Introduction
The most significant Ashtang Ayurvedic branch that addresses paediatric health care is known as Kaumarbhritya. Ayurveda defines Kaumar as a youngster between the ages of 0 and 16, and Bhritya as care and health.
The science of Kaumarbhritya comprises both preventive and curative treatments, from the fertilisation to the growth and development of children up to the age of 16 years. According to ayurvedic experts, a person's entire life is supported by the attention they receive throughout this time.
