Pancharakarma is preceded by
poorvakarma or pre-purification. The
body is ‘readied’ to let go of
toxins through swedanam and snehanam.
Swedanam means ‘sudation’ or
sweating. This procedure liquefies
toxins and increases their movement
into the gastrointestinal tract.
Snehanam, which follows, means
oleating the body. It helps toxins
to move towards the gastrointestinal
tract and makes tissues soft and
supple, thus helping to remove
stress and nourish the nervous
system. The doshas are now active. A
particular panchakarma is then given
according to theindividual’s
constitution and disorder.
Panchkarma is the classic five-point
revitalisation treatment that is
gaining worldwide fame these days.
Although Panchakarma is often
thought of as the entire procedure,
it is, in
fact, part of a group of therapies
belonging to a class of cleansing
procedures called shodhana. At
Kalari, the Panchkarma rejuvenation
process is intensive and closely
follows the early texts of Ayurveda
like the Charaka Samhita and the
Sushruta Samhita. Pradhana karma -
main procedure
There are five basic Shodhanas, or
cleansing methods.
1) Nasyam: Elimination of toxins
through the nose
2) Vamanam: Therapeutic vomiting
3) Virechanam: Purgation
4) Vasthy: Enema
5) Rakthamoksham: Detoxification of
the blood
This is followed by paschat karma or
postpurification measures, which
advises a diet and lifestyle that is
harmonious with one’s constitution.
