Panchakarma Treatment |
| The word Ayurveda is composed of Ayu and Veda. Ayu means life, which is a proper combination of the body, mind, sense organs and the soul. Veda means knowledge.
Ayurveda is the method of treatment using natural
resources like plants, herbs, etc. with the knowledge for
a healthy life. In Ayurveda there are three steps in treating any diseases, they are
Samsodhana which is the cleansing process, Samsamana, is
the palliative measures and Nidanaparivarjana, treating the
causes for it.
Samsodhanam is considered a prominent process and should be administered with full care.
It is so important because the diseases treated by
Samsamana may occur again but those treated by Samsodhana,
the chances of recurrence is very small. |

Panchakarma is a synonym for Samsodhana. Panchakarma actually is a group of
five treatments which are not commonly practiced in all diseases. The
five methods of Panchakarma are Vamanam, Virechanam,
Vasti, Nasyam and Rakthamoksham. Vamana is emesis,
Virechana is purging, Vasti is enema, which of two kinds done with medicated oils and medicated decoctions and are called
Snehavasti and Kashayavasti respectively. Nasya is instillation of medicines through
nose and Rakthamoksham is the removal of impure blood. Susrutha, the father of surgery, gives stress to
Rakthamoksha (blood-letting) as one of the panchakarma, taking the two kinds of vasti as a single karma. |

Before doing
Panchakarma there are certain steps to be followed
which are called as Poorvakarmas. They are Snehana (oleation) and
Swedana (sudation). Snehana can be done by two ways, application of snehadravyas internally and externally.
There are four types to promote sweat in Swedana. The purpose of
Poorvakarma is to liquefy and guide the provoked doshas
(impurities) to the mainstream to facilitate the
Sodhana karma.
Another method of removing the impurity is by letting out the vitiated blood
which is termed as Rakthamoksha. This is an illustration of Lord Dhanwanthri holding a leech in the right hand
which is extensively used in blood letting.
Panchakarma has its own importance in Ayurveda, and
following it helps to maintain a healthy body and
mind. A well being !! For requirement contact
