Knees are the unsung heroes of our everyday mobility. Whether you’re walking, climbing stairs, or chasing your dreams—your knees are silently bearing the load, quite literally. Did you know your knees take up to 5 times your body weight when you’re running? That’s a lot of pressure on a joint we often overlook—until pain slows us down.
At Dr. Jayesh’s Swastik Ayurveda, we specialize in restoring strength, flexibility, and confidence in your knees—naturally, effectively, and without side effects.
Why Strong Knees Matter
Healthy knees mean more than pain-free movement. They are foundational to:
- Maintaining proper posture and balance
- Supporting physical activity and fitness
- Avoiding future complications like osteoarthritis
- Living independently as you age
Unfortunately, modern lifestyle, injuries, or age-related degeneration can make the knees vulnerable. The result? Pain, swelling, stiffness, and limited movement that affect your quality of life.
Ayurveda – An Ancient Solution for a Modern Problem
Ayurveda sees the body as a connected whole. Knee pain is not just about the joint—it can be due to imbalances in Vata, poor digestion (Ama accumulation), or lack of Ojas (vital energy). At Swastik Ayurveda, we follow a holistic, individualized treatment approach to heal your knees from within.
Our treatment protocols include:
- Abhyanga (Herbal Oil Therapy) – Stimulates circulation, reduces stiffness, and nourishes joint tissues.
- Janu Basti – A unique procedure where warm medicated oil is pooled over the knee joint in a herbal dough well. This deeply lubricates and rejuvenates the joint.
- Lepam & Herbal Poultices – External applications that reduce inflammation and improve mobility.
- Panchakarma Detox – Eliminates toxins from the system, balancing the doshas and accelerating healing.
- Rasayana Chikitsa (Rejuvenation Therapy) – Improves cartilage strength and overall musculoskeletal health.
When Should You Seek Help?
- Persistent knee pain that worsens with activity
- Morning stiffness or difficulty in squatting/climbing stairs
- Swelling around the knee joint
- Cracking or locking sensations in the knee
Don’t ignore the early signs. Early intervention can reverse or slow down joint degeneration and Ayurveda offers time-tested tools to do just that.
