At RR Ayurvedic Hospital, we offer comprehensive Ayurvedic treatments for various types of stones (Ashmari), providing natural solutions that can help dissolve and expel stones without surgery in many cases.

Types of Stones We Treat

Understanding Stone Formation in Ayurveda

According to Ayurveda, stone formation is primarily due to vitiation of Kapha and Vata doshas, along with improper digestion leading to the accumulation of metabolic waste products (Ama). These combine with minerals in the body to form stones in various organs. Our treatment focuses on correcting these underlying imbalances.
