Abstract

Palliative care is a holistic approach towards individualistic health care of people suffering from life threat-ening conditions. There are many misconceptions about palliative care that needs to be resolved. In devel-oping countries like India there is a huge gap between need and availability of sources for palliative care, creating urgent need of availability of more holistic & integrated approaches of palliative care like Ayurve-da. This study aims at reviewing concepts & modalities of Ayurveda which can be integrated in palliative care. The concepts & misconceptions about palliative care are gainfully reviewed with Ayurvedic concepts of Diet, Sleep, Rasayana Therapy, Wound Care, Pain Management, Music Therapy and Yoga in the con-text of palliative care.
