Why Ayurvedic Medicines don't work?
from The Ayurveda Channel · host Dr. Kanika Verma
Learn about the most imp. step of Ayurvedic treatment - NIDAN PARIVARJANAM, eliminating the cause of disease--Like wrong food, wrong lifestyle to the wrong mental state. Namaste, Do you know that preventing the cause is the first, fundamental, and indispensable Ayurvedic line of treatment; and not medicines? Without removal of the causal factors, even the best Ayurvedic medicines will give no better results than sugar pills. In my early practice, I never saw any significant and long term benefit of ayurvedic treatment, just because I did not stress on Nidan parivarjanam. However, now I know that this single element is a complete treatment in itself. In this video, I am sharing my Shishya sutra (learning as a student) about the importance of Nidan Parivarjanam. More about me I am Kanika Verma, an Ayurved physician(BAMS, MMS, PGDHHM, PGDPC, PGDVA). Early in my practice, I realized that food and lifestyle changes can have better effects than medicines. Later, I learned that the mind is the cause and cure of almost all disorders. This led me to study modern psychotherapy, esp effects of mindfulness, and meditation on the body. My specialty is Ritucharya consultation ( Ayurvedic Preventive seasonal therapy) and Satvavjaya ( Ayurvedic mental health management). I am also a qualified psychotherapist and Vedic astrologer.
