Dermatitis — including contact dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis and other inflammatory skin reactions — causes redness, itching and irritation. At AVK, we identify the underlying dosha imbalance and address it through internal purification and gentle external care.

Dermatitis is classified under Kushtha (skin diseases) in Ayurveda, involving varying combinations of vata, pitta and kapha with rakta dushti (blood vitiation). Accurate dosha assessment is critical — treatment varies significantly based on the dominant imbalance.
Every treatment plan is individualised after a thorough consultation. Below is the typical protocol.
Gentle marma stimulation chosen to match the dominant dosha involvement, easing internal triggers of the skin reaction.
Dosha-specific medicated liquid and paste therapies — cooling for pitta types, drying for kapha types — applied to affected areas.
Blood-purifying and dosha-specific internal medicines to address the root imbalance.
Trigger identification, elimination diet and stress management protocols.
