Authors: Suman Singh, Dr. Neha Desai, Dr. Manish Kumar

Abstract: Samshodhana, a key element of Panchakarma therapies in Ayurveda, is an ancient and holistic detoxification process aimed at removing accumulated toxins (Ama) from the body. This paper explores the role of Samshodhana therapies, including Vamana (therapeutic emesis) and Virechana (therapeutic purgation), in cleansing the body for long-term health benefits. Emphasizing the procedures, benefits, and scientific aspects of these therapies, the paper delves into how they contribute to restoring the balance of doshas (bio-energies) and enhancing overall health.
