Ayurveda is world’s oldest system of medical science also known as “Science of Life”. It is gaining attention and acceptance worldwide as it gives equal importance to both preventive and curative aspects for both healthy and diseased through its personalized treatment procedures. People are now accepting the fact that being healthy not just requires to get treatment for certain disease but also to prevent the fortune turn of potential diseases as a fact a significant shift has been observed in health sector from curative to preventive aspect for approaching either diseased or healthy confirming the commonly encountered quote “prevention is better than cure”, a multispecialty branch of Ayurveda, ‘Panchakarma’ is gaining widespread acceptance and attention globally by virtue of the same fact.
Panchakarma is a unique Ayurvedic treatment strategy that comprises of meticulously prepared treatments for cleaning the interior body in the most efficient way possible. Purification in this manner allows the biological system to quickly return to homeostasis and rejuvenate itself, as well as promote the pharmacotherapeutic effects of medications administered later. Panchakarma is a comprehensive therapy that works as a promoter, preventative, and curative.
Panchakarma functions as a bio-servicing mechanism for the human body, similar to how a motor vehicle is serviced on a regular basis and even when damaged.
As the name self explains; Panchkarma comprises predominantly five purificatory procedures namely; Vaman Karma (therapeutic emesis), Virechana Karma (therapeutic purgation), Nasya Karma (Nasal drug delivery), Basti Karma (medicated Enema) and Raktamokshana (therapeutic bloodletting).
Vaman Karma is a form of bio-purification comprising a procedure of intentionally generated therapeutic emesis to clear out the morbid toxins out of the body through mouth.
As per the Ayurvedic Science, there are three fundamental body humors vis Vata, Pitta and Kapha; these three are the bio energies known as Doshas which carry out all the functions of the body. For optimum health, the levels of Doshas must be in appropriate limit that’s why the main aim of Ayurveda treatment is to keep these Doshas in their respective levels as any derangement whether qualitative or quantitative; leads to the state of disease. Vaman Karma is the main array of treatment to dislodge the overburdened toxins potent enough to create pathology for disease predominantly of respiratory and gastrointestinal tract.
