Siravedhana (Venesection Therapy)
Classical Ayurvedic Bloodletting for Systemic and Local Blood Disorders
Siravedhana is a specialised form of Rakthamokshana (therapeutic bloodletting) in which vitiated blood is released by puncturing a selected vein. This ancient yet scientifically relevant technique is highly effective in conditions involving blood impurities, venous congestion, inflammation, and pain.
In Ayurveda, blood (Rakta) is considered a vital tissue responsible for transporting oxygen, nutrients, and metabolic components. Controlled removal of vitiated blood helps in restoring internal balance and preventing disease progression.
Key Benefits:
Instantly relieves venous tension
Reduces pain, swelling, and inflammation
Detoxifies the bloodstream and clears blood-borne disorders
Enhances local oxygenation and tissue healing
Improves circulation and reduces pigmentation and itching
MODE OF ACTION OF SIRAVYADHA
- During Siravedhana, controlled venous puncture allows the evacuation of vitiated blood, reducing intravascular pressure.
- This process enhances oxygen-rich blood flow to the affected region, promoting cellular repair and reducing tissue congestion.
- It helps prevent RBC breakdown, minimising issues like discolouration, itching, and delayed healing.
- Overall, the therapy promotes tissue detoxification, healing, and symptom relief in chronic and acute conditions.
