Benefits of Panchakarma Therapy

Benefits of Panchakarma Therapy
In Ayurveda Panchakarma is considered the most important treatment that helps to
eliminate the vitiated doshas ‘the body toxins’.The word pancha karma first appears in
Charaka Samhitha Suthra Sthana’s 2nd chapter. It is described elaborately in Samhithas
like Charaka Samhitha, Susruth Samhitha, and Ashtanga Hrudaya.
“Sharirajanam Doshanam kramena Paramaushadham”(A.H. Su)
“Vamanam rechanam nasyam niruhashcha anuvasanam
Ethani Panchakarmani Kadhithani Muniswarai:”
As per Acharya Charaka Vamana, Virechana, Niruha Vasthi and Anuvasana Vasthi are the
pancha karmas. Susruth and Vagbhata include Raktha mokshana as the 5th Karma.
According to Ayurveda the three body vital elements are Vata, Pitta and Kapha. For
maintaining health and wellness, these ’three Doshas’ need to be well balanced. When
these get vitiated it leads to the building up of unwanted waste or Toxins in the body which
will result in different types of diseases. Through panchakarmas like Vamana, Virechana,
Vasthi etc it helps to eliminate the vitiated Vata, Pitta, and Kapha respectively. This helps in
the detoxification of the body and maintains good Health.
