Kidney diseases refer to conditions that affect the normal functioning of the kidneys. The kidneys are vital organs responsible for filtering waste and excess fluids from the blood, regulating blood pressure, and maintaining overall fluid balance. When the kidneys are damaged, they may lose their ability to perform these functions, leading to serious health complications.
Kidney diseases are a growing health concern, often caused by factors like diabetes, high blood pressure, infections, or lifestyle imbalances. At our Ayurvedic clinic, we offer natural and effective treatments that focus on restoring kidney function and maintaining overall health. Ayurveda, the ancient science of holistic healing, provides a comprehensive approach to managing kidney diseases without the side effects of conventional medicines.
