Abstract

Introduction: Maintenance of the health in healthy and the cure of the diseased one is the prime goal of Ayurveda science. The dosha and dhatu are responsible for the mechanism of the body. Thus, the treatment of the diseases aims at the balancing the dosha and dhatu. The spectrum of treatment of diseases includes desha, dosha, aushadha and sadhyasadhyata of the vyadhi. The term desha encompasses deha (body) and bhumi (geographical area) in which diseases occurs. Vataja, pittaja and kaphaja are three types of deha prakriti (constitution). Jangala, anupa and sadharana are the types of bhumi. Anupa desha contains marshy land, hills, lakes, well, river are found in the great numbers. The underground water level is not deep, coastal areas, with their abundant varieties of fruits and vegetables, are more prone to kaphaja and vataja diseases. Discussion: Prognosis of the diseases depends on the similarity and dissimilarity in the properties of desha. Kapha doshaja vyadhi arises in the Anupa desha which is difficult to cure because of its similar properties. While diseases having dissimilar properties can be treated easily. Conclusion: Globalization leads to the migration of people from one place to other. Hence, desha can be considered the main factor in the successful treatment of diseases. Contemplation of the properties of the causes is required to treat the diseases. Such ambit of diseases occurring in the anupa region can be treated by using the Ayurveda modalities.
