Ta’reeq (Sweating)

Ta’reeq (Sweating or diaphoresis) is a natural means of excretion. It is a process used to accelerate the secretions of the sweat glands of the skin. Sweating is the release of liquid from the body's sweat glands, hence it helps the body to stay cool.  
 
Hot fomentations (dry and wet), bathing with lukewarm water, hot massage (with or without oil) and keeping the patient in a room having hot air are some of the methods of diaphoresis.
 
The main objectives of Ta’reeq (Sweating) are:

• Excretion of Mawaad-e- faasida (waste matters) from the skin, blood and other parts of the body
• Reduction of the Haraarat-e- mufrit (excessive heat) of the body
• Transfer or diversion of the morbid matters (Imala-e- mawaad-e- faasida) from one part of the body to another
• Purification of the blood from wastes
• Improvement of dermal nutrition and enhancement of the body texture
