Abstract

Various Socio-political and geographical reasons helped Kerala to provide a favorable atmosphere  to flourish Ayurveda in this land. Inestimable contributions made by Ayurvedic practitioners in Kerala led to  developments in terms of procedures as well as medicine. Knowledge about the subtler nuances of performing  various therapeutic procedures, along with their clinical implications was recorded by eminent practitioners in  Kerala. However, it was dispersed amongst various regional texts, and it needed to be lined under one heading.  Authors Pavana Jayaram and Manoj Sankaranarayana managed to gather all these pieces of information together and  presented them in the form of this book named - Keraliya Cikitsa Paddhati.
