Ayurvedic Treatment in Kolkata for Kidney Stone
Some common symptoms of kidney stones include severe pain in the back, side, or lower abdomen, frequent urination or the feeling of urgency, and painful urination.
Ayurvedic causes of kidney stones (nidana) include dehydration, high intake of calcium, oxalate-rich foods, and certain medical conditions. Genetics can also play a role.
Ayurveda offers a natural, holistic approach to treating kidney stones, focusing on balancing the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha). Panchakarma therapies support kidney function better and prevent the formation of new stones.

Ayurvedic Treatments for Kidney Stones
Virechana (Purgation Therapy)
This treatment involves the use of herbal laxatives to cleanse the body and eliminate toxins, especially from the liver and digestive system. In treating kidney stones, it helps reduce Pitta imbalance, clear toxins (Ama), and support overall detoxification, making it easier for stones to pass.
Basti (Medicated Enema Therapy)
It involves the administration of herbal oils or decoctions through the rectum to cleanse the colon and balance Vata dosha. For kidney stones, it promotes the elimination of toxins, reduces inflammation around the urinary tract, and helps improve urinary flow, facilitating the removal of stones.
Swedana (Herbal Steam Therapy)
It uses herbal steam to open pores and induce sweating, expelling toxins from the body. This therapy enhances circulation to the kidneys, supports the elimination of waste, and reduces the inflammation associated with kidney stones, promoting smoother passage.
Nasya (Nasal Administration)
It involves the administration of medicated oils or powders through the nostrils, helping to clear the sinuses and balance the Prana Vayu (vital energy). While not directly linked to kidney stones, Nasya helps reduce stress and improve circulation, indirectly benefiting kidney health by promoting overall balance.
Shirodhara (Oil Dripping Therapy)
This Ayurvedic treatment involves the continuous pouring of warm herbal oils onto the forehead to induce relaxation. This therapy helps reduce stress and anxiety, which can exacerbate kidney issues, and promotes overall balance in the body, aiding the kidney’s natural detoxification and healing process.
What Happens When Kidney Stones are Left Untreated? An Ayurvedic Perspective
Aggravation of Pitta Imbalance and Inflammation
If kidney stones are ignored, the Pitta dosha becomes aggravated, leading to inflammation and pain in the urinary tract, which can worsen symptoms like burning sensations and discomfort.
Blockage of Urinary Flow
Unresolved kidney stones can cause complete or partial blockages in the urinary tract, leading to pressure buildup in the kidneys, which can cause swelling, pain, and potentially more severe kidney damage.
Formation of Larger Stones
Left untreated, small kidney stones can grow larger, making them more difficult to pass and increasing the risk of complications such as hydronephrosis or even renal failure.
Weakened Digestive System
In Ayurveda, untreated kidney stones lead to the build-up of Ama (toxins) in the digestive system, which disrupts metabolism and can contribute to further health imbalances, weakening the body’s natural detoxifying abilities.
