Cardio Vascular Diseases
Cardio Vascular Diseases
In Ayurveda, the heart (Hridaya) is the seat of consciousness (Chetana), Ojas (vital essence), and Prana Vayu (life energy). It is also the central organ governing Rasa Dhatu (plasma) and Rakta Dhatu (blood) circulation.
When these fundamental elements become imbalanced due to improper diet, stress, or sedentary habits, the result is a range of cardiovascular and lifestyle disorders.
Ayurveda considers such diseases as Hridroga (heart ailments) and Raktavaha Srotas Vikara (disorders of blood-carrying channels). Management focuses on Balancing Tridosha (Vata, Pitta, Kapha), Strengthening Agni (digestive/metabolic fire), Purifying blood and rejuvenating heart tissues, Reducing Ama (toxins) and stress through Panchakarma and Rasayana therapy. At Dhathri Ayurveda, heart care integrates traditional healing therapies with preventive lifestyle modification for overall circulatory health.
