Crohn’s disease

Crohn's disease

When the bowel is inflamed.

“I always have diarrhoea.” “After each meal I have painful abdominal discomfort.” “I sometimes have blood in my stools.”

This or a similar experience is what people report with regard to their suffering from Crohn’s disease.

A person who has Crohn’s disease, whose evacuations can be up to 20 times a day, is afflicted not only by the diarrhoea. Fever, loss of appetite and loss of weight, nausea and vomiting can go along with it. In this disease, certain parts of the bowel become inflamed, but not the entire bowel. The lower part of the small intestine as well as the colon are the areas most affected.

It makes no difference whether it is triggered by an autoimmune reaction against the cells of intestinal mucosa, the failure of the inherent defence against enterobacteria or an inflammation caused by specific viruses and bacteria.

What is the Vedic medicine point of view on Crohn’s disease?

According to the Maharishi Ayurveda approach, Crohn's disease starts with the loss of natural balance.

Metabolic residues develop continuously due to improper lifestyle. In the case of Crohn’s disease, toxins (in Ayurveda called “Ama”) accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract. Everyone affected knows that food intolerance and heavy foods as well as stress and an unstable nervous system can serve as an amplifier or recurring trigger to the familiar symptoms.

In Ayurveda every patient is different and so each person’s Crohn’s disease complaint varies. The Ayurvedic approach at our Centre is holistic.

What is the significance of that?

Vedic medicine offers different methods of treatment. After an in-depth medical diagnosis at our Centre, a comprehensive treatment plan is individually tailored for each patient with Crohn’s disease.

An increasing number of patients experience
that conventional therapies alone no longer suffice.

They recognize that healing must take place on all levels. In the case of Crohn’s disease, for example, an emphasis on elimination of toxins as well as balancing of daily nutrition and of behaviour can be recommended. It is important to bring all natural regulatory principles back into harmony. Nutritional recommendations and helpful exercises, as well as specific herbal mixtures tailored according to your needs, support a health-conscious lifestyle. In this way, your natural self-healing abilities can re-establish healthy bowel functioning.
