Introduction:
What is needed to promote Ayurveda so that it can reach its full potential? Before Ayurveda and other methods are accepted globally, they have to face a lot of challenges. These challenges are similar to any other health care systems.
Principles:
Scientists are trying to upgrade the Ayurvedic methods by adding some modern techniques to it. They are doing research on herbal but they are not following all the principles of Ayurveda. The basic principles of Ayurveda are Agni, Tridosha, and Dhatu.
Agni means ‘digestive fire’, Tridosha means ‘three bio-humors’ and Dhatu means ‘tissues’. These three principles lead to the formation of Mala (excretory products) in normal physical method.
Many new diseases are discovered and scientists try to cure the disease by using latest methods, not following the Ayurveda Dubai
principles. When a patient is treated through Ayurvedic medicines, the practitioner follows Samprapti, Shodhana and Shamana.
Samprapti is about ‘pathophysiology’, Shodhana is about ‘purification procedures’ and Shamana deals with ‘medicinal management’. Giving herbs is not the proper solution to cure the patient. The practitioner has to use latest treatment methods to diagnose the disease well.
You better understand by an example:
Nerve conduction and electro myelography is useful to diagnose Mamsa Dhatu (muscular tissue). Shashtika Shali Sweda and Pinda Sweda are considered important tests in Ayurveda for diagnosing a disease. These tests are types of fomentation using red rice cooked in milk.
Adding new techniques:
Swami Vivek Anand was the first one who introduced this ancient method to the west, giving lectures in United States Universities. When Ayurveda reached outside sub-continent, the fundamental principles remains the same but the usage of medicine is different as per the regional requirements.
Adding new techniques to Ayurveda is really a difficult task that needs special attention. While adding new methods to Ayurveda, it must be remembered that the basic fundamentals of Ayurveda will not get affected, otherwise this ancient method will lose its originality.
Since, the last few years, the need to separate traditional medicines and Ayurveda is felt. World Health Organization (WHO) has done efforts but unable to get the desired results. Most people felt that mixing Ayurveda with modern methods is not a proper solution.
Conclusion:
It is need of the hour to encourage Ayurveda Dubai practices by adding new techniques to it. Using traditional methods is the only option for its survival. So, add new techniques so the originality of the Ayurveda will not get affected.
After surgery, most of the surgical specialists suggest physiotherapy to speed up the recovery process. This way the patient’s body is strengthen and heal soon. The weakened tissues are also recovered effectively this way and the use of several medicines and treatments are eliminated.
Most of researchers results points towards the beneficial effectiveness of massage and longer pain relief from different reasons associated with patients. There are different dominant conditions that are affecting human lives while massage therapy offer the possibility of these effects to be of a short term when regular therapies are applied.
Just think of how your lives were going 15 years ago some people especially millennial will think of it as a tough time as they cannot survive without their Iphone now. Lots of things have changed. One major development is in the field of medicine and rehab. 15 years ago we had only those hands on techniques of rubbing and eradicating pain.
