Here Is How Ayurveda and Naturotherapy Help In Boosting Your Immunity

Dr Manoj Kutteri, Wellness Director at Atmantan Wellness Centre says, every human body has an ingrained doctor that we call as immune system. The science today has conveniently forgotten this inherent capacity of the human body to heal by itself. Ayurveda, Naturopathy and Yoga systems are built to fit into this “wholesome” health model proposed by evolutionary biologists globally these days.

The understanding is that human physiology is a self-correcting system that does not tolerate outside interventions in minor illness syndromes. Ayurvedic treatments are a natural cure for viral infections. The traditional Ayurvedic Panchakarma retreat with its deeply nourishing, enriching, and purifying practice is one of the best Ayurvedic treatments to treat viral infections like the coronavirus.

Through Yogic Kriyas like Neti, Dhouti, etc the Ayurvedic Panchakarma is performed in various forms like Shirodara, Januvasti, Kativasti, etc. and water therapies to cleanse, and cure the body from within. The cleansing therapy helps detoxify the body, and boost immunity to fight through viral infections.

Ayurveda is full of medicines and herbs potent to improve immunity and cure cough and cold. Tulsi is the herb of all reasons – with Vitamin C, antioxidants, antiseptic and antiviral properties. For Viral infections like cold, flu, etc or something as severe as the coronavirus, Tulsi leaves can be a perfect solution to fight through the viral infections, increase immunity and recover from infections.
