Kerala Ayurveda Panchakarma Treatment

Traditional Ayurvedic Panchakarma Detoxification in Melbourne

 

  

 

What is Panchakarma?

 

To remove Ama (toxins) from the system, Ayurveda employs many Ayurvedic detox internal bio-cleansing programs. One of these, most widely known worldwide, is a five-procedure program called Panchakarma ("five actions") treatment. Panchakarma is the Sanskrit term for detox or purification and translates as the five (Pancha) actions (karma) necessary to cleanse the body from accumulated waste material. These waste materials could be anything from fat, fatty acids, carbs, glucose, cholesterol or inflammatory markers.

 

Ayurveda, an ancient Indian system of medicine, has been practised by Ayurvedic practitioners for thousands of years to enhance health and well-being and rectify long-standing chronic diseases. Ayurvedic Doctors may prescribe various herbs and medicines during and after the Panchakarma treatment to ensure effectiveness. But there is no one set rule for two individuals about the Panchakarma detox plan. One's Ayurvedic detox panchakarma plans, herbs and oils might look completely different from another based on their body strength, doshas and spread of disease etc.

Panchakarma is believed to rejuvenate and revitalize the mind and body and systematically strengthen and balance all the body's primary tissues and organs. Through a series of therapeutic procedures planned by Ayurvedic Practitioners, Ayurvedic detox is tailored to the client's constitution (Prakriti) or imbalance doshas. Only a proper, planned Panchakarma treatment systematically helps to release, melt, loosen, mobilize and eliminate toxins and impurities from all bodily issues.

 

Once tissues have been cleansed and digestive fire has been strengthened, an Ayurveda doctor will recommend the food and herbs, which would then be capable of being effectively metabolized by the body. Health improvement is then possible and constant.

 

What Are the Steps of Panchakarma Detoxification?

 

For an Ayurvedic detox like Panchakarma detox to be successful, one must first rest the mind and the digestive system, as these are our two most energy-demanding activities. This Ayurvedic detox method maximizes the potential energy available for cleansing, re-balancing and strengthening the body.

The next step is to gently move waste products and toxins (Ama) from where they are lodged in the deeper structures of the body and to eliminate them either through the nose and mouth (through nasya & Vamana therapy), the gastrointestinal tract (through an enema or basti therapy) or through the pores of the skin (through heating or sweating therapy - sedan). Finally, one needs to nourish and strengthen the body with natural herbs and Indian Medicines. To safely and comfortably flush toxins and impurities from the body require several essential stages. 

 

 

What Does Panchakarma Detoxification Treatment Involve?

 

Let's understand how a qualified Ayurvedic practitioner performs full-fleshed panchakarma detox. The panchakarma Ayurvedic detox programs used at Ayurvedic treatment canters include pre-purification methods to prepare the body to let go of the toxins, followed by purification methods.

 

The first preparatory step is called Internal Oleation. The client is asked to drink a specific, small quantity of ghee (medicated clarified butter) every day, instead of breakfast, for 5 to 7 days. The ghee creates a thin film in the body's channels that lubricates them, allowing the lodged Ama (toxins) in the deep connective tissues to move freely, without sticking to the tracks, into the gastrointestinal tract for elimination. Internal oleation is done for five days or even longer, depending on the individual circumstances.

 

This is followed by External Oleation in oil massage (snehana) and sweating (Sweden). Oil is applied to the entire body with a massage that helps the toxins move toward the gastrointestinal tract. Ayurvedic massage also softens the superficial and deep tissues, helping relieve stress and nourish the nervous system. Then the individual is given a herbal steam bath, which further loosens the toxins and increases their movement toward the gastrointestinal tract.

After complete internal and external oleation therapies, it is considered that the aggravated doshas are well "ripened" and are ready to be removed. The Ayurveda practitioner gave purgation or laxative therapy (virechana) to remove aggravated doshas and accumulated Ama from the small intestines and colon.

 

So far, only the removal of toxins and cleansing of the body is done. But after this, rejuvenation therapy is started in the last stage of panchakarma treatment. This rejuvenation therapy will help modulate the body's lymphatic system or immunity, re-educate the cells, or reboot the cell's functions or body doshas. 

 

 

Can I Do Panchakarma Detoxification at Home?

 

Panchakarma Ayurvedic detox is a unique, powerful treatment or procedure requiring guidance from a suitably qualified and trained Ayurvedic Practitioner or doctor, not just someone with a modest amount of Ayurvedic training. It is performed and planned individually for each person, with their specific constitution and medical condition in mind, and it requires close observation, guidance, and supervision at every stage, including post-panchakarma support.

 

So one should never plan its panchakarma treatment. Only an Ayurvedic doctor should arrange this. Out of whole panchakarma treatments, few things can be done at home. Only following steps or stages of panchakarma treatment can be done at home, but still, your ayurvedic doctor should supervise everything.

  • The first stage of panchakarma treatment (internal oleation- taking medicated ghee)- can be taken from home.
  • The second stage of panchakarma treatment (external oleation- getting specific ayurvedic therapies)- must be done only in the ayurvedic clinic.
  • The third stage of Panchakarma treatment (medicated purgation)- can be done from home (under the strict supervision of an Ayurveda doctor).
  • The fourth stage of Panchakarma Ayurvedic detox is the rejuvenation stage, where khichadi must be eaten thrice daily; it can be done from home.

 

What Are the Most Common Side Effects of Panchakarma?

 

This Ayurveda Panchakarma detox is only for some. If you are looking for an aggressive way to treat your health that may show quick results but might bring some damaging side effects in return, then Ayurveda or Panchakarma is not your treatment of choice.

Ayurveda is a highly effective line of natural treatment. Still, it may work slowly in different individuals, as Ayurveda treatment involves the Ayurvedic doctor understanding and diagnosing the root cause of the disease and eradicating the cause by cleansing the body and offering various Ayurvedic Medicines. Panchakarma is a part of the Ayurvedic Treatment that offers cleansing via the Ayurveda detox program.

 

Even though panchakarma detox can get fast results but it's not the quick start type. The person needs to be physically and mentally prepared to consider Panchakarma detox.

 

We are constantly exposed to an unbelievably polluted environment with millions of toxins daily. Everything we eat, the air we breathe, and the things we touch have a certain amount of pollutants. This is the primary reason people worldwide are becoming weaker daily instead of getting healthier.

Ayurveda, the traditional Indian Medicine science, brings us vast information on our daily diet and lifestyle choices that can help us enhance our immunity and fight these pollutants effectively.  The human body's immune system has a self-inherent detoxification ability to kill toxins. But because many pollutants get absorbed in our bodies, the healing system breaks down, causing severe illnesses in the long run.

 

Thus, adopting a practical body detox plan becomes essential to prevent the accumulation of harmful toxins in our body systems. If you are looking at cleansing and detoxing your body and want to try Ayurveda, the traditional Indian Medicines science, then Ayurvedic detox or Panchakarma Detox might be your choice of detox!  If not appropriately planned or its instructions are not followed correctly, Panchakarma can also cause different side effects. Side effects could vary from more loose motions than expected, headaches and feeling cloudy in the head during stage one, etc.

 

When and How Can I Detox My Body from Ayurveda Panchakarma Treatment?

 

When do you feel sluggish? Are you struggling with skin, chronic pain, or digestive or stress-related issues? If you are not If you are unable to concentrate effectively and feel tired, restless and unhealthy all the time, it may be time for body Panchakarma treatment detoxification.

 

Ayurvedic texts suggest that everyone should get panchakarma detoxification at least once or twice a year. Ayurvedic Practitioners may suggest Panchkarma detox at the change of the season to maintain the health of a healthy person or to specifically suggest Panchakarma detox as a part of an Ayurvedic Treatment plan and wanting to offer Ayurvedic Medicine to a clean body to enhance the effectiveness of these Indian herbs and medicines.

 

In the Ayurvedic way, Panchakarma Detoxification is preventative for those who are healthy and need to maintain and improve their cellular function and curative for those experiencing any disease or disorder. It plays a crucial role in cleansing the body of toxins, which are accumulated every day. Panchakarma detox opens up the body's energy paths, stimulates the circulation of body fluids, regulates the digestive systems, activates the lymphatic system, improves skin and body tone, strengthens muscles, bones, and blood vessels, and revitalizes the body's self-healing mechanisms.

 

 

What Can I Expect from Panchakarma?

 

The key to remaining healthy is awareness of self. Suppose you know your Ayurvedic Body constitution or Prakriti. In that case, you can stay alert to how your mind, body and emotions respond to the changing conditions in your environment and the numerous facets of your daily life, such as the food you eat. You can make informed choices to maintain good health. The Ayurvedic principle is simply eating the right food for your prakruti maintains vitality and balance, while eating the wrong kind creates an imbalance in the doshas.

When the doshas are aggravated because of frequent poor diet, unhealthy lifestyle, negative emotions, or other factors, they first affect Agni (the body's biological fire or metabolism, which governs digestion and assimilation). When Agni becomes weakened or disturbed, food is not digested correctly. The undigested, unabsorbed food particles accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract, becoming a toxic, sticky substance called Ama. This Ama clogs the intestines, overflows through other bodily channels such as the blood vessels, and infiltrates the bodily tissues, causing disease.

Ama is thus considered the root cause of disease in Ayurveda. It is referred to as a toxin in layman's language. The presence of Ama in the system can be felt as fatigue or physical or emotional heaviness. It may induce constipation, indigestion, gas and diarrhea, or it may generate lousy breath, a bad taste in the mouth, stiffness in the body, or mental confusion. Ama can most easily be detected as a thick coating on the tongue.

So after getting a proper and planned panchakarma treatment, one can expect the symptoms mentioned above of ama removal from the body. Also, one feels relaxed, calm, composed, grounded and organized. Five senses get sharper and more alert.

Should I use Ghee for Panchakarma?

This ghee may be infused with Ayurveda medicinal herbs, plain ghee, or clarified butter. However, individuals with high and uncontrolled blood levels of cholesterol, triglycerides and sugar might not use it (based on your Ayurvedic doctor's suggestion). Even if you are suitable to take ghee but you don't want to take it because of some dietary choices, or you are vegan, you can discuss other options with your Ayurveda Practitioner as alternatives like flax seed oil can be chosen if Ayurveda doshas allow doing so.

  • Highly recommend seeing Pooja for various womens health issues. Pooja offers long term alternative approaches to self managing one's health with the holistic ayurvedic system. Her manner and concern is sincere and she is very conscious of leaving you with the tools you need to take care of yourself beyond her consultations.

  • I was suffering from headaches for the past 5-6 years which lasted more than a day. Sometimes it was so severe that I had nausea and vomiting. Tried a lot of medications but they did not help. Then I thought of trying Ayurveda as my last remedy. 2 months with Gurnam Saini and I have no headaches. My sleep has also improved. I’m still continuing to improve my overall health as the medicine seems to work for me. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to improve their overall health and well being.

  • I strongly recommend Pure Herbal Ayurved Clinic to anyone who is looking into natural and organic health benefits. I consulted Ayurvedic Doctor Dr Gurnam Saini for hair loss treatment, as I had almost tried everything from expensive hair products to medicine for years and was highly disappointed. Dr Saini was very detailed and made me understand how lot of factors including my digestive fire, my sleep, my lifestyle etc. were directly impacting my hair health. I was highly impressed with his knowledge and his passion about getting me to understand the root cause. I clearly figured out how I was not in sync with my body. I am actually surprised that these organic ayurvedic medicines are very effective, as that was not my immediate expectation and I thought it will be a very lengthy process, but I was ready to give it a go! He also gave a me a specific ayurvedic organic hair oil to put on my scalp. It's been 3 months and I have almost completely stopped loosing hair and gaining more volume in my hair. I also found that taking shirodhara and nasya and head massage ayurvedic therapies of Dr Saini's recommendation was also important part of the treatment. I now feel more connected to my body and definitely my hair growth is visible to me and my family. Thank you Dr Gurnam Saini and Dr Pooja Saini (for those amazing therapies). You guys are working for a great cause.

  • I saw Dr Saini in July 2019 for “acid reflux” after suffering of months. I tried different medicines but didn’t work. There was a time I started believing that there was no permanent cure to this disease. Dr Saini is an authentic Ayurvedic doctor. He can do miracles for you. I honestly believe he’s a blessing for the city of Melbourne otherwise it would have been very hard to physically see an Ayurvedic doctor like him. My heart burn got worst with the time & became just unbearable. I couldn’t eat anything or sleep at all. Finally, I found him via google and peoples reviews convinced me to give him a call. He’s an angel & listens everything. He gave me a three month’s plan which I completed happily. But unbelievably my acid reflux reduced 80% within three days & completely gone in five days & it never came back since then. I’m so happy & enjoying my life like I used to. God bless Dr Saini & God bless those who wrote reviews which convinced me to give him a call first time.

  • Dr Saini has been so supportive in working with me to refine my mind, body and spirit to once again be able to consume gluten. Once I was diagnosed as gluten-intolerant, I thought I would never eat gluten again. But by embracing the ways of Ayurveda, I am now eating gluten on a daily basis that is pain free and discomfort free. Joseph Ferguson

  • Thank you Dr Saini for the remarkable improvement in my health since first seeing you only 3 months ago. With herbal supplements, herbal teas and a single panchakarma treatment I have already experienced the following benefits that western medicine had not been able to assist: * Lower blood pressure permitting a reduction in medication. * Reduced anxiety. * No dizziness or fainting following sudden exercise such as climbing stairs. * Eye floaters gone. * Persistent (2 year) cough almost gone. * Frequent reflux gone. With continued treatment and lifestyle changes I am looking forward to: * normal blood pressure without medication, * weight loss without strict diets, * cough gone!

  • I am very happy with the treatment and thankful for Dr.Saini. I was suffering from psoriasis for past 7 years. I never had such an improvement with any medications before. Psoriasis in my face was completed cleared in first 3 months. And almost 50% improvement in other places of my body in last one month. Ayurveda has a better impact on mind , body and soul rather than harmful anti immune tablets which is used as a medication for the condition. I really appreciate Dr.Saini for the his compassion.


    Balamuralikrishna S

  • Meeting Dr, Saini has been a blessing here in Melbourne. I've always believed in holistic health and I was looking for a practitioner who could not only treat some deficiencies but bring my health up to speed. Dr, Saini is an esteemed Doctor with years of experience in holistic healing globally. I had been in poor health this year however through Pachkarma and Pure herbal Ayurveda Clinic's treatments, there has been a transformation in my overall health, energy and spirit. Highly recommended if you want to transform your health holistically and want to get out of the rut of medications.
