title: Therapeutic potential of Satvavajaya therapy in the management of Amavata.
abstract: Amavata which is popularly correlated with Rheumatoid disease, is characterised by its eternal course, uncertain progression and unpredictable series of exacerbations and remissions. In Ayurveda the impact of the Amavata over psychological setup of the patient is well recognised. Satvavajaya therapy of Ayurveda may be considered as a kind of patient education in rheumatology but with much broader base and much better applicability.
