Ayurvedic therapeutics are categorized broadly under two categories like reducing (Apatarpana) or nourishing (Santarpana); It is further classified into six types: Langhana (Fasting, reducing), Brimhana (nourishing), Rukshana (drying), Stambhana (astringent/styptic), Snehana (oleation), and Swedana (sudation). Besides providing insights into these therapeutic measures, this chapter also describes specific advantages of these therapeutic procedures, pharmacological actions of properties and their indications in detail. The features of optimally administered techniques while understanding the consequences of their over and under-application are also included. </div>
