Hemant* and Siramsetty Jagadesh Kumar

ABSTRACT

Ayurveda helps in attaining the Purusharthas by maintaining the health of healthy person and curing the diseased ones. To attain that purpose Panchakarma plays an important role by providing purification therapies which can be opted both for Swastha and Rogi. After these purification therapies the body of the patient gets weaken therefore the Rogi is subjected to Samsarjana Krama to regain the full health and to bypass complications. But inspite of this patient should follow the Pariharya Vishayas during and after the therapies until full health is restored, otherwise can land up in complications as after purification therapies patient body become weak and emaciated. So by not adopting the Pariharya Vishayas patient is subjected to nullify the desired therapeutic effect which defies the objectives to be achieved by Ayurveda. Therefore knowledge of Pariharya Vishayas are important to a physician and to a patient.
