Abstract

 During the last two decades, the average life expectancy has shown an upward trend due to improved living conditions, better medical diagnosis and care, resulting in the increased population of aged people all over the world. Jara, an inescapable part of life, is of two types namely Kala-jara and Akala-jara. Kala-jara being Sahaja in nature is cherished by everyone but Akala-jara is unnatural and untimely inducing a set of physical and psychological problems. In Jarajanya-vikaras, Vata dosha is predominant, Pitta is irregular while Kapha is in a depleted state. This cascade of events targets the Vyadhikshamatva as well as the Satva of the Vriddha, submerging him in a sea of multiple pathology. Rasayana therapy is one of the important branch of Ashtanga Ayurveda- especially designed for Vayahsthapana, Ayurmedhabalakara and above all for Rogapaharana samarthya by replenishing the Rasa and other dhatus. This emphasize its utility in Geriatrics, where in all these vital factors are seen to be quite essential.

Key words: Ageing, rasayana.
