Panchakarma is ideally done once or twice a year, depending on your health condition, lifestyle, and body constitution (dosha). Many people choose to do it seasonally or during major lifestyle transitions to maintain balance and overall well-being.
Ayurveda can help manage a wide range of conditions such as digestive disorders, stress and anxiety, skin problems, joint pain, allergies, respiratory issues, hormonal imbalances, and chronic lifestyle diseases like diabetes and hypertension. It focuses on treating the root cause and restoring balance in the body.
After Panchakarma, you can expect improved digestion, better sleep, increased energy, mental clarity, and a sense of lightness in the body. Many people also experience relief from chronic ailments, reduced stress, and a stronger immune system. It leaves you feeling rejuvenated and balanced.
