About
Panchkarma
The
pre-procedures are called ‘Poorva Krama’ and consists of
digestion (Pachana), oleation (Senehan), fomentation (Swedan).Basic
objective of "Panchakrama" (Five internal detoxification
procedures) is to remove the excessive accumulated toxins,
which causes the vitiation of ‘Dosha’ (fault). If any
‘dosha’ is imbalanced, either due to environment or
dietary factors it is often difficult to be normalised
with diet and drugs alone. Actual ‘Panchakrama’ procedures
are always preceded and succeeded with specialised
procedures. If used as therapeutic measure they can be
done at any time of the year, i.e., at the time the
disease occurs. If one uses it as a preventive measure, it
should be used at the appropriate time for each ‘Dosha’.
