Ayurvedic Allergy Relief Program

The Raj Allergy Relief Program, based on the science of Maharishi Ayurveda, provides the most comprehensive and natural approach to allergy relief available today, both in terms of identifying causes and providing treatment.

Allergy symptoms are the result of an inappropriate activation of the body’s natural defense mechanisms. Your body is designed to react against foreign agents, such as viruses and bacteria. Inflammation and excess fluid secretion create an easy entry for immune cells, dilute the concentration of outside invaders and wash away toxins. If the immune system has become hypersensitive, however, it can overreact to allergens with results that are often worse than the simple effects the allergen might have had.

Poor eating habits, weak digestion and elimination, and stress can allow impurities to build up in the tissues and cells, disrupting the delicate biochemistry of the body. The result can be a decrease in the body’s natural balancing and self-repair ability. The Raj Ayurvedic Allergy Program helps to eliminate toxins, stabilize the nervous system, and balance and normalize your body’s natural healing mechanisms.

Frequently Asked Questions

The main healing approach of Ayurveda is to enliven the natural healing ability of the body. This is because every healing modality must ultimately depend on the body’s natural healing, balancing, and self-repair ability. Ayurveda considers that the real problem in allergies is not external allergens but rather an internal imbalance in the physiology. Therefore, any increase in the body’s ability to maintain balance could potentially help alleviate symptoms of allergies.

Symptoms of allergies are due to the inappropriate activation of the body’s natural defense mechanisms against foreign agents. When a foreign agent enters the body, the body develops a memory of the invading particle so it can activate a defense against it. This defense often includes vasodilation of blood vessels with resulting fluid accumulation and inflammation.
This response is a natural attempt to protect the body from harmful agents by:

  1. Creating an easy entry for immune cells into the area to protect the affected tissues.
  2. Diluting the concentration of the invading agent.
  3. Helping wash away the toxins.

Unfortunately the redness, swelling, irritation, and disruption of tissue function that accompany this process are often much worse than the actual affect the invading agent (allergen) would have.

Modern medicine understands the physiological changes involved in allergic reactions. Ayurveda expands this understanding by describing the mental, physical and behavioral factors that predispose the physiology to inappropriate allergic response, and by providing natural methods to help prevent and reverse these changes.

When impurities accumulate in tissues they contribute to many chronic conditions, including allergies. The Raj offers programs and tools to reduce the most common sources of impurities in the body including those from:

  1. impure or toxic food sources
  2. poor digestion
  3. poor elimination
  4. improper metabolism
  5. mental and physical stress
  6. environmental toxins

Ayurveda theory locates the cause of allergies in the stomach. Improperly digested food and toxins are carried through channels into various tissues in the body. The toxins themselves become irritants and are perceived as foreign bodies by the immune system. The result is an allergic response.

As the process continues, impurities also start to clog the channels of circulation in the body: the channels that take nutrients into cells and waste out of cells. The end result is that the tissues are not nourished properly and toxic waste starts to accumulate at deeper levels of the tissues and organs.

When accumulation of impurities reaches a critical level, the body often becomes hyper-responsive to any foreign particles and the person is now “allergic” to environmental substances that are in fact not harmful, and that should not be initiating a strong allergic response. The person now “has allergies.”

The Raj Ayurveda Allergy Relief program offers a multi-modality approach to improving digestion, eliminating the buildup of impurities and reducing blockage of circulation to tissues. Your daily Panchakarma treatments form the cornerstone of your in-residence treatment program.

According to Ayurveda, the body is governed by three fundamental biological principles — called doshas— that control all of the body’s functions. These doshas are Vata (regulates movement), Pitta (regulates metabolism) and Kapha (regulates structure). All three doshas work together. One’s individual mind/body type is determined by the natural predominance of one or more of these three doshas in the body.

Nervous system stability and activation play a major role in allergic conditions. Nervous system function becomes involved in the many neurochemical changes that lead to heightened inflammation and immune response.

Vata controls the overall level of balance and activation of the nervous system. From this perspective, a Vata imbalance can play a major role in allergy symptoms and therefore needs to be addressed. Because Vata is often the first dosha to go out of balance (because its nature is to move), Ayurveda offers many tools to help restore balance to Vata and aid the natural healing process.

Stewart Schulman

When I first came to The Raj I was uptight and stressed out. It was noticeable on my face. Once I finished my treatments and checked out I felt completely relaxed and so peaceful with much content. My mind and body felt the best ever. It was a very profound experience. Thank you.

Y.C.

I can definitely feel the difference in my body already with 3 days of Panchakarma. I highly recommend this because there are not many places in USA that adhere to authenticity as I have seen here.
