We at Jiva Ayurveda know that everyone's digestion is different, and so should be your treatment. Ayurveda doesn't just deal with symptoms like gas or acidity. It focuses on fixing the root cause, which could be your bad eating habits, stress, or an imbalance in the energies in your body (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). Your health as a whole gets better when your digestion is good.
Ayurvedic treatment helps you get back to normal, naturally improves your digestion, and lets you enjoy food without worry. Good digestion is your key to your better energy, mood, and long-term health.
Types of Digestive Problems Treated at Jiva
At Jiva Ayurveda, we treat a wide range of digestive problems using personalised Ayurvedic care. Whether you’re struggling with daily acidity or long-term issues like colitis or liver problems, Ayurveda can help you heal naturally. Here are some of the digestive issues we treat, so you can better understand what’s going on inside your body:
1. Acid Reflux
Do you feel a burning sensation in your chest or throat after eating? That’s acid reflux. It happens when excess stomach acid flows back up into your food pipe. Ayurveda treats this by calming the Pitta dosha and strengthening your Agni (digestive fire).
2. Anemia
When your blood doesn’t have enough healthy red cells, you feel weak and tired. This is anemia. In Ayurveda, it’s called Pandu Roga. It’s treated by improving iron absorption and correcting Pitta and Kapha imbalances.
3. Anorexia
If you’ve lost interest in food or don’t feel hungry at all, it could be anorexia. In Ayurveda, this is called Aruchi and is caused by poor digestion and mental stress. Herbal remedies help restore appetite and improve digestion.
4. Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
Always feeling tired even after sleeping well? You might be dealing with chronic fatigue. Ayurveda treats this by removing Ama (toxins), improving digestion, and boosting your body’s natural strength.
5. Gastritis
Gastritis is when the lining of your stomach becomes inflamed. It causes pain, burning, and sometimes vomiting. Ayurveda balances Pitta and soothes the stomach lining using herbs and dietary changes.
6. Colitis
This is a condition where the colon (large intestine) gets inflamed, causing pain, cramps, and frequent loose motions. Ayurveda treats colitis by healing the gut lining and balancing Pitta and Kapha.
7. Crohn’s Disease
Crohn’s is a severe digestive condition with symptoms like diarrhoea, pain, and weight loss. It’s similar to colitis but can affect any part of the digestive tract. Ayurveda focuses on strengthening immunity and reducing gut inflammation.
8. Weakness and Fatigue
Feeling low on energy every day, especially after meals? Poor digestion could be the reason. Ayurveda improves nutrient absorption so your body can actually use the food you eat and overcome weakness and fatigue.
9. Flatulence
Too much gas in your stomach can cause discomfort, bloating, and even chest tightness. Ayurveda reduces Vata dosha and improves digestion to stop excess gas from forming.
10. Gallstones
Gallstones form when bile (a digestive fluid) hardens. Ayurveda helps dissolve small stones and corrects liver and gallbladder function naturally.
11. Jaundice
Jaundice turns your skin and eyes yellow due to liver problems. Ayurveda treats it by supporting liver detox and balancing Pitta dosha.
12. Liver Cirrhosis
Cirrhosis is a chronic liver disease where healthy liver tissue gets replaced with scar tissue. Ayurveda helps slow its progress by strengthening the liver and supporting digestion.
13. Sickle Cell Anaemia
Sickle Cell Anaemia is a genetic condition where red blood cells are shaped abnormally. Ayurveda helps manage fatigue and improves immunity and digestion to reduce complications.
14. Piles and Fissure
Pain or bleeding during bowel movements? This could be piles or fissures. Ayurveda uses herbs, oils, and dietary changes to reduce pain, swelling, and promote healing.
15. Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS)
If you often have loose motions one day and constipation the next, it could be IBS. Ayurveda calls this Grahani and treats it by regulating Agni and calming stress.
16. Hyperacidity
Too much acid in your stomach leads to burning, burping, and discomfort. Ayurveda uses cooling herbs and teaches proper food timing to keep hyperacidity in control.
17. Constipation
Passing hard or dry stools due to constipation? Ayurveda helps to soften the stool and regulates Vata dosha to ensure regular, easy bowel movements.
18. Ulcerative Colitis
Ulcerative Colitis is a long-term inflammation of the colon that leads to bloody stools and weakness. Ayurvedic herbs soothe inflammation and strengthen the colon.
19. Coeliac Disease
Coeliac Disease is a condition where the body reacts badly to gluten (a protein found in wheat). Ayurveda helps by healing the intestines and balancing immunity.
20. Peptic Ulcer
Peptic Ulcers are painful sores in the stomach lining. Ayurveda uses herbs to protect the lining and reduce Pitta dosha.
21. Tapeworm
Tapeworms are parasites that grow in your intestines and steal your nutrition. Ayurveda uses natural deworming herbs to clean the gut and boost strength.
22. Typhoid
A bacterial infection that causes fever and digestive distress. Ayurveda supports typhoid recovery by improving digestion, energy, and immunity.
23. Diarrhoea
Frequent loose motions are a sign that your digestion is out of balance. Ayurveda treats the root cause to stop diarrhoea naturally and restore strength.
24. Diverticulitis
In diverticulitis, small pouches form in your intestines and become inflamed. Ayurveda reduces inflammation and improves digestion to prevent flare-ups.
25. Pinworms
Pinworms are tiny worms that cause itching and irritation near the anus, especially at night. Ayurveda uses safe herbal formulations to remove them.
26. Cholera
A severe infection causing watery diarrhoea and dehydration. Ayurveda manages cholera symptoms with proper hydration and herbal support.
27. Emphysema
While emphysema mainly affects the lungs, poor digestion can worsen it. Ayurveda improves digestion and strengthens overall immunity.
28. Food Poisoning
Eating contaminated food causes vomiting, diarrhoea, and cramps (Food Poisoning). Ayurveda removes toxins and quickly brings the stomach back to balance.
29. Atherosclerosis
Though a heart-related disease, atherosclerosis is also linked with poor digestion and metabolism. Ayurveda improves fat metabolism and cleanses the blood channels.
30. Thalassemia
Thalassemia is a blood disorder that leads to low hemoglobin. Ayurveda helps manage fatigue and improves digestion to support overall health.
31. High Triglycerides
High Triglycerides basically means excess fat in your blood, often caused by poor digestion and lifestyle. Ayurveda improves metabolism and supports healthy fat breakdown.
32. Gastroenteritis
Gastroenteritis is inflammation of the stomach and intestines, which is also called stomach flu. Ayurveda helps reduce inflammation, stop diarrhoea, and restore gut strength.
What Ayurveda Says About Digestive Problems
Ayurveda says that your digestion is the most important part of your health. When your stomach and intestines aren't working right, it can affect everything in your body, from your energy levels to your skin and even your mood. Ayurveda places a lot of importance on having a strong and balanced digestive system for this reason.
What does Agni (Digestive Fire) do?
Ayurveda says that all problems with digestion start when Agni, your body's digestive fire, is out of balance. Food doesn't digest well if Agni is too weak (Manda Agni). It causes acidity and burning if it is too strong (Tikshna Agni). And if it keeps changing (Vishama Agni), you might feel fine one day and bad the next.
When your digestion is bad, it makes Ama, a sticky, poisonous waste that builds up in your gut and blocks your body's natural channels (Srotas). This Ama then spreads and causes problems in other systems, such as tiredness, joint pain, or even skin problems.
Imbalance of Doshas
There is a different dosha responsible for each type of digestive problem:
- Vata Imbalance: Makes you gassy, constipated, and bloated.
- Pitta Imbalance: Causes ulcers, acidity, and swelling.
- Kapha Imbalance: Causes nausea, heaviness, and slow digestion.
At Jiva Ayurveda, we don't just give you external medicines for constipation or acidity. Our doctors look at your eating habits, stress levels, dosha type, and other things to figure out what's wrong with your digestion. After that, we make a plan just for you to balance your Agni, get rid of Ama, clear blocked channels, and heal the tissues (Dhatus) that are hurting.
This method of finding the root cause will help you feel better for more than just a few days, and it will do so in a natural way with no side effects.
Benefits of Ayurvedic Treatment for Digestive Problems
Ayurveda doesn't just cover up the signs of digestive problems; it goes deeper to find and fix the real problem. This is how Ayurvedic treatment at Jiva can help you:
1. Fixes the problem at its source, not just the symptoms
Ayurveda doesn't just give you quick relief from gas, acidity, or constipation; it also finds out why your digestion is weak. Is it how you live? What do you eat? Why is your dosha out of balance? We can then treat the root cause so that your problem doesn't come back.
2. Safe and natural for long-term use
Ayurvedic herbs and medicines are made from plants and don't have any harmful chemicals in them. You don't have to worry about getting addicted to drugs or having side effects. That makes it great for use over a long time.
3. Boosts the immune system and metabolism
Your body starts to absorb nutrients better when your digestion gets better. This boosts your energy, strengthens your immune system, and even makes your skin look better. A healthy gut makes you healthier overall.
4. Treatment that is personalised to each person
At Jiva, everyone is treated differently. Your Ayurvedic doctor will make a plan just for you based on your body type (Prakriti), dosha imbalance, diet, stress level, and way of life.
5. Improves your quality of life
Ayurveda doesn't just help your stomach. It helps you sleep better, feel lighter, eat without worry, and enjoy your daily life again. You will have more energy, less pain, and a calm mind.
Ayurvedic Treatment and Therapies Used
When it comes to treating digestive problems, Ayurveda focuses on healing your gut from within using natural herbs, a personalised diet, and special therapies. At Jiva, our approach is not the same for everyone. It depends on your Prakriti (body type), current dosha imbalance, disease stage, and what exactly is causing the problem in your case.
