Panchakarma
(The science of rejuvenation)
Panchakarma (PK) translates to mean 5 actions. This refers to the 5 ways
in which to cleanse the body naturally, by using and assisting the natural
functions of the body. These processes are deeply in tune with the way
energies flow, grow and heal, thus improving your quality of life and longevity.
Panchakarma is gentle, suportive, safe and effective.
"Through the thousands of years that
Ayurveda has been in recorded
existence, its basic principles have never
changed because they derive from
universal laws of nature which are
eternally true"
Sunil V. Josi

  • During Panchakarma, a cleansing diet of warm, delicious, easy to digest kichari
    is eaten, along with ingesting oils to lubricate and soften tissues.

  • Daily massage is followed by steam therapy to open channels and assist in the
    dissolve of toxins (ama) trapped in the body.

  • Mental toxins are cleared from the mind with Meditation, Pranayama (Yogic
    breathing),  Nasya and Shirodhara, allowing the mind to softly clear and the
    heart to gently open.
If Ayurveda were a religion,
Nature would be her God &
overindulgence would be her
only sin. ~Robert Svoboda
