Panchakarma is like a complete system reboot...and no, I'm not talking about computers. With roots delving thousands of years into the soil of traditional Ayurvedic practice in India, the word "panchakarma"
literally translates from Sanskrit as five actions. Although the exact actions may vary, panchakarma is an ancient series of cleansing practices and curative medicinal interventions orchestrated for treating specific diseases, removing toxins and waste products, decreasing stress, and returning balance to the body. Similar treatments have been in use for centuries throughout the world, including Egypt, Greece, Mesopotamia, and South America. These panchakarma practices are now becoming updated and incorporated into modern medical settings, holistic health centers, and spas worldwide.
Take care!
