Panchkarma Treatment:

These five procedures of eliminating the toxins from the human body are – Vamana, Virechana, Nasya, Basti, and Raktamokshana. This series of five processes helps to remove deep-rooted toxins from the body so that balancing the doshas of the body (energies that govern all biological functions in the human body).
According to Ayurveda, an individual’s natural state is one of health, happiness, and internal well-being. It means that the body is free from toxins, all organs function usually works, the mind is in harmony and the mental state is balanced and positive. Unfortunately, with the stress and pressures of daily life over time, toxins build up in the body causing both physical and mental disorders. Panchakarma can reverse these adverse effects and restore a natural state of health and wellness by cleansing the toxins from the body, restoring balance to the system, and improving bodily function.

In this state of relaxation, it is feasible to cleanse toxins from tissues as well as to release deeply held sentimental stress.
