Yoga For Calcification in Urinary bladder
by Smriti
(Germany)
Namaste. I am a 38 year old female and have 2.3 by 2.2 by 3.2 cm of calcification in Urinary Bladder. I had a CT scan and as per CT scan it does not look like a tumour but is calcification. However it is not moving like stone where as it is fixed on the urinary bladder. Can it be removed with Yoga and ayurveda? I would be indeed very thankful to you if you could please reply yo me on my email.
Answer1. It is best to follow your doctors advice.
2. There are some yoga poses which may help in getting rid of stones in kidneys or urinary bladder. If you want to adopt yoga as a therapy to remove stones, you need to consult an experienced yoga teacher. However, these are not sure shot methods and success may not be immediate. Meanwhile you can practice trikonasana, suryanamaskar asana, padotanasana, ushtrasana and kapalabhati pranayama. Baba Ramdev also advises to do kapalabhati for removal of stones in kidney, urinary bladder or gall bladder. Yoga practice will definitely help to improve functioning of kidney, improve the calcium metabolism and remove toxins from the body.
3. I have suffered myself from kidney stones in year 2001. For me homeopathic medicine was most effective and there has been no recurrence since then. In addition, I had taken horse gram curry and cystone ayurvedic tablets. Eating 1-2 leaves of kidney wort plant (known as pathar chatta in hindi)is also considered to be good for kidney stones. Also, drink lot of water and eat more of fresh fruits and vegetables. Eat as per yogic diet philosophy.
4. Therefore, you can do the following:
~ Follow your doctors advice.
~ Keep doing yoga.
~ Consult a homeopathic doctor.
~ Eat healthy well balanced diet.
~ Drink plenty of fluids.
~ Do not take calcium in supplement form.
~ Avoid foods which are known to aid stone formation like beets, spinach, black tea, chocolate and nuts. Limit intake of milk products and other green leafy vegetables.
Wishing you speedy recovery.
