily functions. Any imbalance in these doshas leads to diseases. Ayurvedic treatment aims to restore this balance through:
✔ Aushadha (Herbal Medications) – Personalized, natural, and side-effect-free remedies (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✔ Ahara (Dietary Adjustments) – Food tailored to your dosha type and health needs (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✔ Vihara (Lifestyle Modifications) – Daily routines, sleep hygiene, and exercise (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✔ Achara (Behavioral Practices) – Mental and emotional well-being through meditation and mindfulness (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
Unlike conventional medicine, which often focuses on symptom relief, Ayurveda addresses the root cause of diseases for long-term healing (Smith & Sharma, 2019).
2. How Ayurveda Differs from Allopathy?
| Aspect | Ayurveda | Allopathy |
|---|---|---|
| Approach | Holistic, treats the root cause | Symptomatic relief |
| Medications | Natural, plant-based, no side effects | Synthetic, potential side effects |
| Treatment Plan | Personalized based on dosha imbalance | Standardized treatments |
| Time for Results | Gradual but long-lasting | Quick but temporary relief |
| Preventive Care | Strong focus on prevention & lifestyle | Mainly disease management |
Ayurveda is ideal for chronic conditions, whereas allopathy is more effective for acute emergencies like infections or surgeries (Smith & Sharma, 2019).
3. What Conditions Can Ayurveda Help With?
Ayurveda has shown great success in managing:
✅ Chronic Diseases – Diabetes, thyroid disorders, autoimmune conditions, arthritis (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✅ Digestive Disorders – IBS, gastritis, acid reflux, liver issues (Kumar et al., 2017).
✅ Neurological Disorders – Parkinson’s, migraines, nerve weakness (Patel & Shah, 2016).
✅ Skin Conditions – Hidradenitis Suppurativa, psoriasis, eczema (Reddy, 2015).
✅ Respiratory Disorders – Asthma, chronic sinusitis, bronchitis (Gupta, 2018).
✅ Reproductive Health – PCOS, infertility, menstrual irregularities (Fauser et al., 2012).
✅ Mental Health – Anxiety, depression, sleep disorders (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
Since Ayurveda is highly personalized, the same disease in different people may be treated differently depending on their Prakriti (body type) and Vikriti (current imbalance) (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
4. The Importance of Personalized Herbal Medications
Unlike generic over-the-counter Ayurvedic supplements, EliteAyurveda provides customized formulations based on each individual’s needs. Our proprietary herbal preparations:
✔ Target root causes of disease rather than just symptoms (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).

✔ Are tailored to an individual’s body constitution and doshic balance. (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
5. What to Expect in an Ayurvedic Treatment Plan?
Your journey in Ayurveda involves four key stages:
Step 1: Comprehensive Health Assessment
A detailed consultation with our lead specialist, Dr. Adil Moulanchikkal, to analyze:
✔ Prakriti (your inherent body constitution)

6. Common Myths About Ayurvedic Treatment
| Myth | Reality |
|---|---|
| ❌ Ayurveda is slow | ✅ Healing takes time but provides long-term results without side effects (Smith & Sharma, 2019). |
| ❌ Ayurvedic medicines are just herbs | ✅ They are scientifically formulated for effectiveness (Sharma & Sharma, 2018). |
| ❌ Ayurveda cannot treat chronic conditions | ✅ Ayurveda has successfully reversed diabetes, thyroid issues, and autoimmune diseases (Sharma & Sharma, 2018). |
| ❌ Ayurveda only works if you follow a strict vegetarian diet | ✅ Ayurveda recommends dietary adjustments based on your health but is flexible (Sharma & Sharma, 2018). |
7. How to Choose the Right Ayurvedic Treatment?
✔ Consult an Experienced Specialist – Not all Ayurvedic treatments are the same. Always consult certified experts like Dr. Adil Moulanchikkal (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✔ Avoid Over-the-Counter Herbs – Many mass-produced Ayurvedic supplements lack proper formulation and personalization (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
✔ Ensure Authenticity – Choose clinics like EliteAyurveda, which provide in-house, high-quality formulations tailored to each patient (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
8. What Are the Possible Side Effects?
Ayurvedic treatments, when prescribed by an expert, do not cause harmful side effects. However, self-medicating with generic herbs or improper detox procedures can lead to complications (Sharma & Sharma, 2018).
To avoid issues:
✔ Get a proper diagnosis before starting any treatment.
✔ Follow prescribed dosages of medications.
✔ Stick to recommended diet and lifestyle changes.
