Triwidh Chikitsa in Ayurveda suggests three types of treatment in Ayurvedic form of medicine. The first category of Triwidh Chikitsa includes the procedures of Devvyaprashay chikitsa, Yuktivyaprashaya chikitsa and Satvavajya chikitsa.

In Devvyaprashay chikitsa, most of the psychological treatment like casting of mantra (holy hymns), wearing of stones and gems and going to holy places are done to cure patients. When the patient`s abnormal condition is taken into consideration and then he is given medicine is known as Yuktivyaprashaya chikitsa. In Satvavajya chikitsa the patient is asked to draw his attention away from the factors that cause him problems. In the second category of Triwidh Chikitsa, forms of treatment are Antah- parimarjan, Bahir-parimarjan and Shastra-parimarjan. Antah-parimarjan suggests the internal administration of the medicine. The treatment that is given in out of their body like local application and others is known as Bahir-parimarjan. A surgical aspect is involved in treating of a disease or wound that comes under Shastra-parimarjan.

The third category of Triwidh Chikitsa includes Langhan, Langhan pachan and Doshavesechan (sanshodhan). In the langhan the doshas are applied in the least amount and the patient is also usually weak. In this his jatahragni (digestive enzymes) and vayu is increased so the disease or the abnormality gets settled at its place only. In the langhan pachan after performing the langhan certain medicines are give so as the doshas gets digested. When the doshas are vitiated in surplus then he is done Doshavesechan (sanshodhan). The Triwidh Chikitsa is an integral form of Ayurvedic treatment in India.
