Introduction

Panchakarma is a special procedural branch of Ayurveda, in which a “Super Specialization” of Ayurveda is expressive. Putative special procedurals of Panchakarma distinguish Ayurveda from other systems of medicine. Study of different eliminative procedures, massages, fomentation techniques, therapeutic emesis, purgation, medicated enema, bloodletting, oil shower on head (Shirodhara) are the different highlighted areas covered in this arena. Purification of the body is an ideal way to remove stored unwanted material from body where the causative factors of diseases are removed from the body. This can give a permanent cure from diseases or on the other hand avoid frequent exacerbations of disease.
