Palliative Care
Ayurveda-Based Palliative Care at Home provided by trained Ayurvedic nurses offers comfort and holistic support in a familiar, nurturing environment. These services focus on managing symptoms, enhancing quality of life, and providing emotional support through natural Ayurvedic methods. Key aspects include:
-
Pain and Symptom Relief: Nurses provide Ayurvedic therapies like Abhyanga (therapeutic massage with medicated oils) and Swedana (herbal steam therapy) to alleviate pain, improve circulation, and reduce stiffness. They also use herbal remedies tailored to the patient’s Prakriti (constitution) to relieve discomfort naturally.
-
Digestive Support: Nurses assist with gentle dietary guidance and herbal support to improve digestion, relieve nausea, and maintain appetite, which are essential for comfort and energy.
-
Emotional and Mental Well-being: Nurses guide patients in relaxation techniques, including meditation, pranayama (breathing exercises), and simple, gentle yoga postures. These methods reduce stress, enhance mental clarity, and help manage emotional strain.
-
Immune Support and Strength: Ayurvedic-trained nurses use Rasayana therapies—rejuvenative herbs like Ashwagandha and Amalaki—to boost immunity and vitality, supporting the patient’s natural resilience.
-
Caregiver Support: In addition to patient care, Ayurvedic nurses provide guidance to caregivers on supportive routines, stress management, and best practices to create a calm and healing environment at home.
