Naadi Pareeksha: An Ancient Method of Diagnosis

Abstract

Naadi pareeksha is the technique of diagnosis through pulse examination. It is the science that helps to reach the root cause of disease. The pulse when examined helps to reveal the physical and mental characteristics of the patients. A physician must be aware about the time and physical conditions of the patient. Before examination of Naadi a physician should take precautions. Subtle vibrations are read at seven different levels vertically downward that help in ascertaining various functions of the body. There is variation of pulse seen in aggravation of vata, pitta or kapha which is the basis for manifestation of diseases. In this article an attempt has been made to focus on Naadi Pareeksha both anatomically and physiologically
