Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Dear Dr. Bhimani, It is a misconception that the leeches used for one patient are used for other patients as well. This may have been the practice a few years (rather a decade ago) but now with the sword of AIDS and other blood-trasmitted diseases no vaidya will use the same leech for different patients. I do not understand what you mean by "alone diseases", however blood- letting using leeches is used to treat rakta-doshas (not neccesarily blood related diseases). Another fact is leeches suck blood and do not inject it. The leeches used in ayurvedic form of treatment are drained after each session. The duration between 2 sessions is atleast one week. Since they suck impure blood (from ayurvedic perspective), they die if the blood is left as it is. So the chance of impure blood being injected even if it is used on the same patient is next to zero. This is not to say that there won't be any problems at all. However this needs to be researched. Many centers offering this therapy simply discard the leech after one session (however this increases the total cost of treatment). There are many vaidyas using this form of treatment with remarkable sucess. You can also contact the many ayurvedic colleges in India.
