Vaman

Classical Therapeutic Emesis for Aggravated Kapha

Vaman — therapy at Vasudev Ayurveda

Vaman

Vaman is one of the five classical Panchakarma procedures: supervised therapeutic emesis traditionally used to expel aggravated Kapha from the body. In classical practice it is considered for certain respiratory, skin and Kapha-dominant conditions — always after proper assessment.
The procedure is never done directly. It follows days of preparatory oleation and fomentation, is performed in the morning under the direct supervision of our physician, and is followed by a graded diet (samsarjana krama) that rebuilds digestion step by step.

How Vaman is carried out

  • Preparatory oleation and fomentation over several days
  • Administration of the physician-selected emetic preparation
  • Continuous monitoring by the physician during the procedure
  • A graded recovery diet and rest guidance afterwards
