First you will schedule a one hour consultation with our professional PanchaKarma therapist, for a casual question and answer session, as well as pulse diagnosis to determine your primary and secondary Doshas: Vata, Pitta, or Kapha, which then determines your treatment protocol. When the therapist begins your Panchakarma session, you will be gently but rapidly treated with a unique preparation of warm oils and detoxifying herbs. This stimulates the lymph system and begins detoxification of your largest eliminative organ - the skin. This prompts the action of detoxification for the liver and kidneys. Each session will vary from person to person depending on your degree of sensitivity, toxicity, and primary and secondary Dosha. For instance, a pumice stone of heated herbs and pumice theraphy may be used immediately on Kapha, while Pitta may not experience the use of pumice treatments at all. Each daily session takes approximately 45-60 minutes. Give yourself up to 30 minutes to shower and shampoo after each treatment. Bring shampoo and toiletries with you. It is best to schedule your treatments from 6am to 7pm. Generally Treatments are from sunrise to sunset only. For weekly cycles, the time of your session will not vary day to day. To enhance the process, attempt to reduce your social schedule as much as possible during your Panchakarma treatments, as this will enhance your process. Also attempt to avoid heavy and processed foods, including red meat, sugar, alcohol and caffeine. Increase your pure water intake to a minimum of 8 cups.
