PSORIASIS

Ayurvedic texts say that psoriasis arises due to an imbalance of two “doshas,” or areas of energy. Practitioners of Ayurvedic medicine call these the “Vata” and “Kapha.” Vata is responsible for controlling bodily functions and could contribute to the dryness and skin scaling of psoriasis.

Psoriasis can be effectively treated through Panchakarma therapies, which include Ayurvedic treatment methods for the complete detoxification of the body, and successful elimination of harmful toxins from the body fluids.
