I dosha vata, pitta e kapha si muovono attraverso tutti i canali di circolazione. A causa della natura sottile di vata, esso spinge gli altri due dosha.
Il vata aggravato, avendo provocato questi due dosha, si esacerba e riempie i canali vuoti e si muove notevolmente al loro interno o facendosi avvolgere dagli altri dosha.
The aggravated vata and pitta resides in the knee joints and produces redness, swelling and tenderness.

Nadi Shuddi Pranayam - calma la mente e dà sollievo ai dolori.

Il paziente deve essere seduto in posizione meditativa con la testa e la colonna vertebrale erette e il corpo rilassato. Il paziente deve chiudere una narice (ad esempio la sinistra se si usa la mano destra e viceversa) con il pollice ed espirare completamente attraverso l'altra narice. Di nuovo, dovrà inspirare profondamente attraverso l'altra narice mentre la narice opposta è ancora chiusa con il pollice.

Savasana - rilassa il corpo e la mente
