Abstract: 
Diabetes Mellitus is one of the most common endocrine disorder. Diabetes is a Greek word meaning 'a passer through: a siphon' and mellitus derives from the Greek word for 'Sweet'. Diabetes Mellitus is burning problem of 21st century. The Greeks named it thus due to the excessive amounts of urine produced by sufferers which attracted insects because of its glucose content1. Ayurveda explains this concept about thousands years ago in the context of Prameha. As we know that there are various factors responsible for development of Prameha like Aaharaja Hetu, ViharajaHetu, improper Dinacharya and now a day’s Manasika Hetus are also versening the disease formation. So treatment of Manasa Bhavas are also important in the Prameha. Majority of the Diabetic patient is mentally upset. Psychology of the person determines effect of the Diabetes or severity of the Diabetes. Shirodhara & Shamana Chikitsa is useful to control Manasa Bhava & Prameha.
