In Ayurveda, exacerbated Vata is thought to be a primary cause of joint discomfort. Certain detox therapies, such as Basti and Pinda Sweda, are reported to alleviate joint discomfort and relieve Vata. Certain Ayurvedic medicines are essential for maintaining joint integrity and nourishing the bone structure. Some of the most common reasons of joint discomfort are inflammation, degenerative joint disease, and injury. Prescription anti-inflammatories and pain medicines, while effective, can have serious negative effects. Shallaki is one of the most effective treatments for knee pain because it slows cartilage degeneration.
