Ayurveda is not only a medical science but also a life science which play a very important role in the management of chronic disease, one of them is Amavata which can be compared with Rheumatoid Arthritis due to its clinical appearance. Basti (medicated enema) is one among the most important Panchakarma therapies which is also considered as “Chikitsardha” (half of entire treatments). Kshara Basti is selected for the present study as Samshodhana process. It is mentioned in Chikitsa Sutra described by Chakradatta. The word amavata is made up of combination of two words ama and vata. The disease is mainly due to derangement of agni like jatharagni, dhatavagni, etc. resulting in production of ama. This ama circulate in whole body by vitiated vata and gets accumulated in sandhis causing pain, stiffness, swelling over joints. Total 50 randomly selected patients of Amavata were registered among them Group (A) 25 patients on Kshara Basti in the format of yoga Basti was given to these patients and Group (B) 25 patients on Rasonadi kwath was given for one month. Statistically significant improvement was found in ESR, RA factor (quantitative) and also highly significant results were found in symptoms of Amavata.
