Classical Medicated Purgation for Aggravated Pitta
Virechana
Virechana is classical medicated purgation — one of the five Panchakarma procedures — traditionally used to clear aggravated Pitta through the intestinal route. It is classically considered in certain skin, digestive and Pitta-dominant conditions.
Like Vaman, Virechana follows a preparatory phase of internal oleation and fomentation. The purgative formulation and dose are selected by the physician for your constitution, the procedure day is monitored closely, and a graded diet follows to restore digestive strength.
How Virechana is carried out

Suitability, preparation time and aftercare differ from patient to patient; everything is explained at consultation before the course is scheduled.
