Voice Loss Treatment In Ayurveda
Voice is the best form of expression and identity. Ayurveda, an ancient science, describes Vak (speech) as Karmendriya (motor organ) and explains voice loss as Swara Bheda. Ayurvedic treatment of voice loss helps combat symptoms that lead to voice impairment.
What is Voice Loss (Laryngitis)?
Laryngitis, or the swelling of the voice box, is a condition in which the voice becomes weak or mute. It can result from overuse, irritation, or infection. This condition may cause hoarseness, temporary voice loss, or even complete loss of voice.
Prevention Tips
Avoid caffeine and smoking.
Stay hydrated by drinking an adequate amount of water.
Avoid excessively spicy foods.
Give rest to the voice and practice gargling.
