psoriasis
Overview
Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin condition that speeds up the life cycle of skin cells, causing them to build up and form dry, scaly, and itchy patches. These patches commonly appear on the scalp, elbows, knees, and lower back. Flare-ups can be triggered by stress, climate changes, skin injuries, or infections. While psoriasis isn’t curable, its symptoms can be managed with proper skincare, medical treatments, Ayurvedic remedies, and healthy lifestyle choices.

Rejuvenation in Ayurveda – Rasayana Chikitsa & Panchakarma
In Ayurveda, Rejuvenation is known as Rasayana Chikitsa – one of the eight branches of classical Ayurveda. It is deeply connected with Panchakarma, the detoxification process. Together, they form a powerful combination to cleanse, restore, and revitalize the body and mind.
Herbal Remedies
Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera): Adaptogen that helps reduce stress, which can trigger psoriasis flare-ups. Boosts energy, improves sleep, and supports immune function and hormone balance, helping manage psoriasis symptoms. Shatavari (Asparagus racemosus): Rejuvenating herb for overall health, especially for women. Supports hormonal balance and digestion, aiding in detoxification and reducing internal inflammation linked to psoriasis. Amla (Indian Gooseberry): Rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants. Strengthens immunity, supports healthy skin, and promotes liver function, all of which help reduce psoriasis flare-ups and support healing. Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri): Known for its calming and anti-anxiety effects, Brahmi rejuvenates the mind, enhances concentration, and helps reduce stress, which plays a major role in controlling psoriasis outbreaks.
Diet and Lifestyle Modifications
Sattvic Foods: Sattvic foods are pure and nourishing, including fresh fruits, vegetables, whole grains, nuts, milk, and ghee. These help reduce inflammation and support the body’s detox process, which is essential for managing Psoriasis. Rasayana Foods: Amla (Indian Gooseberry) is rich in Vitamin C and antioxidants, helping strengthen immunity, improve skin health, and support liver detoxification — all important for reducing psoriasis symptoms.
Lifestyle Practices
In Ayurveda, lifestyle practices for rejuvenation, known as Rasayana Vihara, are just as essential as herbal or dietary methods. These practices are designed to restore balance, promote longevity, and enhance both mental and physical vitality. Ayurveda emphasizes that a harmonious lifestyle, aligned with nature and your unique constitution (Prakriti), is the foundation for true rejuvenation.

Prevention
While Panchakarma is widely recognized for treating chronic conditions and cleansing the body, one of its most important roles in Ayurveda is the prevention of diseases like Psoriasis. Regular Panchakarma therapies help strengthen the body’s natural defense system by enhancing Ojas, which is the essence of immunity and vitality. A strong immune system reduces the chances of autoimmune flare-ups, which are at the root of psoriasis. Panchakarma also focuses on restoring balance to the Doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) even before symptoms of disease appear, preventing imbalances that can trigger skin conditions. Maintaining a healthy and active Agni (digestive fire) is another core goal, as weak digestion allows toxins (Ama) to accumulate in the body — a major factor in psoriasis outbreaks. Lastly, Panchakarma promotes a deep mental and emotional reset, helping reduce stress, which is a well-known trigger for psoriasis flare-ups. A calm and balanced mind supports long-term skin health and overall well-being.

- Mental and Emotional Reset
Diagnosis
In Ayurveda, diagnosis before starting Panchakarma is a crucial step to ensure the therapy is both safe and effective. The process begins with assessing the individual's body constitution (Prakriti), their current dosha imbalance (Vikriti), digestive strength (Agni), and the presence of accumulated toxins (Ama). Understanding these factors allows the practitioner to select the most appropriate treatments tailored to the person's unique health needs. An Ayurvedic practitioner also performs pulse diagnosis (Nadi Pariksha), tongue examination, and reviews the individual’s full health history to gain deeper insights into their physical and emotional state. This thorough evaluation helps to pinpoint which Doshas are aggravated and ensures that the Panchakarma plan will restore balance gently and effectively. Personalized diagnosis is the foundation for achieving long-lasting results and promoting complete rejuvenation.
