Hello Readers,
The difference in the principles of Modern medicine and Ayurveda.
Ayurveda stands for the prevention and maintenance of the
Health as well as to treat the disease condition of a person.
And also there is parallel branches like 'vruksha ayurveda' and 'mruga ayurveda' in order to treat
the plants and the animals respectively.
The preventive and maintenance methods of 'ayurveda' coming
under the branch called ‘swasthavrutham’ and treating the disease conditions
under the ‘athura vrutham’
'Swasthavrutham' explains about when to wake up,how to do the
morning ablutions,oil application,exercises,bath,how to behave,how to live in
the community amicably and lead a peaceful life.
The diet and lifestyle
according to the weather changes,precautions to be taken care during different
seasons,how to treat the common ailments due to the influence of the seasonal
changes etc.
Ayurveda says prevention is better than cure.
‘Athuravrutham’ explains the properties of the life
forces,how it influence our body,different symptoms when it aggravates,decreases and how it will be when balanced.
How to treat the various stages of vitiation
of the life forces.
The five fold cleansing methods etc. and also the benefits
of cleansing treatment or ‘panchakarma’ therapy.
In ayurveda not treating the disease but treating the
body,cleansing,rejuvenating and hence improving the immunity of a person.
It is
not the treatment method but a lifestyle.
We have to practice it for life
time,should know the dos and don’ts,different body type etc.
In modern medicine we find out the disease and name it.
And
treating that particular disease condition with chemically derived combinations
which gives fast relief but many cases gives rise to the side effects.
The
modern medicine developed a lot in last few decades as it gives quick results.
In this fast moving life schedule many are forced to depend the modern system of medications.
The after effects neglected usually.
In a cardiac emergency or
in a accident case such acute conditions the modern medicine can be done a lot.
But people turning to ayurveda for the chronic conditions
like Rheumatic problems,skin diseases,asthmatic
conditions,Diabetes,Piles,Kidney
stones,infertility,acidity,migraine,sinus,allergies,gynecological disorders and
many lifestyle problems can be sort out with ayurveda support.
Ayuveda says
live harmony with the nature then the disease is no more.
During the ayurveda consultation the physician studies the
nature of the body type,dominant life fores,imbalanced states etc from the
symptoms.
For analyzing a patient ayurveda using tools like ‘darshana,sparshana
and prashana’ means by seeing the patient,by touch and by asking questions to
the patient.
Here is a brief about the difference in the views of
ayurveda and modern medicine.
