Ayurvedic support for excess body fat, metabolic balance, detoxification, realistic weight reduction, body rhythm correction, and long-term weight maintenance.
Obesity is a condition in which a person has excess body fat. A person who is 20 percent or more above ideal body weight, or has a Body Mass Index of 30 or above, is generally considered obese. Obesity increases the risk of disease, disability, and mortality.
Obesity is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes mellitus, osteoarthritis, sleep apnea, asthma, and nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. These complications make guided weight management important.
Ayurveda treats obesity through a personalized approach after careful analysis of the person’s body constitution, mind constitution, age, level of obesity, associated complaints, metabolism, lifestyle, and overall condition.
At IVAC, weight reduction is not only about losing kilos. The focus is on understanding the body type, restoring natural health, tuning the body with its rhythms, and planning therapies so weight loss happens without wrinkles or sagging of skin.
The IVAC approach to obesity management focuses on eliminating Ama, supporting detoxification, improving metabolism, recommending suitable diet and lifestyle routines, and helping the person maintain the reduced weight in a healthy way.
The treatment begins with the elimination of Ama, or toxins, through a physician-guided Panchakarma detoxification program based on the person’s health condition.
Specific weight loss therapies such as Udwartana and Dhaanyamladhara may be included to support fat reduction, circulation, tissue stimulation, and metabolic activation.
Diet advice is planned according to body type, digestive strength, age, weight goal, associated complaints, and realistic weight reduction needs.
Lifestyle recommendations are customized for the individual’s constitution, nature of work, daily routine, geography, sleep pattern, activity level, and long-term maintenance needs.
Yoga and Pranayama are included to improve body awareness, energy balance, breathing capacity, discipline, flexibility, and sustainable lifestyle correction.
The duration depends on the level of obesity, age, number of kilos to be reduced, associated health complaints, and overall condition. It may vary from 15 days to 1 month.
Since maintenance is critical after weight reduction, IVAC focuses on continued dietary discipline, lifestyle correction, rhythm building, and weight management planning.
Every person’s body type, metabolism, obesity level, age, weight goal, associated complaints, and lifestyle are different. At Indus Valley Ayurvedic Centre, our Ayurvedic doctors assess your condition and suggest a personalized line of care.
