Cardiac Disease Reversal – (Hridya)

Back

Duration: 21-42 days

Ayurveda Panchakarma therapies & Iyengar Medical Yoga have proved to be very beneficial in Cardiac Disease Reversal. Panchakarma therapies aid in decreasing the cholesterol and improves the functioning of the heart whereas Iyengar medical Yoga improves the organ tone and increases the blood circulation. Diet also plays very important role in Cardiac Disease Reversal.

Cardiovascular problems have been dealt with at length in Ayurveda, which describes ‘Hridaya’ (heart) as a body organ governing emotions and circulating blood to keep a person alive and healthy.

Cardiac problems arise mainly due to improper diet and a stressful lifestyle. These can lead to the thickening of arteries (Dhamani praticaya) or hardening of arteries (Dhamani kathinaya) resulting in number of cardiovascular diseases like coronary artery diseases and ischemic heart disease which in turn can cause symptoms such as:

  • Chest pain
  • Chest tightness

  • Chest discomfort
  • Angina
  • Shortness of breath
  • Pain in the neck, jaw, throat, upper abdomen or back
  • Palpitations
  • Fainting

While heart disease has many components to it, its primary feature is a physical deterioration of the cardiovascular vessel walls. This can include clogging of the vessels with cholesterol and plaque, damaged areas due to increased pressure, and loss of vessel wall thickness.

The multi-modality treatment program at KARE – Ayurveda and Yoga Retreat includes Ayurvedic therapies, Iyengar yoga and freshly cooked vegetarian food. Our approach to heart disease is to identify foundational imbalances that give rise to cardiovascular disease. Ayurveda understands arterial plague to be toxic matter that builds up because the body is not able to get rid of it effectively.

Our three pronged treatment methodology helps to remove impurities and blockages, strengthen digestion, improve metabolism, and restore the body’s natural abilities to detoxify and heal.
