What Is Virechan Treatment in Ayurveda?
Virechan is a Panchakarma therapy in Ayurveda that utilizes carefully selected herbal medicines, under supervision, to purge the digestive tract. It effectively reduces excess Pitta dosha and can naturally improve digestion, skin clarity, and metabolic function.
How Virechan Panchakarma Works
In Ayurveda, issues like acidity, skin disorders, liver dysfunction, hormonal shifts, and inflammation are often traced to excess Pitta dosha and toxic accumulation (Ama). Virechan purges excess Pitta via the lower digestive tract, revives digestive fire (Agni), aids the liver, and alleviates inflammation.
