Can surgery be avoided? Clinical evaluation first.Ayurvedic root-cause view
Vata dosha aggravation localized in the joints (Sandhigata Vata), leading to cartilage degeneration, synovial fluid depletion, and increased friction within the joint capsule.
Conventional vs Ayurvedic comparison
Conventional care often relies heavily on painkillers, steroid injections, or eventual joint replacement surgery. Ayurveda focuses on naturally reducing inflammation, regenerating lubricating fluids (Shleshaka Kapha), and strengthening the surrounding musculoskeletal structure for long-term relief.

Clinical note
We prioritize measurable symptom reduction and function recovery before considering invasive options.
Is Janu Basti painful?
No. Warm medicated oil is pooled over the knee inside a dough ring; it feels deeply soothing, and a session lasts about 45 minutes.
What diet supports joint recovery?
Warm, Vata-pacifying food with adequate protein, while dry, cold, and raw items are limited during the healing phase.
Do I need an MRI before starting?
Existing X-rays and MRI are reviewed at the first visit. Fresh imaging is advised only when the findings would genuinely change the plan.
