Vaman Karma

The Kapha-Cleansing Panchakarma Treatment

What is Vaman Karma?

Vaman Karma is a purification therapy in Panchakarma where controlled vomiting (therapeutic emesis) is induced to eliminate excess Kapha dosha and toxins (ama) from the body.
It is considered one of the most effective methods to clear the respiratory and digestive systems.

This treatment is especially beneficial for disorders caused by Kapha imbalance such as asthma, chronic cough, allergies, sinusitis, obesity, skin diseases, and certain metabolic conditions. By cleansing the stomach, chest, and respiratory passages, it helps restore balance in the body, improves digestion, clears the airways, enhances immunity, and boosts energy levels.

After Vaman, a specific diet plan (Samsarjana Krama) is followed to gradually strengthen digestion and metabolism. When done under expert supervision, Vaman Karma not only detoxifies the body but also promotes overall well-being by balancing the doshas and rejuvenating both body and mind.
