Hypo/Hyper Thyroidism
Balance Your Hormones, Restore Your Health — Naturally.
What is Thyroid Imbalance?
The thyroid is a butterfly-shaped gland in the neck responsible for regulating the body’s metabolism, energy levels, and hormone balance. When the thyroid underperforms (hypothyroidism) or becomes overactive (hyperthyroidism), it disrupts multiple bodily functions including weight, sleep, mood, digestion, and temperature regulation. These conditions are increasingly common today and often require lifelong medication in conventional medicine. At Kaivalya Ayurveda, we approach thyroid disorders holistically — restoring the body’s natural hormonal rhythm by treating the root cause.
Ayurvedic View of Thyroid Disorders
Ayurveda does not define thyroid conditions exactly as modern medicine does, but it relates hypothyroidism primarily to Kapha imbalance, while hyperthyroidism is seen as a manifestation of excess Pitta and Vata. Weak digestive fire (Mandagni), Ama (toxin) accumulation, and disrupted hormonal channels (Rasa and Meda Dhatu) are key contributors. Emotional factors like stress and overexertion also disturb the neuroendocrine balance. At Kaivalya Ayurveda, we correct these imbalances through dosha-specific therapies, herbal support, and gentle detox, restoring equilibrium in the body’s endocrine system.
Causes of Hypo/Hyper Thyroidism
Ayurveda identifies several lifestyle and dietary factors that can disrupt thyroid function — including overconsumption of processed foods, sedentary habits, late-night work, excessive stress, and emotional suppression. Irregular eating patterns and poor digestion weaken Agni, which plays a vital role in maintaining metabolic and hormonal balance. In modern terms, autoimmune dysfunction, iodine imbalance, and genetic predisposition are also recognized triggers. At Kaivalya Ayurveda, we take both perspectives into account to create a complete healing strategy.
Ayurvedic Treatment for Thyroid Imbalance
Our treatment begins with a detailed pulse diagnosis (Nadi Pariksha) to determine the nature of imbalance. For hypothyroidism, we focus on stimulating metabolism, cleansing the lymphatic and hormonal channels, and improving digestion. Herbs such as Kanchanara Guggulu, Triphala, Ashwagandha, and Punarnava are used to support thyroid function and remove Ama. In hyperthyroidism, our therapies focus on cooling excess Pitta, nourishing Vata, and calming the nervous system using herbs like Brahmi, Jatamansi, and Mukta Pishti.
Both conditions may involve Nasya, Abhyanga, and Shirodhara to balance the hypothalamic-pituitary axis naturally. Stress-relief practices, personalized diet, and routine correction are an essential part of the program — all under the expert supervision of Dr. Subodh Chaturvedi and our Kaivalya Ayurveda team.
