Abstract

Sandhigat Vata, characterized by the degeneration of joints and predominantly associated with pain and reduced mobility, mirrors osteoarthritis (OA) in modern medicine. This condition is increasingly prevalent in aging populations worldwide. Ayurveda offers a holistic approach to managing Sandhigat Vata, focusing on balancing the Vata Dosha through lifestyle, diet, herbal remedies, and Panchakarma therapies. This article aims to explore the Ayurvedic understanding of Sandhigat Vata, its pathogenesis, diagnostic criteria, and comprehensive treatment modalities, integrating traditional insights with contemporary research findings.
