Sandhigata Vata is 1st explained by Acharya Charaka as Sandhigata Anil and is a type of Vatavyadhi which disturbs the physical and mental health. Sandhigata Vata is the second most rheumatological problem with prevalence of 22-39% in India. In the intestine (pakwashaya) the smooth layer consists of Ca-Na (Kala Purishdhara Saa Eva Asthidhara) ion channel. The pakwashaya can be considered as a sthan of both Purishdhara kala and Purishvaha srotas and it is the vishesh sthan of vata dosha. Interference at pakwashaya sthana, ultimately act on vata dosha and this vitiated vata dosha may be responsible for purishvaha srotas dushti, impaired function of purishdhara kala (Asthidhara kala) and various Vatavyadhi and Sandhigata vata is nothing but Vatavyadhi.
