Abstract

Introduction: Avabahuka is a Vata Vyadhi caused by vitiated Vata- Kapha Doshas. Vata causes wasting of Amsa Bandhana and Siraakunchana (constriction of vessels) and hampers the movement of Amsa Sandhi. Avabahuka causes problem in daily routine of an individual like wearing clothes, eating, personal hygiene etc. Avabahuka can be correlated with the symptoms of Adhesive capsulitis also known as Frozen Shoulder. It causes painful restriction, with significant loss of range of motion of the shoulder joint. As there is no promising and satisfactory treatment available in modern system of medicine. Panchakarma provides effective treatment through Shodhana therapy. Acharya Charaka has recommended Snehana- Swedana for the treatment of Vata- Kaphaj disorder. Methods: 40 patients of Avabahuka, were randomly divided into two groups, Group A received Sthanik Abhyanga with Sthanik Patra Pinda Swedana and Group B Sthanik Abhyanga with Sthanik Parisheka for 7 days. With help of assessment tools and gradation of symptoms, the findings of research work were statistically analysed. Results: Results of this study shows that both the study group were effective in reliving the symptoms of Avabahuka, Sthanik Patra Pinda Swedana was found statistically significant in comparison with, Sthanik Parisheka. Discussion: Two group of Swedana Karma, showed recovery from the symptoms of Avabahuka efficiently. This study shows that, Patra Pinda Swedana provide better result in comparison with Sthanik Parisheka. Hence it can be said that Patra Pinda Swedana has its own effect also in relieving Avabahuka.
