What is Panchakarma and why is Detoxification Important?
Panchakarma is an essential part of Ayurveda healing, that includes different transformative therapies for bio-purification and rejuvenation of Body, Mind and Soul. Panchakarma detoxification and rejuvenation therapies facilitate the removal of deep-rooted toxins and emotions in the body, mind and soul and are the most important and effective ways to cleanse and strengthen the same.
​
Maintaining a strong Agni (digestive fire) helps in proper digestion of food, proper absorption of nutrients, creates healthy tissues and eliminates waste products efficiently. When the Agni is weakened due to seasonal variations, improper diet, sedentary lifestyle, unhealthy habits, stress, pollution etc. digestion tends to be incomplete, metabolism becomes sluggish, resulting in toxins or oxidants and free radicals as metabolic end products which get accumulated in the body. This toxic accumulation is known as Ama which causes damage to the cells and tissues and eventually causes a detrimental impact on physical, mental and emotional well-being.
Accumulation of Ama blocks circulation, energy and nourishment in the body. It makes the body lose the natural capacity for healing, and also causes the body to age faster than normal. As per Ayurveda, this accumulation of Ama (toxins) is the root cause of all diseases.
​
Panchakarma is a set of bio-purificatory therapies customized as per the individual health status to eliminate Ama and improve the Agni and kick-start the natural healing of the body. Panchakarma helps a healthy person with the maintenance of health and rejuvenation of the body, mind and soul.
