Types of Child Health Issues Treated at Jiva
At Jiva Ayurveda, we understand that every child is different. That’s why our Ayurvedic treatments are personalised to your child’s specific health needs. Whether it's a recurring health issue or a condition affecting their growth and behaviour, Jiva offers natural, safe, and effective solutions by addressing the root cause of the problem.
Here are some of the common child health problems we treat at Jiva:
1. Ayurvedic Treatment for Childhood Asthma
Is your child having a hard time with a lot of coughing, shortness of breath, or wheezing? This could mean that your child has asthma, which makes the airways sensitive and inflamed. This makes it hard to breathe and can affect how much energy your child has during playtime, sleep, and otherwise.
Ayurveda says that asthma in kids is caused by an imbalance in Kapha and Vata dosha, as well as weak digestive fire (Agni) that leads to toxin (Ama) build up. At Jiva, our doctors treat asthma naturally by using a mix of herbal medicines, breathing exercises, and a diet that boosts the immune system. They also work to lower the frequency of asthma attacks over time.
2. Ayurvedic Treatment for Nighttime Bedwetting (Nocturnal Enuresis)
A lot of kids still wet the bed even after they should be able to stay dry. This isn't always a problem with behaviour; it could be caused by an imbalance in the nervous system or emotional stress.
Ayurveda says that bed-wetting is mostly caused by an aggravated Vata dosha, which makes it hard to control the bladder. Jiva's Ayurvedic treatment uses herbs like Ashwagandha, Brahmi, and Shankhpushpi to calm the nervous system, strengthen the muscles in the bladder, and make the mind more calm.
3. Ayurvedic Treatment for ADHD, or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder
Your child may have ADHD if they have trouble focusing, are too hyperactive, or can't sit still or follow directions. It has an effect on memory, learning, and emotional balance.
Ayurveda says that ADHD is caused by an imbalance of high Vata and Pitta in the brain, which makes it hard to pay attention, stay calm, and remember things. We help kids with ADHD at Jiva by giving them herbs that calm and nourish them, like Brahmi, Shankhpushpi, Ashwagandha, and Shatavari. We also prescribe them a sattvic diet and help them relax with meditation and yoga that is good for kids.
4. Ayurvedic Treatment for Whooping Cough or Kali Khansi
Children with whooping cough have strong coughing fits followed by a "whooping" sound when they breathe in. This is a serious illness. It can be very tiring for your child and might even make them throw up or have trouble sleeping.
Ayurveda says that whooping cough is caused by too much Kapha and Vata, as well as the buildup of toxins. We use herbal medicines that have been used for a long time, like Sitopaladi churna, honey, turmeric, and warm herbal teas, to calm the throat, stop coughing, and make breathing easier. We also use external treatments like Nasya and warm oil chest massage.
At Jiva Ayurveda, we also look at other related issues such as weak digestion, poor weight gain, low immunity, frequent infections, sleep problems, and emotional disturbances in children. Our doctors provide personalised plans with herbs, diet, daily routine, and therapies like Abhyanga (oil massage) and Swarnaprashana (immunity drops) to ensure your child grows up strong, healthy, and happy.
What Ayurveda Says About Child Health Issues
Ayurveda says that children are naturally full of Kapha energy, which gives them strength, stability, and immunity. But their bodies and minds are still growing, which makes them more sensitive and more likely to be affected by imbalances.
Ayurveda says that the main reason your child gets sick a lot, doesn't grow properly, or has emotional or behavioural problems is because their doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) are out of balance, their digestion is weak, and toxins are building up in their body.
Ayurveda sees child health problems like this:
- Vata Imbalance causes problems like being too active, not being able to focus, having trouble sleeping, constipation, and wetting the bed.
- An imbalance in Pitta can make you angry, irritable, have skin rashes, and have trouble digesting food.
- When your Kapha is out of balance, you may feel tired, get colds often, have asthma, a slow metabolism, and gain weight.
When these doshas stay out of balance for a long time, they can affect the body's internal systems:
- Ama (toxins): Toxins that block your child's natural energy and immunity are created when they don't digest food well.
- Blocked Srotas (body channels): Toxins and an imbalance in dosha can block the channels that carry nutrients, which can cause slow growth, trouble concentrating, or trouble breathing.
Toxins and imbalances can also make important tissues like Rasa (plasma), Rakta (blood), and Majja (nerves) weaker, which can affect both the body and the mind.
At Jiva Ayurveda, we don’t just give medicines to reduce symptoms. Our experts focus on finding the root cause of your child’s problem, whether it’s weak digestion, stress, poor immunity, or lifestyle habits.
Your child gets a fully personalised treatment plan that includes herbal medicines, immunity-boosting herbs, dietary advice, and natural therapies that heal them from the inside out. This helps build strong immunity, better focus, and a happier, healthier future.
Benefits of Ayurvedic Treatment for Child Health Issues
Ayurvedic care for your child is a natural, safe, and long-term solution, not just a quick fix. We at Jiva Ayurveda want to heal your child from within by fixing the problem at its source.
Here are some important reasons why Ayurvedic treatment is good for kids with health problems:
1. Healing at the root cause
Ayurveda doesn't just treat symptoms like cough, cold, or hyperactivity; it also finds the root cause. This makes sure that the relief lasts a long time and lowers the chances that the problem will come back again in the future.
2. Safe and gentle on the body
Ayurvedic medicines are made from natural herbs and other natural things. They don't have any harsh chemicals in them, so they are completely safe for your child's growing body. You can use these treatments for a longer time without getting any unwanted side effects.
3. A stronger immune system
Ayurvedic care on a regular basis helps your child's natural immunity get better. This means that you will get sick less often, recover from illnesses faster, and be able to deal with seasonal problems better.
4. Better metabolism and digestion
To grow up healthy, you need to have good digestion. Ayurveda boosts the digestive fire (Agni), which helps your child get more nutrients, grow properly, and stay active all day.
5. Treatment that is personalised for each child
Every child is different. At Jiva, your child will get a personalised treatment plan based on their body type (Prakriti), health history, and current symptoms. This makes sure that the healing is more accurate and effective.
Ayurvedic Treatment and Therapies Used
At Jiva Ayurveda, your child gets a complete healing experience that includes natural herbs, personalised diet plans, and gentle therapies. The goal is not just to treat one symptom, but to support your child’s full growth, physically, mentally, and emotionally.
Common Ayurvedic Herbs for Child Health
Jiva’s expert Ayurvedic doctors use safe and effective herbs that help in building strength, boosting immunity, and improving digestion and focus. Here are some of the main herbs used in child health treatments:
- Ashwagandha: Makes you feel stronger, helps you sleep better, and lowers your child’s stress.
- Brahmi: A natural brain tonic that helps you remember things, stay focused, and learn new things better.
- Shatavari: Helps with digestion, boosts the immune system, and calms hyperactive kids.
- Giloy (Guduchi): Strengthens the immune system and protects against infections.
- Amla (Amalaki): Amla is high in vitamin C and good for digestion, detoxification, and breathing issues.
- Bala: Strengthens muscles and bones and makes you stronger physically.
- Liquorice: Helps with coughs and sore throats, and helps their lungs work better.
- Fennel Seeds: Help with digestion and ease gas in young children.
Our doctors often prescribe these herbs to kids in forms that are easy for them to eat, like with honey, ghee, or warm milk, or in herbal jams like Chyawanprash.
External Ayurvedic Treatments and Therapies
Jiva also has gentle Ayurvedic treatments that are great for kids:
- Abhyanga (Massage with Oil): Massaging your body every day with warm herbal oil improves blood flow, helps muscles grow, strengthens the immune system, and calms the nervous system. It also makes it easier for your child to sleep.
- Nasya: This treatment uses herbal oils or ghee in the nose to open up blocked sinuses, lower allergies, and make breathing easier. It helps kids who get a lot of coughs, colds, and asthma.
- Swarnaprashana: A strong Ayurvedic immunity booster that is made with herbs, honey, and gold ash. It is given on certain days (Pushya Nakshatra) to boost memory, strength, immunity, and intelligence.
At Jiva, every treatment plan is made specially for your child. First, our doctors figure out your child's Prakriti (body type), age, current health, and the real reason for the problem. We then make a treatment plan that fits your child's needs and makes them feel comfortable.
