About the Conference

Ayurveda views psoriasis as a chronic condition (Kushtha or Kithibha) resulting from an imbalance of the bodily energies (doshas), primarily Vata and Kapha, and the accumulation of toxins (Ama) in the blood and tissues. Treatment focuses on a holistic approach to detoxify the body, restore internal balance, and manage symptoms using dietary modifications, herbal remedies, detoxification therapies, and lifestyle changes.
