"In Pancha Karma the body is purified of toxins. Pancha Karma is considered to be the most potent therapy for preventing imbalance." Pancha Karma is the science of cleansing the body from ancient India. The treatments are done with techniques, herbs, and oils appropriate to your constitution. The purpose is to profoundly relax the body and mind, improve the flow of energy by opening the srotas (channels of circulation), and prepare the body to eliminate excess doshas (vata, pitta, kapha) or toxins (ama) on the physical, emotional and spiritual levels. After a few days of these treatments, the doshas have usually "ripened" in their sites of origin in the gastrointestinal tract and are ready to be flushed from the system.

Preparing for PanchaKarma
It is best to schedule your sessions during a time when you can rest, and eat lightly. Light activity is acceptable, but you will want to allow your body/schedule some flexibility. One week to one month before PanchaKarma you will probably be asked to take herbs, & internal oils to help lubricate your body & begin to mobilize toxins. You will also need to have or have had an Ayurvedic PK Consultation to assess which therapies and which herbal formulas and oils will be most potent for you. More detailed and specific information is sent to you upon registration.
Women will need to schedule PanchaKarma Therapies so that they don't coincide with your menstrual cycle.
30% non-refundable deposit required to reserve your space. We advise you to schedule in advance, as we are often booked up to two and three months in advance.
