Vamana

Literally speaking vamana is vomiting -why on earth would someone induce vomiting as treatment ? sounds crazy isn't it
Ayurveda works differently the name doesn't indicate the whole treatment ,the treatment involves lot of preparation ,the process takes seven days of preparation .special ghee diet is given with certain other restrictions.
Who can go for this
Persons suffering from kaphaja skin diseases ,asthma ,and for detoxification
Who cant go for this
Persons who are very weak ,who are dry ,who are not willing to go for this ,person not confident of this treatment
What is some ineligible undergoes the treatment
There are many side effects ,the mildest being headache severest being severe petrification of skin with bad smell.
The principle behind vamana is bringing the toxins to abdomen and eliminating it by vomiting on seventh day.
I personally have seen only 3 or 4 vamanas it becoming rarer these days only a handful of hospitals practice vamana ,i doubt anyone abroad practise vamana at all.The beauty of ayurveda is even with out a important treatment like many physicians are successfully treating many conditions.
