    Abstract

    diseases. The Ayurvedic treatment of Avabahuka is not supported by adequate evidence. Methods: In order to identify research about the Ayurvedic care of Avabahuka, a comprehensive assessment of the relevant literature was carried out. PubMed, Google Scholar, and the Cochrane Library were some of the research resources that were looked at. The studies included both original research papers and reviews that were written in English and published up through October 2022. Results: Seven relevant studies were located as a result of the search. This research reported on the use of a variety of Ayurvedic therapies, such as therapeutic massage, medicinal oils, and herbal treatments. The use of Ayurvedic therapies was associated with a decrease in pain and an improvement in range of motion, according to the majority of the investigations. Conclusion: A combination of treatments, including Abhyanga (a type of massage with herbal oils), Lepa (application of medicated paste), and Vasti (medicated enema), was beneficial in reducing shoulder stiffness and improving shoulder mobility, according to a systematic review of ayurvedic management for Avabahuka (frozen shoulder). In addition, the management of Avabahuka was shown to benefit from additional therapies such as Shirodhara, which consists of the pouring of therapeutic oils on the forehead, and yogic activities. In general, the results of this study showed that ayurveda therapies are efficient in reducing the discomfort caused by the symptoms related with avabahuka. However, additional research is required to establish whether Ayurvedic treatments are effective in the management of this condition. In conclusion, Ayurveda is a strategy to the management of Avabahuka that is risk-free, natural, and holistic in nature, and it ought to be viewed as a feasible therapeutic choice
