The word Arthritis gets interpreted by people in many ways. For some, its a disease that affects the spinal cord, and for some it affects the knees. For some, it affects neck and for others, its concerned with joints. So what exactly arthritis is? And what does it do to a human body?Arthritis, according to modern science, is just a condition of a human body losing mobility because of stiffness of joints. Its cause? No one has been able to find that out. If someone had found it, they would have researched a solution for this. Well, that explains - there is no cure for this. Hold !! Dont take it for granted. Because there are solutions to so many things what modern science has not known. Arthritis has so many divisions in itself. Arthritis generally refers to a condition where a human body's mobility is reduced. The reason might be many.
Thats just a introduction on Arthritis. For more on that, please refer to the very many articles that a google search will lead you to.
I started writing this with educating people with a well-known medical division in India, Ayurveda. In India it might be very famous. But across the world, a very few people know it. Let me start by giving my own example. I inherited "Ankylosing Spondylitis" ( one of the sub-sets of Arthritis ) from my parents. My dad, mom and my brother had it. I had the first taste of it when I was 17 years old. I was not able to get up after a deep sleep on a iron cot. The cot was so cold as it was just iron. Pain-killers immediately relieved me off my pain and I was all well. This kept creeping-in on me for around 4 years with me taking pain-killers to take control of the situation. After 4 years, my mobility was completely gone as this affected my hip joints. Pain-killers still did their work. But this time, my dad suggested that we consult an ayurveda doctor. And he had strong belief in Kottakkal Arya Vaidya Sala(AVS - http://www.aryavaidyasala.com/ ) which had treated all in my family. We went there and they dint feel the need for me to get admitted as I was quite young. They prescribed medicines without even a single test being carried out. The doctor dint even examine me. He just had a look at the joints. That was his expertice. I continued with the medicines for around 1 year and as the pain started reducing, I slowly started discontinued the medicines. I used to have just one medicines and just for one time in a day. I continued with minor pains and joint stiffness. After 5 years of work in Bangalore, I came to Singapore. The activities that kept me active in Bangalore were totally reduced and the medicines were stopped. Now for the past one month I suffer with a swollen knee joint. I cant bend my leg and I cant walk properly. I went to SGH ( Singapore General Hospital ), where doctors felt that it was strange to have such a swollen joint. That was just medical books talking to me. Well ... Thats another long story.
After feeling totally frustrated, I got hold of this "Malayala Ayurveda clinic" which uses medicines from AVS. I was totally impressed and was asked to undergo a 7 + 7 days treatment. 7 days of massage and 7 days of total rest. They were very sure that this swollen joint would become ok in 1 - 3 months. Yes !! thats the time an ayurveda medicine takes. It takes time but cures gently without any side effects. Am into my 11th day of treatment and I can already feel a lot of improvement. This has given me a lot of confidence that I can be back to my normal activities in a few days.
For those who are in Singapore and suffer from any kind of muscular pain or any twists of joints or any kind of joint stiffness or any other arthritis symptoms, do make a visit to
Malayala Ayurveda Clinic
Perumal Road
Farrer Park MRT station (G exit)
Phone : 62932760
Have one thing in mind, Ayurveda doesnt cure instantly. And you will have to follow strict diet as per the doctor says. And the pain might increase and decrease during the treatment. Wait for a complete month to decide further. I bet, you will note a major difference.
For those who can reach India, AVS is one of the most known hopitals in Kerala ( a state in India ). Other famous hospitals include
Thaikaatu moos ( http://www.etmoushadhasala.com/web/nursinghome.htm )
AVP ( http://www.avpayurveda.com/ - a split from AVS )
Am sure I will revisit this space to register my victory over my dearest enemy "Spondylitis".
================================================
After more than 10 years, I write here again, as I got 3 emails from this post, asking for references.
I realaized Spondylitis is just a condition and not curable, but avoidable with good food habits and regular exercise. I play badminton now without any pains.
Back pains are regular, but then, not to the extent that it hurts anymore.
All because of this http://www.aryavaidyasala.com/ . I underwent treatment for 38 days and took rest for 40 days - a break of 72 days from work. But then, if I were to take the regular pain killers and steroids, I would have been greatly dependent on those until now.

Hi just me,
I am also suffering from ankylosing spondylitis for past 8 years. My alopathic treatment is not working out nicely. I am looking for alternative treatments. Can you brief about the treatment you have received - in terms of - Ayurvedic procedure names, medicine names, period of recovery, cost of treatment etc. My hips were damaged badly and my doctors were suggesting for hip replacement surgery. Your help will be much appreciated.
