Joint & Spine Care

A personalised Ayurvedic diet and lifestyle plan for arthritis, back, neck and knee pain, gout and high uric acid.

Ideal for

People living with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, back or neck pain, sciatica, spondylosis, gout, high uric acid or osteoporosis.

How it works

This program is for anyone whose daily life is limited by joint or spine pain — whether from wear and tear, inflammation, high uric acid or long hours of sitting.

We begin by finding out what is driving your pain. Dry, cracking pain that is worse in the cold points to aggravated Vata; swollen, heavy joints that are stiff in the morning point to Ama. The two need almost opposite diets, so this step decides the whole plan.

Your plan then works in stages: clearing Ama with light, warm food where needed, followed by nourishing, Vata-calming meals that rebuild the joint tissues, with a daily routine that protects the joints without letting them stiffen. Weight, digestion and sleep are addressed along the way.

Joint conditions develop over years, so most people need at least three months to see steady change. Results vary from person to person, and your plan works alongside the treatment of your orthopaedic doctor or rheumatologist.

Program features

  • Assessment of Vata, Ama and digestion, with your reports
  • Vata-calming, joint-nourishing diet chart
  • Daily routine for posture, activity and sleep
  • Regular follow-ups and plan adjustments
  • Time and attention — truly being there for you, like family
  • Education on food, so small changes bring long-term benefits
  • Non-restrictive plans that don’t feel like a “diet”
  • Nutrition as a sustainable lifestyle, not calorie counting

Points to note

  • • Results vary from person to person; no specific outcome or weight loss is guaranteed.
  • • A 1-month trial is not applicable to health and disease management programs.
  • • Pause/hold facility is available only on 6- and 12-month programs.
  • • Consultation fees are non-refundable — see the refund policy.
  • • Continue prescribed medicines unless your treating doctor advises otherwise.

If they can, so can you
