Jatamayadi Choornam - Ayurvedic Medicine for Rheumatoid Arthritis and Gout

I started using this for shoulder tension caused by stress and computer posture. I can’t say the pain disappeared completely, but after regular application for a month, the heaviness and tightness definitely eased. I pair it with heat therapy and light stretching. What I appreciate is that it feels gentle, not harsh or chemically strong. The scent is herbal and grounding, which I found calming during nighttime use.

I deal with occasional ankle swelling from standing long hours. I tried this powder as a warm application, and the soothing effect was noticeable, especially the warmth it holds when wrapped in a cloth. The relief lasted a few hours each time. I’ve learned that the key is to apply it slowly and let it stay on for a bit before washing. It’s a bit messy, sure, but worth the effort if you like natural remedies.

After moving to a colder city, my joints felt stiff when I woke up. I used this mixed with warm coconut oil as a massage paste. It spreads easily and washes off fine. After about three weeks, the morning stiffness lessened. It doesn’t cure anything overnight, but I now rely on it 3–4 times a week. It’s becoming part of my self-care routine like stretching and gentle yoga.

I play pickleball every weekend, and my knees sometimes feel sore and inflamed. I started using Jatamayadi Choornam as a warm poultice after games. It made my knees feel soothed and settled, as if the heat and swelling reduced a bit. I still need stretching and hydration, but this really added relief. If you want something plant-based and external, this is worth trying, just be patient and consistent.

I was recommended Jatamayadi Choornam by an Ayurvedic therapist when I was dealing with muscle stiffness in my calves and lower back. I mixed the powder with warm water and applied it as a paste before showering. After two weeks of doing this consistently, I noticed the muscles weren’t as tight, especially after long working days sitting at my desk. The relief was gradual, not instant, but real. The herbal smell is earthy, which I actually liked.
