Vamana (Emesis Therapy)

Vamana (Emesis Therapy)

Vamana, or Emesis Therapy, is a classic Ayurvedic treatment focused on detoxifying the body by inducing therapeutic vomiting. This carefully controlled process helps expel toxins and excess mucus from the respiratory and digestive systems, purifying the body and balancing the doshas, particularly Kapha. It is one of the five primary Panchakarma therapies used in Ayurveda to restore health and vitality.

Indications for Vamana Therapy

Vamana is highly beneficial for those experiencing:

  • Respiratory Issues: Chronic cough, asthma, and bronchitis.
  • Digestive Imbalances: Loss of appetite, indigestion, and hyperacidity.
  • Skin Disorders: Eczema, psoriasis, and other Kapha-related skin conditions.
  • Metabolic Concerns: Obesity and high cholesterol.
  • Psychological Conditions: Anxiety, depression, and lethargy linked to Kapha imbalances.
