Panchakarma — Ayurveda's deepest reset

Panchakarma is a classical five-action detoxification programme from Ayurveda. It works to clear accumulated toxins, rebalance the three doshas, and restore the body’s natural rhythm so healing can take root from the inside out.

It is used to lift fatigue, reset metabolism, improve immunity, ease stress, and address long-running lifestyle disorders that haven’t responded to symptomatic care alone.

Every programme has three phases — preparation (Purvakarma), the main therapy (Pradhana karma), and recovery (Paschat karma). Each phase is led by an MD-Ayurveda physician with daily monitoring.

Adults of most ages can benefit after a doctor’s assessment. It is generally avoided during pregnancy, acute infection, or other situations the physician will identify in the consultation.

Pricing depends on the therapies prescribed, the length of stay, and the conditions being addressed. We share a personalised plan during your free consultation.
