Panchakarma Treatment in Pune

Explanation of Key Panchakarma Practices

Vamana Therapy (Therapeutic Vomiting):

Virechana Therapy (Purgation Therapy) : Ayurvedic Pitta Detox

Virechana therapy is a classical Panchakarma procedure that eliminates excess Pitta dosha through controlled, medicated purgation. After Purvakarma (oleation and sudation), herbal laxatives are administered to cleanse the liver, intestines, and blood of accumulated toxins. Along with Vamana and Virechana therapy, it forms one of Ayurveda’s core detox procedures. At Ashtang Ayurved Hospital, ayurvedic Virechana therapy is performed under Dr. Amit Kashid’s (BAMS, MD Ayurveda) supervision, following authentic classical protocols.
