For those of you who don’t know much about the prostate gland, it is a small gland that is only found in the male body. It opens into an area of the body called the urethra; which is the tube that is responsible for carrying urine from the bladder to the genitals.
Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia Treatment from Ayurveda.
In the science of Ayurveda, the prostate gland is located in a bodily region that is governed by Apana vata, which also governs the colon, lower abdomen, the organs used for waste elimination and the reproductive zone
Due to the fact that hat the prostate falls under the governance of the Apana Vata, we find that anything responsible for aggravating the Apana Vata also subjects the prostate to pressure. In the medical field of Ayurveda, we know that our Vata Dosha increases as we age – a phenomenon known as Vata Kala. This too has a contributing effect on Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia.
In Ayurveda treatments for Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia include, balancing the Apana Vata, a series of external Ayurvedic therapies including; Abhyanga, Chakra Basti,
Internal Ayurvedic medications such as Mutrala, a form of diuretics, along with Vatanulomana which regulates the flow of Vata along with certain changes to lifestyle and diet
