Disease and Patient two differently to be examined and assessed

By Ayurvedic Dr. Satish Sawale

Why Ayurveda Examines Both Disease and the Patient

Ayurveda is a science of individualised healthcare. It does not view disease (Rog) in isolation but always in relation to the individual (Rogi).

Two people may have the same diagnosis, yet their treatment, recovery, and prognosis can be completely different. This is because Ayurveda evaluates:

What the disease is

Who the disease is affecting

This dual assessment is known as Rog–Rogi Pariksha, and it forms the backbone of ethical, effective

Ayurvedic practice.

Rog Pariksha – Understanding the Disease

Rog Pariksha focuses on the nature and behaviour of disease, not just symptoms.

 Cause of disease (diet, lifestyle, environment)

 Progression of imbalance

 Functional disturbance in the body

 Pattern of symptoms and triggers

This helps in identifying why the disease developed, not merely naming it.

Rogi Pariksha – Understanding the Individual

Rogi Pariksha evaluates the unique biological and psychological profile of the patient.

 Body constitution (Prakriti)

 Digestive and metabolic strength (Agni)

 Physical stamina (Bala)

 Mental resilience (Satva)

This assessment decides:

Treatment intensity

Duration of therapy

Expected recovery response

At Dnyan Raj’s TRUE HEALTH CARE, treatment is always adapted to the patient’s capacity—not forced by diagnosis.

Why This Approach Matters Today

Modern healthcare increasingly recognises:

Personalised medicine

Lifestyle-based disorders

Preventive and long-term care

Ayurveda has practiced this for centuries through Rog–Rogi assessment.
