Dr. Geeta D. Parulkar* and Dr. Abhishek Taksalec

Abstract

Panchakarma, according to the Charaka school of thought consists of Emesis therapy, Purgation therapy,Oil Enema therapy, Decoction Enema therapy and Nasal insufflation. Sushruta, the father of Plastic surgery has opined that there are more diseases occurring due to the vitiation of rakta (blood) than the vitiation of vata, pitta and kapha. Hence, he has clubbed the Oily Enema therapy and Decoction Enema therapy and has stated Vamana (Emesis therapy), Virechana (Purgation therapy), Basti (Enema therapy), Nasya (Errhine therapy) and Raktamokshana (Blood-letting therapy) as „Panchakarma‟.
