Ayurveda thus offers cure for arthritis through therapies that aim to stimulate the digestive fire and diminish the toxins (Ama).

Vata: If Vata is in excess, joints will crack and pop.

Pitta: It is characterized by inflammation causing severe pain, even without movement.

Kapha: If Kapha is in excess joints become stiff and swollen, but the joint feels cold. With little movement, pain is relieved instead of aggravating pain
