Panchakarma therapy is performed in 3 stages:
- Purvakarma - preparatory procedures that help the body discard the toxins present
in the stomach and tissues and help facilitate the toxins to move to the alimentary
canal.
- Pradhanakarma - main treatment which is designed as per each individual's needs
- Paschatkarma - post treatment care includes the diet regimen and the other dos and
don'ts.
'Pancha' means 'five' and 'karma' means 'action.' This five-fold purification therapy
aims at correcting the imbalance of the doshas - Vata, Pitta, Kapha in order to
maintain their inherent equilibrium. During each season of the year, one or more
of the doshas accumulate, which causes an imbalance and makes the body prone to
illness. It involves five cleansing procedures:
|
- VAMANA - inducing vomiting specially for kapha related illnesses
like asthma, coughs, chronic colds, psoriasis, acne, arthritis, diabetes and other
kapha disorders. This is a painless, drug-induced emetic process.
- VIRECHANA - inducing purgation specially for elimination of Pita
related toxins from the body. Here, drugs that stimulate bowel movements are induced
for the expulsion of excess Pita.
- NASYA - nasal cleansing by the application of medical oils or powders.
The nostrils are considered the Doorway to the Brain and nasal application of oils
is helpful in conditions like allergic sinusitis, migraines and epilepsy. If the
Nasya therapy has been carried out effectively, Kapha related toxins from the paranasal
sinuses are eliminated and the region nourished. Due to this, the patient feels
great relief in the head and clarity of the sense organs. Breathing becomes completely
unobstructed which gives sound sleep at night. Olfactory improvement is also felt.
Nasya is excellent for chronic sinusitis, headaches, throat diseases, chronic colds,
chest congestion, epilepsy, catarrh, migraine, voice constraint, eye diseases and
cervical spondilitis.
- VASTI - medicated enema is particularly good for alleviating excess
Vata. Vasti's effects are directly felt in the colon, the prime abode of the Vata.
With the application of a series of purifying and nourishing Vastis, the morbid
doshas and other toxins trapped for long in the tissues are eliminated. This restores
the equilibrium of the humours. Vasti is good for spleen disorders, colic, calculus,
kidney stones and many other diseases due to a Vata disorder. It helps in chronic
constipation, low back pain, rheumatoid arthritis, obesity, sciatica, various neurological
disorders like multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, dystrophy and atrophy of nerves and
muscles. - Sneha Vasti - enema using medicated oil which remains in the colon and
rectum for a short period of time to absorb the toxins and eliminate them out of
the body.
- NIROOHA VASTI - enema using a special combination of herbal decoctions, paste, powders
and oils. It has an effect on the nervous system to help eliminate the imbalances
in Vata.
- RAKTHAMOKSHANA - to remove impurities from the blood through leech therapy or other
methods.
This 5-fold treatment during Panchakarma has not only been intended for elimination
of disease-causing toxins but also to replenish the tissues with nourishment. This
is why it is often termed as Rejuvenation Therapy.
This therapy also combats neurological ailments like paralysis, arthritis, rheumatism,
dermatological problems, and mental disorders.

PANCHAKARMA (21 days - The Basic Ayurvedic Rejuvenation Programme)
AYURVEDIC REJUVENATION - PANCHAKARMA
AYURVEDIC ANTI-AGEING

Ayurveda,
from time immemorial focussed on anti-aging and rejuvenation programmes to prevent
disease process and to maintain an optimum healthy state. This is recommended for
anyone above the age of 40 for 14-21 days anually and any one above 60 years for
21 days anually. This programme consists of different Panchakarma and other special
Ayurvedic programmes based on the person's health and body constitution.
An elaborate description of this process of revitalization has been described in
the classical texts. According to Charaka, this miraculous change can be brought
about if one goes through a prescribed 6-month course of rejuvenation. But this
rigorous and disciplined process of classical Ayurvedic rejuvenation is virtually
impossible in modern times.
The Ayurvedic Rejuvenatory treatment practised today is called Panchakarma.
