Does Ayurvedic treatment take a long time to heal ailments?
No. This is a common misconception about Ayurveda. In reality the time to heal any ailment depends on various factors- age of the patient, type of the disease, whether it is acute or chronic, how many doshas, tissues, organs and channels are involved in the disease process. If the disease is newly formed and is with a single dosha and tissue involvement, then Ayurveda can cure such a disease very quickly. On the other hand if the disease is formed with the aggravation of two or three doshas, and if more organs and channels are involved, then naturally, the treatment takes long time to cure this disease.
