About Dr. Abrol

Knee pain - discomfort, soreness, swelling, or stiffness with reduced movement in one or both knees - is one of the most common joint problems affecting people of all ages. It can begin as mild discomfort and gradually develop into persistent pain that interferes with climbing stairs, bending, or sitting comfortably.

In Ayurveda, knee pain is referred to as 'Sandhivata' - from 'Sandhi' (joint) and 'Vata', the dosha responsible for movement and nerve function in the body. Knee pain is mainly linked to a Vata imbalance, which controls joint motion and lubrication. Imbalance leads to joint dryness, stiffness, and pain, often worsened by stress, irregular routines, unhealthy food, and ageing, alongside the buildup of Ama (digestive toxins).

Our Treatment Approach

How We Treat Knee Pain

Janu Basti

Warm medicated oil is gently held over the knee joint, improving joint lubrication, reducing stiffness, and easing pain.

Abhyanga & Panchakarma Detox

A therapeutic oil massage that improves circulation, nourishes the joints, and balances aggravated Vata dosha; Panchakarma detox is recommended where toxin (Ama) buildup is present.

Upnaha Swed & Pichu

Warm herbal poultices relieve swelling, pain, and relax surrounding muscles; cotton pads soaked in medicated oil (Pichu) soothe and strengthen joint tissues.

Herbal Medicines & Lepanam

Ayurvedic herbal formulations strengthen bones and joints and support digestion, while herbal paste application (Lepanam) reduces inflammation and swelling.

Diet

Warm, freshly prepared meals, green vegetables, whole grains, light proteins, turmeric, ginger, and garlic; avoiding processed, fried, cold, and carbonated foods.
