Arrhythmia is a heart condition in which a person experiences irregular heartbeat. These heart rhythm problems occur when the electric signals that co-ordinate with the heart beats do not work properly. The faulty signals either cause the heart to beat too fast (tachycardia) or to beat too slow (bradycardia) or completely irregular. Symptoms of this condition include: chest pain, shortness of breath, fluttering in chest, sweating, anxiety, fatigue, etc. The causes of arrhythmia are- heart attack, blocked arteries, diabetes, high blood pressure, hyperthyroidism, hypothyroidism, sleep apnea, drug abuse, etc.
Arrhythmia is a condition that is categorized under hridroga of ayurvedic literature. It causes due to vitiation of doshas:
Thus, imbalance in every dosha causes different pulses. Further, when there is vitiation of doshas, the ama is accumulated in the body leading to further complications.
Thus, while treating arrhythmia in ayurveda, it is important to pacify the effects of doshas, balance them and eliminate the accumulated toxins in the body. This is done by panchakarma procedures that help in detoxifying the body. It is also accompanied by Shirodhara that helps in restoring the normal pulses and electric signals that co-ordinate with heart beats. The entire procedure has some association with herbs like Arjuna, shankhapushpi, brahmi, Choti elaichi, pipal pvak, dalchini, etc. that have Cardiology-protective properties and help strengthen the heart muscles. This line of treatment helps in reversal of the condition in a natural and holistic way.

“The ayurvedic approach of disease looks for the root cause and not merely the symptoms. The basic principles of Ayurveda consider an individual human a specific identity and hence his treatment giving importance to the treatment of the patient rather than the treatment of the disease.”
“Since Ayurveda focuses on the root-cause of the disease, it effectively reduces the risk of severe health complications arising out of the untreated underlying cause. Patients who complete their Ayurveda treatment have a reduced risk of health complications later.”
"Heal your body naturally with 5000-year-old knowledge of Ayurveda and Modern Science. From its authenticity, structured approach and personalisation play a very important role in complementing the effect of medicines as well as sustaining the benefit of treatment after the medicines have ended."
