This case study highlights the successful management of psoriasis (Ekakustha) through Ayurvedic Shaman Chikitsa in a 30-year-old male patient with dry, scaly lesions on the scalp and extensors. The patient, unresponsive to allopathic treatment, exhibited dietary indiscretions and irregular bowel habits. Ayurvedic treatment involved Shamana Chikitsa, incorporating Panchanimba Churna, Kaishor Guggulu, Khadirarista and Psoria oil, alongside dietary modifications. Over four months, the patient experienced progressive improvement in itching, erythema and scaling, leading to a significant reduction in the Psoriasis Area and Severity Index (PASI) score from 22.1 to 0.6 which is near remission. This case underscores the efficacy of Ayurvedic Shaman therapy and the importance of personalized treatment strategies guided by classical Ayurvedic principles in managing psoriasis.
