Ayurvedic Relaxation Therapy
Ayurveda, an ancient Indian System of Medicine, has been in vogue from times immemorial to impart natural healing for various ailments. The system was nurtured by ancient scholars on the basis of sound underlying philosophy, oriental methodology and practices prevalent in that era. This system is believed to be quite safe and free from side effects as it is more close to nature. Ayurvedic treatment comprises of two major parts viz. Samshodhana Chikitsa (Biocleansing therapy) and Samshaman Chikitsa (Pacifying therapy). Samshaman Chikitsa consists of conservative treatment like Langhana, Pachana, drug administration etc. Samshodhana Chikitsa envisages Panchakarma treatment which is basically a Bio-cleansing regimen intended to eliminate the toxic elements from the body and thereby enhances the immunity of the body. Samshodhana Chikitsa is considered superior to Samshamana Chikitsa as the chances for recurrence of the disease so treated are remote1. s Pancakarma increases the acceptability of body to various therapeutic regimens like Rasayana (Rejuvenation) and Vajikarana (Aphrodisiac). Thus, Panchakarma therapy is believed to impart radical elimination of disease causing factors and maintain the equilibrium of Doshas.
