There is a procedure in Panchakarma named Udvartana which is majorly used in treating obesity.

Udvartana 

It is a simple procedure of massaging the whole body with medicated herbal powders in a specific direction.

Medicated herbal powder is selected by the practitioner according to the patient's Prakriti, different types of medicated powder such as Kolkulthadi churna, Triphala churna, Yava churna, Kulatha churna, etc are used in Udvartana.

There are also some other benefits of Udvartana such as -
