Abstract

Background: "Health" is a condition of complete physical, mental, and  social well-being, not just the absence of sickness or disability."  Panchakarma is used to eliminate toxins from the body and keep the  digestive fire burning. It's a considered trying natural therapy for re-igniting  the digestive fire and, as a result, restoring the body's balance and vigour. The  Panchakarma method involves returning accumulated toxins to the GI tract  and removing these toxins from the nearest root. Panchakarma is a Penta bio purification procedure that helps to restore body humour balance, eliminate  disease-causing complexes from the body, and prevent disease recurrence  and development. People's health concerns can be satisfactorily resolved if  Panchakarma is well supported by scientific documentation and  confirmation. Aims and Objectives: The major goal of Panchkarma procedure is to  maintain healthy people well and to cure diseased people. Material and methods: Classical treatises of Ayurveda along with modern  standard textbooks related with Panchkarma were scrutinized.  Conclusion: Panchakarma procedures assist Shodhana in detoxifying such  toxins and balancing the Doshas, preventing disease, improving people's  lives, and making it possible to achieve public health.
