Virechana is one of the panchakarma treatments, an ayurvedic detox therapy used for the purification of the stomach. This process involves the effective eradication of excessive pitta doshas, which essentially control the metabolism, digestion, and the body’s energy. The treatment enables flushing out of toxins and doshas through controlled purgation or elimination through the rectum, which is induced by the intake of ayurvedic and herbal medicines. The ayurvedic medicines used for the therapy may vary from person to person depending on the patient’s digestion strength. This ayurvedic procedure is proved to be effective in the treatment of gastro-intestinal diseases, vitiated pitta doshas, gynaecological disorders, diabetes, and many such health problems.
