According to Ayurveda, most diseases develop as a result of the combined action of psycho and somatic factors which exists in our life. Thus all issues of health and disease warrant a comprehensive holistic approach to treatment.

Ayurveda, a traditional Indian medical system, provides holistic therapies for a range of medical issues, including mental illness. The goal of Ayurveda's treatments is to restore balance and well-being since it sees mental problems as abnormalities in the mind-body link.

The personalised nature of Ayurvedic mental health care takes into account each patient's particular dosha, imbalances, and symptoms. It incorporates a number of methods, such as herbal remedies, nutritional advice, lifestyle changes, therapeutic massages, meditation, and yoga.

Adaptogenic herbs like ashwagandha and Brahmi, recognised for their relaxing and stress-reducing qualities, may be utilised in Ayurvedic treatments for mental disorders. These herbs support emotional harmony while enhancing cognitive function and mental clarity.

Ayurvedic diet advice includes a healthy, sattvic diet and focuses on balancing the doshas. The implementation of relaxation techniques, the development of a planned daily schedule, and participation in mental health-promoting activities are examples of lifestyle adjustments.

In Ayurveda, therapeutic massages and oil therapies like Abhyanga (whole body massage) and Shirodhara (continuous pouring of warm oil on the forehead) are frequently used to relax the body, ease anxiety, and quiet the mind.

Yoga and meditation are important components of Ayurvedic therapy for mental disorders. They support total mental and emotional balance, encourage mindfulness, lower stress, sharpen concentration, and increase focus. The optimal Ayurvedic treatment method for mental illness should be discussed with a skilled Ayurvedic practitioner who can evaluate your unique condition and make personalised recommendations.
