Benefits of Panchakarma
For Detoxifying the Body and Mind.
By Creating Balance and Harmony through Nourishment and Rejuvenation.
What is Panchakarma?
Pancharkma means 'five actions', specifying the five methods of cleansing and renewing the body. This is a process used to clean the body of toxic materials left by disease, poor nutrition and environmental toxins. These treatments are hands-on rejuvenation techniques that purge the physiological stress and age from the body's deep tissues.
Panchakarma (PK) is considered the "soul" of Ayurveda because it powerfully cleanses the body and revitalizes the inner balance that is essential for good health. Due to this holistic approach, PK addresses a diverse range of symptoms by treating the underlying cause at its source, and restores the body's natural capacity to heal itself and resist future diseases.
Panchakarma will remove the excess doshas and correct imbalances in them as well as eliminate the harmful ama out of your system through the body’s own organs and channels of elimination (colon, sweat glands, lungs, bladder, urinary tract, stomach, intestines, etc). Panchakarma purifies the tissues at a very deep level.
Panchakarma is one of the most effective healing modalities in Ayurvedic Medicine. It is recommended on a seasonal basis (once yearly), as well as when an individual feels out of balance or is experiencing illness.
