In treatment, the depleted levels of body components are increased by administration of dietary and medicinal substances (dravya) having similar properties (guna) and effects (karma). Similarly, the increased levels are lessened by administration of those having opposite properties. Thus, the equilibrium is maintained. [Cha.Sa. [[Sharira Sthana]] 6/9]

Diseases are caused due to abnormality in [[dosha]]. The skillful use of medicines, diet and regimens having opposite qualities of causative or abnormal [[dosha]] helps to cure the disease. [Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 1/62] The diseases caused due to aggravated [[vata]][[dosha]] can be treated with regimens having hot (ushna) and oily (snigdha)properties. Regimen with cold (sheeta), soft (mridu) and slimy (pichchila) properties pacifies [[pitta]][[dosha]]. Regimen with sharp (tikshna), dry (ruksha) and non-slimy (vishada)properties reduce [[kapha]][[dosha]].[Su.Sa.Sutra Sthana.41/11] The physician must know properties of the herbs. Usage of herbs without knowing its complete properties can cause harmful effects. [Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 1/125]
