PANCHAKARMA

Panchakarma treatment can be done in both healthy and diseased persons. It is usually contraindicated in children below the age of 12 and seniors above the age of 70 years. Also,individuals who are very emaciated, pregnant, mentally unstable etc. are usually not allowed to undergoPanchakarma. So, depending upon the patient’s condition as decided by a qualified physician, an appropriate Panchakarma therapy can be selected and administered.

Every Panchakarma should be started with Preparatory therapy and ended with After care as the body needs special preparations to withstand the main procedures. After the Panchakarma is over, the body needs special protection and regulated diet. This helps the body to return back to normal.

Poorvakarma is the stage when oleation therapy and induced sweating is carried out to help loosen the excess doshas and toxins accumulated in the body.

Pradhana karma is one among the Panchakarmas which is administered to expel impurities and revitalise the system. The five procedures are Vamana, Virechana, Vasti, Nasya and Raktamoksha.

Paschat karma consists of a rehabilitation plan with diet, rest and lifestyle modifications – which are usually done to prevent the recurrence of disease. This is to bring back our body to normal stage as far as digestion and health are concerned.

To get the full benefits of Panchakarma, certain precautions are specifically followed after completion of Pradhana karma. It includes samsarjana karma (gradual administration of food) and Rasayana (rejuvenation therapy).
After the Pradhana karma, patients usually lose some body weight and the digestive power becomes feeble. In such cases, the patient is advised samsarjana karma, which includes a specialized diet plan and restrictions in certain activities. This in turn brings back the digestive power and strength by starting from a bland diet and gradually moving towards a heavier diet (starch, carbohydrate, protein and fats, one by one).

Rasayana refers to rejuvenation therapy which follows Pradhanakarma to maintain the results of panchakarma therapy. Rasayana therapy can be done without Panchakarma too. But when used alone, itbringsabout lower quality results.

Once panchakarma therapy is completed, the imbalanced Doshas will attain equilibrium and stabilize the tissues further, leading to the body achieving a healthier condition too.

Panchakarma is the ultimate detox or purification therapy administered through a set of 5 specialized ayurvedic therapies. The treatment begins with the mandatory preparatory phase known as Poorvakarma and ends with the Paschat karma or recovery phase. In-between these two stages is the actual treatment process which is the cleansing phase and is called the Pradhana karma. This cleansing phase is in multiple steps and the ayurvedic doctor will set you through the paces according to your body’s ability to go through each purification step.

It is designed for the ultimate purification of the mind and body and treatment is primarily focused on balancing the vitiated doshas of the individual. It should be noted here that every Panchakarma therapy is designed specifically according to the patient’s needs, age and health condition. So, since there is no universal Panchakarma package available as a ‘one-size-fits-all’, treatments can vary from anywhere between 7 days to an upper limit of 21 days, depending on the individual’s needs.
