Internal Medicine

Kayachikitsa, also known as internal medicine, is the primary branch of Ayurveda dedicated to the diagnosis and management of a wide spectrum of chronic and acute conditions.

What is Kayachikitsa?

Kayachikitsa offers a comprehensive approach to health by treating not just the symptoms, but the root causes of illnesses. By restoring balance to the body's doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), dhatus (tissues), and agni (digestive fire), Kayachikitsa promotes long-term well-being.

This branch of Ayurvedic medicine integrates lifestyle management, diet, herbal remedies, detoxification, and spiritual practices for overall well-being, helping people adopt healthier lifestyles and improve their quality of life.
