Panchakarma (Detox Plan)
A deeply cleansing, mind-body rejuvenating experience!
Panchakarma is recommended to bring back the doshas in balance and jump start the healing process. Depending on the severity of the imbalance and the duration of the vikruti (disease state) it may be a 7, 14, 21 or a 28 day cleanse. This process flushes out the toxins from your body from all seven Dhatus (tissues) i.e plasma, blood, muscle tissue, fat tissue, bone, nerves and reproductive tissues. Sessions last between 1 - 2 hours daily. First, we start with Abhyanga, a warm oil whole body massage with Marma energy point activation, followed by Swedana- herbal steam therapy. Depending on your specific condition, we will add additional therapies. During the cleanse you will take a light diet and follow certain instructions to get best results.
