Vamana Therapy
Therapeutic emesis (one of the classical Panchakarma procedures)
Vamana is one of the five classical procedures of Panchakarma treatment. This page explains what it involves and when an Ayurvedic physician may consider it.
Overview
Vamana is a classical Panchakarma procedure used in selected Kapha-dominant conditions after proper preparatory care (Deepana, Snehana and Swedana). At Vedamrita, it is considered only when an Ayurvedic physician finds it clinically appropriate.
When physicians discuss it
Physicians may discuss Vamana for certain Kapha-related presentations after reviewing your history, constitution and investigations. It is never a self-administered detox.
Treatment approach at Vedamrita
Care includes assessment, preparation, the supervised procedure when indicated, and post-procedure diet and rest (Paschat Karma). Not every patient is a candidate.
