Amavata is a Vata and Kapha Pradhana Vyadhi caused due to Viruddha Ahara and Vihara resulting in Mandagni, leading to the formation of Ama. Ama with the influence of Vata Dosha circulates all over the body and gets lodged in Shleshma Sthana in Sandhi Pradesha, resulting in the manifestation of Amavata. Snehapana is a mandatory Poorvakarma before Shodhana. Snehapana does the Uthklesha of Doshas before Shodhana, without which proper achievement of Shuddhi is not possible. Snehapana and Virechana are the main lines of treatment for Amavata. To evaluate the better result, here for Snehapana Kanjakadi Ghrita & Amruthadi Ghrita were taken before Virechana which is then compared and analysed statistically. A minimum of 40 patients, fulfilling the diagnostic and inclusion criteria of Amavata according to Ayurveda classics and based on criteria fixed by the American Rheumatology Association (ARA) in 1988 criteria will be selected and randomly assigned into 2 groups, i.e. Group A and Group B consisting minimum of 20 patients in each group. Comparative analysis of the overall effect of the treatments in both groups was done statistically with the Unpaired T-Test. The test shows that the treatment is statistically not significant in Group A when compared to Group B. Overall result of Group A is 25.08% and the overall result of Group B is 31.07%.
