ABSTRACT
Ayurveda, the ancient holistic system of medicine, offers a range of therapeutic practices to maintain health and treat diseases by balancing the three doshas: Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Among these practices, Virechana (therapeutic purgation) is particularly significant for managing Pitta-related disorders also for vata and kaphaja vyadhis.
