Rediscovering Balance: Ayurvedic Remedies for Psoriasis

Psoriasis is treatable

Namaste! I am Dr. Danny Devasy, an Ayurvedic physician with over 21 years of experience in integrative healing.

In recent years, I have witnessed a significant increase in individuals seeking natural remedies for psoriasis—a chronic skin condition that affects millions globally. Let us embark on a journey to explore what psoriasis is, how to identify it, and how Ayurvedic treatment for psoriasis can assist you in healing from the inside out. So, the whole purpose of writing in is rediscovering balance through ayurvedic remedies for psoriasis

Understanding Psoriasis: A Deeper Look

Psoriasis is a chronic autoimmune skin disease that causes rapid skin cell turnover, resulting in red, scaly patches, itching, and inflammation. This condition affects over 125 million people worldwide, and the quest for “psoriasis treatment” has surged due to its persistent nature and profound impact on quality of life.

Types of Psoriasis & Symptoms

Type	Symptoms
Plaque Psoriasis	Raised, red patches with silvery scales—most common form.
Guttate Psoriasis	Small, drop-like lesions, often triggered by infections.
Inverse Psoriasis	Smooth, shiny red patches in body folds.
Pustular Psoriasis	White pustules surrounded by red skin.
Erythrodermic Psoriasis	Severe redness and skin shedding—requires urgent care.

Common signs include:

• Dry, cracked skin that may bleed. The area is well demarcated and scales often.

• Itching or burning sensation.

• Thickened nails.

• Joint pain (linked to psoriatic arthritis).

  
  

Ayurvedic Cure for Psoriasis: Healing with Herbs Rediscovering Balance: Ayurvedic Remedies for Psoriasis

Ayurveda perceives psoriasis as a Vata-Kapha imbalance exacerbated by poor digestion and toxin accumulation (ama). Here are the best herbs for skin inflammation and Ayurvedic solutions that are gaining popularity today:

Coconut Oil for Dry Skin

• Rich in lauric acid and antioxidants.

• Deeply moisturizes and reduces flaking.

• Apply virgin coconut oil daily to soothe and protect the skin.

  
  

Wrightia Tinctoria for Psoriasis

• Known as Sweta Kutaja in Ayurveda.

• Utilized in Bakuchi oil or Lapsorin Oil, a clinically backed remedy for psoriasis.

• Contains anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial compounds.

  
  

Other Powerful Herbs

• Turmeric (Curcumin): A natural anti-inflammatory that reduces redness and swelling.

• Neem: Detoxifies blood and calms irritated skin.

• Aloe Vera: Hydrates and promotes healing.

• Guduchi (Giloy): Boosts immunity and purifies the system.

  
  

These herbs are increasingly sought after in searches for “Ayurvedic psoriasis cure” and “natural skin healing.”

Psoriasis Diet Plan: Eat to Heal

Your diet plays a crucial role in managing psoriasis. Here is what to include and avoid:

Foods to Embrace

• Leafy greens and bitter vegetables.

• Whole grains such as barley and quinoa.

• Omega-3-rich foods: flaxseeds and walnuts.

• Turmeric, ginger, and cumin.

  
  

Foods to Avoid

• Dairy, red meat, and fried foods.

• Nightshades: tomatoes, potatoes, and brinjal.

• Sugar and processed snacks.

  
  

A psoriasis-friendly diet aids in reducing inflammation and supports skin regeneration.

Hydration for Skin Health

Water is your skin’s best ally. It assists in:

• Flushing out toxins.

• Maintaining moisture balance.

• Reducing flaking and dryness.

  
  

I recommend drinking at least 2.5–3 liters of water daily. Sipping warm water throughout the day supports digestion and detoxification.

Lifestyle Tips for Psoriasis Relief

To further enhance your healing journey, consider these lifestyle adjustments:

• Practice Abhyanga (Ayurvedic oil massage) with medicated oils.

• Engage in yoga and pranayama to alleviate stress, as stress may exacerbate skin lesions.

• Maintain regular sleep and bowel habits.

• Avoid harsh soaps and hot showers.

  
  

These habits are often sought under “natural ways to treat psoriasis” and “Ayurvedic lifestyle for skin health.”
