Kayachikitsa is one of the eight branches of Ayurveda, which deals with the multi-systemic illnesses of adults. It deals with a therapeutic approach to the disease either through Shodhana (purification), Shamana (pacification) and Satwawajaya (Counseling). These applications are done through medications, behavioural, psychological & life style management. Pharmacological intervention is through various forms of medicines like vati (tablets), kashaya (decoctions), churna (powders), bhasma, asava, arista, ghruta, guggulus, etc. The strength of the system is providing efficient, cost-effective, personalized medicine with high safety margins. Department of Kayachikitsa for Undergraduate was individualised in 1963, since then the department is growing and working for the upliftment of Kayachikitsa, the first speciality of Ayurveda, which successfully flourished inspite of various adversaries for centuries.
