These next few days I will be studying with some other Pancha Karma therapists to go over different cases they are treating at the moment. It is great for practice to see first hand other therapists working on patients. It provides invaluable clues to why the mind and body accumulate disease and how to treat these issues.
Pancha Karma is a type of cleansing and building therapy used in Ayurveda to promote the health of the body or treat disease. It can be used for preventative as well as curative measures. It consists of either cleansing the body of toxins, which are obstructing the different channels and humors of the body or building the body up due to debility of different tissues.
These therapies have such a long history of use and have been tried and tested for the last 5000 years. As the body is natural it needs natural therapies to bring it back into balance. These therapies consist of oiling the inside and outside of the body, sweating the body, pouring oils on the affected areas, cleaning of all the orifices and taking herbal medications to clear all channels.

Treatments last anywhere from 7 to 21 days depending on the severity of the cleansing or building therapies. People who are more of a vata (air element) constitution generally need building up as the body tends to be very dry or weak and kapha (earth element) constitution is heavy and needs cleansing of excess fat in the body. Pitta (fire) needs a little of both to cool the body down and bring the agni (digestive power) back to normal. These therapies and treatments are very powerful and can cure most all diseases depending on the age, stage of disease and karma of a person.
On the website there is more about these therapies and their benefits. Treat your body kindly by feeding it natural live foods.
