The Department of Kayachikitsa is a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine, focusing on internal medicine and holistic healing. Rooted in the ancient principles of Ayurveda, Kayachikitsa addresses the treatment of the body, mind, and spirit through personalized therapies.

 It emphasizes the correction of Agni (digestive fire), which is considered central to health, and employs both Shamana (pacification) and Shodhana (detoxification) methods to restore balance. 

The department typically includes specialized units such as Rasayana (rejuvenation), Vajikarana (aphrodisiac therapy), and clinics for chronic conditions like diabetes, skin disorders, and neuromuscular diseases. Alongside patient care, it plays a vital role in education and research, offering undergraduate, postgraduate, and Ph.D. programs that blend classical Ayurvedic wisdom with modern clinical practices.
