Panchakarma
In Sanskrit Panchakarma means, ‘five therapies’. This is one of Ayurveda’s most renowned practices to rejuvenate the mind and body of an individual over days of treatment. Our human body naturally creates toxins and this production of toxicities worsens with the unhealthy food, polluted air, and stress that we encounter daily. Panchakarma helps you detoxify your system and live a more active and controlled life.
