Conceptual Study of Srotas (Body Channels) & Medicinal Plants Acting on Them

Abstract

Srotas (body channels) is said to be a significant component of the body and are responsible of Vahana (transferring) Dosha, Dhatu, etc. Srotomaya (made of Srotas) is regarded as the full body. These Srotas have strong ties to each individual moolasthana. Due to their involvement in the development, inspection, and regulation of the
Bhavapadartha flowing through the Srotas, these Moolsthana are crucial from a therapeutic and prognosis perspective. Srotas nourish the body, keeps the digestive and metabolic processes in balance, and restore the cleansing process. Disturbances in the transportation process are among the anomalies in Srotas. Clinically calming Srotas vitiation can be used to manage pathological disorders linked to anomalies in Srotas. The concept of Srotas is explained in this article in light of ayurvedic principles.
