01What is Panchakarma?
Panchakarma is a group of classical Ayurvedic procedures. The term is often used in clinics for related preparatory and therapeutic treatments. The exact therapy, intensity and duration should follow an individual Ayurvedic and medical assessment.
02Therapies discussed at the clinic
Depending on suitability, options may include Snehan (oil application), Swedan (fomentation), Basti (medicated enema) and Shirodhara (a controlled stream of liquid over the forehead). These procedures differ in purpose, preparation and precautions. They are not a universal detox or a guaranteed cure.
03Check safety before you begin
Tell the doctor about pregnancy, acute illness, heart or kidney disease, blood pressure, diabetes, allergies, recent surgery and all medicines. Some procedures may need to be avoided, modified or delayed. A doctor must decide what is appropriate; an online service choice does not establish eligibility.
04Preparation and after-care
Ask what to eat, how to prepare, how long the visit will take and what activity or rest is advised afterwards. Follow the specific instructions given for your treatment. Report discomfort or unexpected symptoms promptly. Do not combine treatments or stop prescribed medicines without clinical guidance.
Food that fits your health
Any food guidance should fit your medical needs and the procedure being discussed. Diabetes, kidney disease or other restrictions can affect meal timing and fluid advice. Ask about practical arrangements before a session rather than following a generic detox diet from the internet.
Nutrition & everyday care →Activity, rest and routine
Ask whether there are procedure-specific rest or activity instructions. Tell the therapist and clinician about discomfort, heat intolerance, dizziness or changes in health. Follow-up should include a chance to discuss unwanted effects and whether the plan remains appropriate.
