Abstract

Ayurveda consists of many therapies among which there is one therapy which is “Dhara sweda”.Dhara sweda is considered as Bahirparimarjana Chikitsa. Dhara sweda also called as “Parisheka”. Dhara sweda is the type of Drava sweda in which medicated oil, milk,takraghrita,kwatha is filled into pot and poured slowly and steadily over the affected part of the body or whole body. Research indicated that Dhara sweda seems to regulates the various neurohormones either by stimulating the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous system. Dhara sweda is a special type of Panchakarma treatment that helps to relieve the  pain, stiffness, reduce stress, and improve blood circulation.
