A PILOT STUDY TO COMPARE THE ASSESSMENT OF PRAKRITI THROUGH QUESTIONNAIRE AND NAADI PAREEKSHA
View through CrossRef
Naadi Pareeksha is considered an important assessment tool in Ayurveda. It helps in diagnosis by understanding
the Dosha involved and also in the prognosis of a disease. It is a subjective parameter and is hard to quantify. In
the human body, the most constant thing is Prakriti, through Naadi Pareeksha we can assess Prakriti. Prakriti is
also an examining tool that needs to be understood before treating a diseased. In this study, an attempt was made
to understand the relationship between a standard questionnaire assessed by Prakriti and Naadi assessed by two
observers. Though there were few similarities, statistically they were insignificant. This study sheds light upon a
need to train Ayurveda students in this unique examination technique of Ayurveda which would help them in their
clinical practice.
