Ayur Palana Ayurveda Hospital
Ayur Palana Ayurveda Hospital in Kerala offers a wide range of authentic Ayurvedic treatments rooted in centuries-old traditions. Combining classical therapies, modern diagnostic support, and highly trained Ayurvedic physicians, the hospital addresses chronic and lifestyle-related conditions holistically. Below is an in-depth look at the treatments offered.
Arthritis & Joint Care
Ayur Palana offers comprehensive arthritis treatment rooted in Ayurveda’s understanding of Vata imbalance as the primary cause of joint degeneration and inflammation. Therapies include Abhyanga (medicated oil massage) to improve circulation, Swedana (herbal steam) to reduce stiffness, and Panchakarma detoxification to remove accumulated toxins from joints. Specialized medicated oils like Mahanarayana Thailam and Kottamchukkadi Thailam are applied to nourish tissues and strengthen bones. The diet is tailored to reduce inflammation and support digestion, which is key in preventing Ama (toxins) build-up.
Psoriasis & Skin Disorders
Psoriasis, an autoimmune skin condition, is managed at Ayur Palana using blood-purifying therapies such as Virechana (purgation) and Raktamokshana (bloodletting, or its modern mild equivalents). Herbal formulations like Gandhak Rasayan and Neem-based medicines help detoxify and cool the body. External treatments such as Takradhara (pouring medicated buttermilk) and medicated pastes reduce scaling, itching, and inflammation. The approach focuses not only on the skin but also on balancing Pitta and improving liver function, as Ayurveda sees psoriasis as a systemic imbalance.
Stroke Rehabilitation
Post-stroke recovery in Ayurveda involves restoring nervous system function, muscle strength, and mobility. Treatments include Pizhichil (oil bath therapy) to enhance circulation, Njavarakizhi (medicated rice bolus massage) to strengthen muscles, and Nasya (nasal therapy) to improve brain health. Panchakarma therapies detoxify and rejuvenate the nervous system. Patients undergo physiotherapy integrated with Ayurvedic therapies to maximize recovery speed and quality of life.
Menstrual Disorders & Infertility
Ayur Palana treats menstrual irregularities, PCOS, and infertility by addressing hormonal imbalances, improving reproductive tissue health (Shukra Dhatu), and detoxifying the body. Therapies like Uttar Basti (medicated enema into the uterus), Shirodhara for stress reduction, and herbal formulations such as Ashokarishta are used. Lifestyle and dietary modifications are recommended to promote fertility naturally.
Stress Management & De-addiction
Chronic stress and addictions are handled through therapies that calm the mind and detoxify the body. Shirodhara (pouring warm medicated oil over the forehead) induces deep relaxation, while Abhyanga and Swedana relieve muscular tension. Herbal tonics like Brahmi and Ashwagandha restore mental clarity. For de-addiction, Panchakarma helps remove toxins from prolonged substance abuse.
Rejuvenation & Postnatal Care
Rejuvenation (Rasayana Chikitsa) focuses on restoring vitality, slowing aging, and improving immunity. Therapies include oil massages, medicated steam baths, and internal herbal preparations. Postnatal care helps new mothers recover strength, balance hormones, and enhance lactation using special diets and therapies like Abhyanga and Njavarakizhi.
Obesity & Diabetes Management
Weight management is approached through Udvartana (herbal powder massage) to break down fat deposits, Swedana to remove toxins, and dietary corrections to balance Kapha. Diabetes is managed with herbal formulations like Nishakatakadi Kashayam, lifestyle modifications, and Panchakarma to improve pancreatic function and metabolism.
Hair Fall, Headache, Insomnia, Thyroid Disorders
Hair fall is treated with scalp massages using Bhringraj oil, Nasya therapy, and stress reduction techniques. Chronic headaches are relieved through Shirodhara, Nasya, and diet corrections. Insomnia is managed with medicated milk, Shiro Abhyanga, and calming herbs. Thyroid disorders are addressed through detox, metabolism-boosting herbs, and lifestyle regulation.
Neurological Conditions like Parkinsonism
Parkinsonism is treated with therapies that improve neuromuscular coordination and reduce tremors. Kashayadhara (herbal decoction pouring), Abhyanga, and medicated enema (Basti) nourish the nervous system. Dietary guidance focuses on Vata balance.
Proctological Conditions
Hemorrhoids, fistula, fissure, varicose veins, and ulcers are treated with Ksharasutra therapy (a medicated thread procedure), herbal ointments, Sitz baths, and internal medicines that heal tissues and prevent recurrence. Dietary changes prevent constipation, the main cause of such disorders.
