Abstract

 Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease which has its effect on life style of the patients. Naturopathy is a simple and effective system of medicine which has taken its scientific form today. The thought of bending, stretching, twisting into, and then holding, pretzel-like poses while your joints are inflammed may sound impossible. RA may causes inflammation of the joints and other tissues in the body; it can be controlled by the Naturopathy like massage, hot & cold fomentation and Yoga like pawanamuktasana series part -I which has no side effects. During the three month study DAS28 & ESR was monitored. With the application of naturopathy & yoga DAS28 score found p>0.0001 which is more statistically significant and ESR score found p= 0.0210 which is considered to be statistically significant. Traditionally used technique like naturopathy improved metabolism of various organs of the body & yoga is helpful in strengthen the muscles & joints of the patients which further improved the life style of RA patients.
