Panchakarma is recommended for individuals with imbalances or health issues to improve their wellness. But even healthy individuals can benefit from Panchakarma as a preventative measure to maintain overall health and wellness.  Panchakarma helps to boost the immune system, improve digestion, reduce stress, and enhance energy levels.  It also helps remove accumulated toxins from the body, resulting in a vibrant and radiant glow.

So if you're seeking holistic health and well-being, try one of our Panchakarma packages, even if you're already feeling good.  Our experienced Ayurvedic practitioners will tailor a treatment plan specifically for your needs, ensuring you receive the maximum benefits from this transformative therapy.

A combination of internal and external Ayurvedic therapies are used to remove toxins and rejuvenate the body and mind, as detailed below.  The treatments are identified through consultation with a registered Ayurvedic physician and administered under the guidance of a registered Ayurvedic therapist.

Panchakarma is considered safe when conducted by trained and experienced practitioners, but you should first consult with a qualified ayurvedic doctor to ensure that it is appropriate for your health needs and to minimize any potential risks.

  1. Pregnant women:  the detoxification processes can be too rigorous for pregnant women due to potential risks to both mother and foetus.
  2. The seriously ill:  treatment could interfere with the ongoing medical treatments of advanced cancer, severe heart disease, or kidney failure.
  3. Those with weakness or debility:  those recovering from major surgery or suffering from chronic fatigue may not have enough strength.
  4. Elderly unwell individuals:  those with weak immune systems or other conditions may not be able to handle the stress of detoxification.
  5. Children under the age of 12:  as their bodies are still developing, the detoxification process could be too harsh for them.
  6. Those with certain mental health conditions:  conditions such as psychosis or severe depression could be exacerbated.
  7. Those with a terminal illness:  the focus for these individuals is typically on comfort and symptom management.
Your health and well-being are our top priority, and we are here to guide you every step of the way.  With our expertise and guidance we can help you make informed decisions for your overall wellness.  Contact us today to learn more about how to proceed with caution and care.

The three phases of Panchakarma

Breaks down and clears blockages, liquefies toxins and moves them to the intestinal region.  

5 main treatments include:

  1. Abhyangam – whole body oil massage
  2. Shirodhara – medicated oil dripped slowly over the forehead
  3. Kizhi – herbal hot bundles massage
  4. Swedanam – herbal steam bath of the body
  5. Snehapanam – regulated drinking of oil/ghee

Other treatments are included according to one's individual needs and Ayurveda body type.

Here are 3 of the treatments in greater detail.

ABHYANGAM (whole body oil massage)

A traditional balancing method of massage that harmonises energy in the mind and body. This therapy releases deep-rooted tension, stress and depression, and regenerates one’s overall health.   They are performed with either Ayurvedic herbal oils or essential oils.

Benefits:

  1. Nourishes the skin, removes dryness, and provides overall rejuvenation for the body and mind.
  2. Helps improve immunity.
  3. Helps with paralysis.
  4. Helps overcome obesity, diabetes and asthma.
  5. Helps with arthritis, and assists mobility in joints and muscles.
  6. Helps ease chronic aches and pains like backache, stiff neck, migraine and rheumatism.
  7. Improves blood circulation and gives a soothing effect to the nervous system.

SHIRODHARA

A treatment that balances the nervous system through the use of herbal medicated oil dripping slowly onto the forehead.

It is a very effective treatment for releasing tension, helps the mind to be grounded, and assists with all kinds of mental imbalances.

Benefits:

  1. Helps to provide deep relaxation and helps overcome insomnia.
  2. Helps with stress, depression, mental slowness and schizophrenia.
  3. Diminishes hypertension.
  4. Helps overcome hemiplegia (paralysis).
  5. Helps against diabetic complications such as neuropathy.

 

SWEDANAM

A traditional treatment that involves steaming the body within an enclosed chamber with herbs soaked in water or essential oils, according to the person’s body type. It helps eliminate toxins through the skin and is suitable for all body types. It is the most effective treatment for obesity.  We use either a chamber in which all parts of the body (except the head) are enclosed, or a full steam room as shown below.

Benefits:

  1. Helps with problems related to arthritis, rheumatism, obesity and other bodily pains, including back problems.
  2. Helps to purify the skin

Eliminates toxins from the body using the five (pancha) ejection therapies (karma).

Treatments include:

Vamana – induced vomiting (dosha: kapha)
Virechana – induced purgation (dosha: pitta)
Nasya – medicated nasal drops (dosha: kapha)
Sneha Vasti – lubrication enema (dosha: vata, all)
Kashaya Vasti – cleansing enema

Depending on individual requirements, your programme may not include all 5 therapies.  Two of the treatments are detailed below.

VIRECHANA

A treatment to help clean the intestines through ingesting a special Ayurvedic medicine of herbs. The process is undertaken after the body has been prepared both externally through massage with oils/cream, and internally through the ingestion of ghee (refined butter) or boiled rice water.  It is accompanied by a strict Ayurvedic diet and must be undertaken under the supervision of a qualified Ayurvedic therapist. It is a safe process without any side effects. This treatment is recommended for a duration of 1-4 days.

Benefits:

  1. Helps control obesity, gastro-intestinal problems, Irritable Bowel Syndrome, worms and haemorrhoids.
  2. Helps clear skin diseases such as psoriasis and eczema.
  3. Assists in the control of diabetes and helps fight anaemia.
  4. Helps eliminate headache, cough and cold, and asthma.
  5. Helps heal arthritis and gout.

 

NASYA

A treatment for the sinuses. Beginning with a facial massage, this is followed by steam inhalation, and finished with a stream of medicated oil dripped into the nostrils while lying on the Ayurvedic massage table. While this treatment helps to cure problems in the head, it is particularly good for preventing diseases in this area.

Benefits:

  1. Helps clear the sinuses, eliminates nasal allergies, eases migraines and insomnia.
  2. Helps prevent many ear, nose and throat problems

Nourishes exhausted body tissues and establishes balanced metabolic and immune functions.

2-4 weeks of simple, healthy, vegetarian diet (freshly cooked meals free from processed foods, caffeine, sugar) accompanied by a positive lifestyle (regular sleep cycle, meditation, yoga, mild exercise).

Within these three categories, we apply various types of appropriate treatments depending on the nature of the person’s body and the particular imbalances identified. The treatments are identified through consultation with a registered Ayurvedic physician, and under the guidance of a registered Ayurvedic therapist.

All of the above treatments can help to alleviate and heal a range of common disorders and other health concerns such as:

  1. Digestive disorders
  2. Weight management
  3. Lifestyle diseases, such as diabetes and cholesterol
  4. Stress and related problems such as anxiety and hypertension
  5. Depression
  6. Spine and joint problems
  7. Arthritis – rheumatoid and osteo
  8. Infertility – both male and female
  9. Specific women’s health concerns such as menstrual disorder

It is also very helpful as a regenerative program for all ages and individuals.
