Research on Panchakarma

As we enter into the Spring season it is nature's design to initiate an internal cleanse. Due to this process the liver is heating up to start the detox process and the body becomes more suseptible to a detoxifiction cold this time of year. This is an essential time of year to do some sort of cleansing. See the short home cleansing article in the library on this site. Panchakarma is also indicated this time of year as it is the most powerful rejuvenation and detox available. Not only does it remove physical toxins but emotional toxins as well. These are called "molecules of emotion" and they lodge themselves in our fat cells with other very toxic chemicals. During the 2-1/2 hours of panchakarma treatments which can be seven days or more in a row, we prescribe specific yoga - breathing and meditation exercises done 3-5 hours a day, special diet and process journaling that are designed to open the subtle body system and release mental and emotional patterns that hold us prisoners to our physical, mental and emotional imbalances. Here are some research highlights on the Panchakarma process:

Decreases cholesterol, by lowering toxic lipid peroxide levels l
Decrease the rate of platelet clumping and thus lymphatic congestion
• Decreases 14 major toxic and cancer causing chemicals from body tissues including heavy metals, pesticides and other hazardous environmental chemicals

• Lowered diastolic blood pressure
• Reduced free radicals which are the leading cause of all disease, cancer and death
• Significant reductions in bodily complaints, irritability, bodily strain, and psychological inhibition, as well as greater emotional stability.
