The medical discourse of hair loss and its treatment is too commonplace, but when it comes to the question of Hair Regrowth all medical discourses either prefers to remain silent or else prefers avoid answering in straight terms whether at all hair regrowth is possible or not. Yes, for a great majority of people all over the world hair regrowth is almost synonymous to a myth that still could not be established in absolute clinical certainty and though for the so called modern medical drugs and course of treatment of allopathic tradition Hair Loss Treatment and particularly hair regrowth has always been rendered ineffective or at best loaded with temporary or inconsistent as well as varying effects, holistic treatments like Ayurveda and natural herbal medication in great many occasions has been proved hugely effective and consistent in regard to both preventing hair loss and boosting hair regrowth. Our present discussion on Ayurveda for hair regrowth would focus on various clinical factors that make Ayurvedic treatment so preferred medical solution for both preventing hair loss and creating clinical condition for further hair regrowth.

Myths and truths about hair regrowth

In relation to our present discussion on Ayurveda for hair regrowth we have to first clarify how far the question of hair regrowth in the bald patches of the scalp is possible and how far it can only be designated as a myth. Hair regrowth is at once possible and impossible depending on the scalp condition making it subject to numerous doubts, indignant skepticism, unreasonable optimism and myth. Actually though we all have scalp and hair roots that seem to be similar in general countenance and as per the so called growth factors, actually from one person to another all the constituent and contributory factors concerning normal scalp health, hair growth, balding process and other factors can be hugely different. So when the scalp condition and the hair roots in one condition of baldness can be rejuvenated for further hair growth, in another person it can as well be impossible.

There are myths about various types of herbal formulations and remedies that can make completely bald patches of people go through hair regrowth irrespective of the hair or scalp condition and that too in quick time. The actual truth that can finally replace these myths is that hair regrowth is conditional and it depends primarily on the scalp condition of the person rather than simply on the medical formula. Another important fact that must be observed is that the hair regrowth treatment also cannot be uniform to all patients in the same way as the contributing factors behind the baldness and hair loss also vary from one person to another.

Regrowth of hair in the Ayurvedic way

In focusing on the treatment and medication available from the tradition of Ayurveda for hair regrowth the fundamental principles of Ayurveda in explaining any health condition and corresponding treatment must be explained. Ayurveda in contrast to so called curative drugs and treatment of modern medicine does not consider a disease within the limit of organic functions and symptoms, rather the fundamental principle of Ayurveda is based on the organic and inorganic unity and equilibrium of nature and as per Ayurveda the vital forces of nature are creative within us and only when we through our lifestyle try to deviate from this balance and equilibrium and create unnecessary obstruction in the path of natural forces within us it pays back in negative psycho somatic terms and thus we develop disorders.

The role of Ayurvedic treatment is only to restore this ever existent original harmony and balance in our psycho somatic reality so that the disorders are expelled from their breeding roots and in doing so Ayurveda determines our body to have combination of three main physical characteristics, namely, Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Let us see in detail which type of physical characteristics are more vulnerable to hair problem and consequently less responsive to natural hair growth and more vulnerable to premature baldness.

Among the three main dominant physical characteristics or doshas particularly people with Vata dosha are more vulnerable to hair problem. The determination of the bodily characteristics is the first and most important step towards providing Ayurvedic treatment for hair loss or providing medication for hair regrowth in the bald patches on the scalp. Contrary to popular beliefs firstly the hair fall has to be checked and the scalp condition has to be rejuvenated before further providing treatment for hair regrowth and this is the precise reasons why the medication provided by the discipline of Ayurveda for hair regrowth is not just a ready formula that can instantly do wonder by letting the hair grow in bald scalp in quick time. Thus Ayurvedic treatment for hair regrowth consists of mainly three steps, treating the imbalances in the Vata characteristics or Vata dosha, clearing congestions in the hair roots, rejuvenating scalp to make way for new hair roots and finally strengthening hair roots to avoid further balding.

Treating Vata imbalance for hair treatment

Treating the imbalances in the individual with dominant Vata characteristics is the primary and most important thing of all. People who suffer from the unbalancing syndromes of Vata dosha tend to develop congestion in the circulatory channels of blood and nervous systems and congestions in these channels express in physical disorders like blood pressure, cardiovascular problems, bad scalp and skin condition, etc. Our hair roots terribly suffer from insufficient blood circulation in the scalp and this is one of the major reasons for baldness in people who are suffering from imbalances of air principle or Vata dosha. A great array of medications and preventive measures are administered to treat this imbalance that in a way make the stepping stone in the treatment of Ayurveda for hair regrowth. Bad scalp and skin condition irritation, high blood pressure and problems concerning blood circulation, constipation, nervous problem and consequent vulnerability to stress are most common symptoms of Vata imbalance which accumulatively contribute to the worsening of scalp condition and causing premature baldness.

The most important way to treat imbalances Vata dosha that is also simultaneously important for the treatment of Ayurveda for hair regrowth is to clearing the blood circulatory channels and thereby assuring enough blood circulations in the scalp to rejuvenate the hair root. In Ayurvedic Shodhana or detoxification process like Panchakarma this is done with therapeutic means and thus normalcy in blood circulation is restored. The other most important aspect of Ayurvedic treatment for Vata dosha is to treat the nervous function. Nervous function is made of innumerable nerves and their interconnected channels that carry signals for ourselves to function. When our nerves do not function properly or easily becomes stressed our scalp also suffers that contribute to premature baldness and hair loss to a great extent. Apart from Ayurvedic massages there are great array of medicinal treatment for restoration of nervous functions that consequently relieve stress and play important role in rejuvenating scalp and hair roots.
