        abstract = {Sandhigata Vata1 is explained under Vata-vyadhi in Charaka Samhita. Aetiology and symptomology of Sandhigata Vata mentioned in Ayurveda classics can be co-related with Osteoarthritis (OA) of modern science. There is a steady rise in the prevalence from age 30, such that 65.80% of people have radio-graphic evidence of osteoarthritis, though only 25%–30% are symptomatic2. Here 40 subjects of Janusandhigata vata were taken in two Groups A and B, with 20 subjects in each group. Group A received Upanaha sweda with koladi churna followed by Ashwagandhadya Ghrita as shamana sneha and In Group B Upanaha sweda with koladi churna followed by Panchatikta Ghrita as shamana sneha.},
