History of Panchakarma
Panchakarma ("Pancha" means five and "karma" means treatment) is the classic Ayurvedic regimen for purifying and rejuvenating your body—physically and emotionally. Originally designed to bolster the health and longevity of royalty, Panchakarma is a wonderful process designed to “hit our internal reset buttons” to change our health and lives. It is Ayurveda’s most effective and powerful system for treating disease.
At MonaV Wellness, we work with you to design a custom body therapy program to meet your individual needs. The ultimate goal is to clear and cleanse your body from accumulated impurities and restore your life-enhancing energy.
A Panchakarma process typically lasts eight days and is followed by three to seven days of rejuvenating body therapies. The process includes:
1. Poorva Karma – Preparation
After an initial consultation, dietary and herbal practices prepare the body and mind for complete detoxification and elimination of excess doshic energies.
2. Panchakarma – the “Five Actions”
As diet and herbal support continues, customized therapies act to coax toxins and excess doshic energies from deeper tissues into the digestive tract. These toxins and forces are then eliminated through those of the five actions determined most appropriate for you.
3. Rasayana – Rejuvenation
Once your body and mind are clean and clear, it’s time to build up your tissues with vital nourishment for sustained well-being and longevity. A customized Rasayana program includes a nutrition plan, herbal supplements, therapeutic self-care practices and lifestyle choices. Panchakarma bring results.
