PRIME AYURVEDA TREATMENTS
Anti Ageing - Rasayana Chikitsa This Programme aims at keeping the enzymes in the tissue cells in their normal
functioning condition. The cells are revitalized and their composition is changed. The
nerves and bones are kept soft and smoothened; tranquillity of the mind is promoted.
This prevents the process of ageing and makes the individual free from diseases even
at an advanced age.
Ayurveda is not only a science, but also an art of appropriate living, which helps to
achieve longevity. It can guide every individual in the proper choice of diet, living habits
and exercise to restore balance in the body, mind and consciousness, thus preventing
disease. According to authentic Ayurvedic textbooks, rejuvenation must be done only
after detoxifying the body. In this Anti aging programme, the first 2 weeks are reserved
for a cleansing treatment to eliminate the toxins. Then, the rejuvenation treatments start,
with medicines and diet. Our programme is based on the prime treatment in Ayurveda
for reducing the aging processes, arresting the degeneration of the body cells and
increasing the immunity of the system.
Key therapies: Nasyam, Virechana, Vamana, snehavasthi or kashayavasthi depend
upon the constitution or dominant doshas along with some preparative treatments like
Pizhichil, pouch massages, different types of uzhichil [massage], Shirodhara, Sirovasti,
kayasekam etc. for purifying the body. Followed by this cleansing, there will be some
rejuvenating uzhichil [massage], uzhichil with special creams, Navarakizhi, Ksheera
Dhara, kashayadhara, udvardhanam, mukhalepam, thechukulli along with Rasayana
and a nourishing diet.
Anti Stress Programme
It is a proven fact that the mind plays an important role in governing not just the actions
we take, but their qualitative nature, i.e. how well or badly we act.
Anything which manipulates the mind will thus reflect on the body. People facing a lot of
stress from their hectic lives thus end up with not only mental, but a host of physical
problems too, usually called 'lifestyle diseases'.
Ayurveda, combined with Yoga offers the perfect answer for this. Key therapies: the
classical treatments like Uzhichil, Shirodhara, Sirovasthy, Nasyam, Kateevasthy,
Njavarakizhi, Sarvanga Dhara, Pichu, Thalam, Thalapothichil etc. are provided in its
authentic form. All these are supported by special Yoga therapies, herbal medicines and
herbal teas according to the constitution.
This programme is beneficial for those who are physically and mentally stressed, and/or
suffer from conditions like insomnia, lack of concentration, fatigue, tension headaches
and so on. It's also good for those who travel a lot, late night workers, I.T. professionals
and computer users in general.
General Rejuvenation
Panch karma is the classic 5-point revitalization treatment that's gaining worldwide fame
these days. Although Panchakarma is often thought of as the entire procedure, it really
is one part of a group of therapies belonging to a class of cleansing procedures called
'shodhana'. The other practices are
Poorva karma - Pre Purification Measures
Before the actual processes of purification begin, there is a need to prepare the body in
prescribed methods and encourage the body to let go of the toxins. The two procedures
are 'Snehana' and 'Swedana'. Snehana means oleating the body, helping the toxins to
move towards the gastrointestinal tract. It also makes the superficial and deep tissues
soft and supple, thus helping to remove stress and to nourish the nervous system.
Swedana means 'sudation' or sweating, which is followed by snehanam. This
procedure liquefies the toxins and increases the movement of toxins in to the
gastrointestinal tract. After this Snehana and swedanam, doshas become well 'ripened'.
A particular panchakarma is then given according to the individual's constitution and
disorder.
Pradhana karma - main procedure
There are five basic Shodhana, or cleansing methods.
- Nasyam Elimination of toxins through the nose
- Vamana - Therapeutic vomiting.
- Virechana - Purgation
- Vasthy - Enema
- Raktamoksha - Detoxification of the blood.
Paschat karma - post purification measures.
It is important to follow a diet and lifestyle that is harmonious with one's constitution. If
not patients could worsen their condition by suppressing the renewed healing energies.
The toxins may then directly enter cleansed tissues and go deeper than before. Some
things to avoid are loud talking, bumpy rides, long walks, excessive sitting and
excessive eating, if experiencing indigestion. Avoid eating unwholesome food, daytime
sleep and sexual indulgence in excess. Take 'Rasayana' to rebuild the damaged tissues
and to give a new level of strength and energy. Herbs and foods can be used
specifically to rebuild tissue layers and herbs also have a direct Rejuvenative effect on
the various organs and tissue layers.
