Nadi Pariksha is one of the Ashta Vidha Pariksha (eight types of health investigation) in Ayurveda. However, due to improper teaching methods and secrecy, this method of investigation and evaluation of the overall health of people, this method of Pariksha, eroded over the years.
Even though this method of investigation is a part of the syllabus in the BAMS (Bachelor of Ayurveda Medicine and Surgery) course, there are no teachers to share this knowledge. With years of vacuum in this space, Nadi Pariksha has been reduced to a thirty-minute to one-hour theoretical introduction.
