Virechan is a highly effective Panchkarma purification procedure that involves controlled, medicated therapeutic purgation (cleansing of the bowels). It is the premier treatment for eliminating excess toxins and aggravated Pitta dosha, which is associated with heat, inflammation, and liver disorders. At Ayush Nature Hospital, Virechan focuses on cleansing the small intestine, liver, and gallbladder, where Pitta primarily resides. This therapy is performed only after a crucial preparation phase (Purva Karma) to ensure safe, complete, and deep systemic detoxification.
The specialized approach requires several days of preparation, including internal oleation and sudation to loosen and mobilize toxins toward the digestive tract. On the day of Virechan, a personalized herbal purgative medicine is administered under strict medical supervision. This therapy is exceptionally beneficial for managing conditions like Jaundice, chronic indigestion, chronic constipation, Liver disorder (fatty liver), chronic skin problems (like Psoriasis and Eczema), and various inflammatory disorders. By removing excess Pitta, Virechan enhances digestive health, clears inflammation, and results in improved skin luster and a calm, clear mind.
Both are Panchkarma detox procedures. Vaman primarily eliminates excess Kapha (mucus/congestion) via the upper route (mouth). Virechan primarily eliminates excess Pitta (heat/inflammation) via the lower route (rectum). They treat different root imbalances.
While it involves purgation, the procedure is not harsh. It is highly controlled and medically supervised. The preparatory phases ensure the toxins are ready for release, making the elimination process smooth and non-debilitating. Our doctors customize the strength of the purgative based on the patient's condition.
Conditions driven by excess heat and inflammation show the best results. This includes acid reflux, peptic ulcers, chronic inflammatory skin disorders, certain types of headaches/migraines, and metabolic disorders linked to liver congestion.
The entire Virechan process takes approximately 10 to 14 days. This includes 3 to 7 days of preparatory therapy, the main Virechan day, and 3 to 7 days of gentle post-procedure diet and rest (Paschat Karma) to rebuild the digestive system.
You will experience a few hours of intensive bowel movements. Afterward, profound rest is recommended. Patients often feel light, energetic, and experience a significant reduction in inflammatory symptoms once the digestive system is gently restored through the post-Virechan diet.
