therapy
aims
to
control
the
ama
(toxins)
in
an
individuals
body.
By
analysing
each
person
individually
we
can
ascertain
their
pakriti
or
dosha
(their
genetic
makeup)
and
even
out
areas
of
imbalance
(vikruti).
This
will
include
the
incorporation
of,
treatments
and
specific
diet
regimes
into
their
daily
and
seasonal
routines.
There
are
many
Purvakarma
(pre-action)
treatments
which
prepare
the
body
for
the
flushing
of
toxins.
These
loosen
and
gather
the
toxins
into
the
digestive
tract
ready
for
extraction.
There
are
3
doshas
present
within
a
person
and
these
are
called
Vata,
Pitta
and
Kapha.
Vata:
(Movement)
is
a
force
made
up
of
elements
ether
and
air.
The
proportions
of
ether
and
air
determine
how
active
Vata
is.
The
amount
of
ether
(space)
affects
the
ability
of
the
air
to
gain
momentum.
If
unrestricted,
air
can
gain
momentum
and
become
forceful
such
as
a
hurricane.
Vata
means
"wind,
to
move
and
flow."
Vata
enables
the
other
two
doshas
to
be
expressive.
The
actions
of
Vata
are
drying,
cooling,
light,
agitating,
and
moving.
Vata
governs
breathing,
blinking
of
the
eyelids,
movements
in
the
muscles
and
tissues,
the
pulse
and
all
expansion
and
contractions.
Vata
also
rules
such
feelings
and
emotions
as
freshness,
nervousness,
fear,
anxiety,
pain,
tremors,
and
spasms.
The
primary
location
of
the
Vata
in
the
body
is
the
colon.
It
also
resides
in
the
hips,
thighs,
ears,
bones,
large
intestine,
pelvic
cavity,
and
skin.
It
is
also
related
to
the
touch
sensation.
When
the
body
develops
an
excess
of
vata,
it
will
accumulate
in
these
areas.
Pitta:
(Transformation)
is
a
force
created
by
the
dynamic
interplay
of
water
and
fire.
These
forces
represent
transformation.
They
cannot
change
into
each
other,
but
they
modulate
or
control
each
other
and
are
vitally
required
for
life
processes
to
occur.
For
example,
too
much
fire
and
too
little
water
will
result
in
the
boiling
away
of
the
water.
Too
much
water
will
result
in
the
fire
being
put
out.
Pitta
governs
digestion,
absorption,
assimilation,
nutrition,
metabolism,
body
temperature,
skin
coloration,
the
lustre
of
the
eyes,
intelligence,
and
understanding.
Psychologically,
Pitta
arouses
anger,
hate,
and
jealousy.
The
small
intestine,
stomach,
sweat
glands,
blood,
fat,
eyes,
and
skin
are
the
main
locations
of
Pitta.
Kapha:
(Binding) is
the
combination
of
water
and
earth.
Kapha
is
also
structure
and
lubrication.
One
can
visualize
the
Kapha
force
as
the
stirring
force
to
keep
the
water
and
earth
from
separating.
Kapha
cements
the
elements
in
the
body,
providing
the
material
for
physical
structure.
This
dosha
maintains
body
resistance.
Water
is
the
main
constituent
of
kapha,
and
this
bodily
water
is
responsible
for
strength
in
the
body.
Kapha
lubricates
the
joints;
provides
moisture
to
the
skin;
helps
to
heal
wounds;
fills
the
spaces
in
the
body;
gives
biological
strength,
vigour
and
stability;
supports
memory;
gives
energy
to
the
heart
and
lungs
and
maintains
immunity.
Kapha
is
present
in
the
chest,
throat,
head,
sinuses,
nose,
mouth,
stomach,
joints,
cytoplasm
(cellular
material),
plasma,
and
in
the
liquid
secretions
of
the
body
such
as
mucus.
Psychologically,
kapha
is
responsible
for
the
emotions
of
attachment,
greed,
and
long-standing
envy.
It
is
also
expressed
in
tendencies
toward
calmness,
forgiveness,
and
love.
The
chest
is
the
seat
of
kapha.
Each
individual
has
one
dosha
more
prominent
than
the
rest
within
them.
When
this
prominent
dosha
becomes
out
of
balance
then
dosha
specific
diseases
and
dysfunctions
can
manifest
themselves
within
the
individual.
This
is
where
ayurvedic
treatments
come
in
to
play.
With
the
use
of
these
specific
treatments
using
dosha
pacifying
herbs
and
oils,
the
person
will
be
brought
back
into
balance.
The
treatments
can
also
be
used
to
prevent
the
imbalances
happening
in
the
first
place
through
the
science
of
rejuvenation:
Bringing
ones
body
back
to
its
natural
state
by
eradicating
all
toxins,
disease
and
dysfunction
from
the
body.
