Abstract
In Ayurveda, Kshara karma is an anushastra karma for para-surgical procedures. Kshara karma aids in unravelling the bottlenecks associated with Shalya tantra for treating specific diseases. Kshara therapy is the alkaline therapy specifically intended to treat diseases other modes cannot cure. Kshara can carry out excision, incision and scrapping simultaneously and hence can find application in different ailments. But still, Kshara therapy has been least explored, and the present review aims at shedding light on the therapeutic aspects of Kshara. This article also mentions various therapeutic applications where Kshara has been utilised.
