PANCHAKARMA CURE PROGRAMME
The aim of the Panchakarma cure programme is to bring you back into contact with yourself and your health during an intensive treatment process.
Pancha Karma means "five actions" and describes the unique interaction of the five traditional treatments to activate the self-healing powers, regulate the metabolism and detoxify and maintain the health of body and mind.
During the course of the treatment, I will guide you in a caring and professional manner so that you can understand the connections and interactions of your being, become completely at one with yourself and heal.
Through the intensive detoxification techniques during the Panchakarma treatment, the tailored diet, the detoxifying therapies and daily oil massages, your body is cleansed of its accumulated toxins and metabolic waste products and the excess "doshas" and symptoms of illness are removed. In addition, plenty of rest and guided yoga will create a safe space for personal contemplation.
During the Panchakarma treatment, you will receive comprehensive care. After a thorough initial consultation, we work together to customise a programme of treatment according to your individual needs.

Procedure of a Panchakarma cure programme
A detailed medical history is a requirement for a Panchakarma programme, whether for maintaining health or for chronic illnesses. In addition to a thorough initial consultation with a constitutional analysis and pulse and tongue diagnosis, I will also discuss the type and duration of the treatment with you at this meeting. All therapies are individually tailored to you and your needs and possibilities.
Pre-treatment
The preparatory treatments of Panchakarma include above all the internal and external application of oils and fats (e.g. ghee), as well as special heat and steam applications, in which parts of the body or the entire body is made to sweat dry or in steam or with special pads.
Main treatment
During the elimination phase, the excess Doshas are eliminated from the body at their main sites. Depending on the medical indication, a selection of the following Panchakarma elimination procedures is used:
- Virecana: therapeutic laxation
- Niruha Basti: cleansing enema with liquid herbal decoctions
- Matra Basti: nourishing enema with medicated oils
- Nasya: herbal preparations and medicated oils given through the nose
- Vamana: therapeutic vomiting
Depending on the personal situation, other special therapeutic measures from Ayurvedic medicine are also used (e.g. eye rinses/ Netra tarpana, stamp treatments/ Pinda Sveda, etc...).
During the Panchakarma programme, the diet is also tailored to the different phases of the treatment and to your personal needs.
Post-treatment
This is followed by a phase of regeneration in which you need plenty of rest. As your digestive fire (Agni) is weakened by the detoxification, it needs to be slowly regenerated. With a special balanced diet, you will first get used to digesting solid food again until you can eat normal constitutionally appropriate foods.
After the treatment, I recommend that you do not immediately go back to your busy everyday life, but allow yourself some time to "arrive back home". It is also beneficial to integrate the recommendations for strengthening the body into your everyday life so that the Panchakarma therapy can unfold its full power.
You have the option of spending the night in peace and quiet in a neighbouring accommodation. I will be happy to provide you with a list of a selection of holiday flats.
