Panchakarma, a cornerstone of Ayurvedic medicine, translates to “five actions” and represents a comprehensive detoxification and rejuvenation process. Rooted in tradition, Panchkarma aims to eliminate toxins (ama) and restore the balance of the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha), thus revitalising health and vitality.
Central to Ayurveda are the five elements—earth, water, fire, air, and ether—each embodying specific qualities and functions within the body. These elements combine to form the three doshas that govern our physical and mental health. Good health is maintained when these doshas are in balance, while imbalances can lead to illness. Panchakarma works to align the doshas by addressing the root causes of imbalance, often linked to poor diet, stress, and environmental factors.
