This, in brief, has been the method the Ashramam has been adopting for treating the patients who have been coming to it for relief. And by the grace of God, by treating the mind and the body, the Ashramam has been successful in curing patients, particularly suffering from Asthma, Diabetes ,Psoriasis and various type of lifestyle diseases.

What is psoriasis?
Psoriasis is a non-contagious skin disease that causes rapid skin cell reproduction resulting in red, dry patches of thickened skin. The dry flakes and skin scales are thought to result from the buildup of the rapid production of skin cells. Psoriasis commonly affects the skin of the elbows, knees, scalp, and ears but is not necessarily restricted to these areas. It can also affect fingernails, eyesight and can also lead to psoriatic arthritis which involves severe joint pains.Psoriasis is seen worldwide, in all races, and both sexes. Although psoriasis can be seen in people of any age - from babies to seniors, patients are typically first diagnosed in their early adulthood. It is considered a long-term (chronic) skin condition. Due to its extremely chronic nature, World Health Organization deems this disease as cured only after five years of non-recurrence. Psoriasis has a variable course with periodic ups and downs. In certain cases psoriasis may clear for years and stay in remission. Some people observe that their symptoms worsen during the colder winter months and report improvement in warmer months or climates. Increased exposure to sunlight (before 9:30 am and after 5:00 pm) helps improve this condition. Some people have very mild occurrences of this disease and go for years before realizing it. Small dry patches on their elbows, knees, or scalp are the most common initial symptoms that people fail to take notice. Others have very severe disease where virtually their entire body is covered with psoriatic scales.
