What does Panchakarma mean?
Panchakarma is a Sanskrit term for the ayurvedic
process of detoxifying and purifying the body. The term
is derived from the root words, pancha, meaning "five,"
and karma, meaning "action," which refers here to the
five treatments.
The principles of panchakarma find mention in ancient
texts of the Vedic period. This 5,000-year-old practice
relieves illness, prevents relapse and promotes health. It
identifies the root cause of a problem and balances the
three doshas in the body.

Yogapedia explains Panchakarma
The five therapies of panchakarma that detoxify the
body are divided into three stages. These
are purva karma, pradhana karma and pashchatya kar
ma. Purva karma prepares the body to undergo
complete cleansing. The process involves external
application as well as ingestion of oils. Pradhana karma
involves five purification processes to eliminate toxins
from the system and balance the three doshas: vata,
pitta and kapha. Pashchatya karma helps to maintain
restored health by including diet and lifestyle changes.

Ayurveda is considered by many scholars to be the

oldest healing science. In Sanskrit, Ayurveda means
“The Science of Life.” Ayurvedic knowledge originated in
India more than 5,000 years ago and is often called the
“Mother of All Healing.” It stems from the ancient Vedic
culture and was taught for many thousands of years in
an oral tradition from accomplished masters to their
disciples. Some of this knowledge was set to print a few
thousand years ago, but much of it is inaccessible. The

principles of many of the natural healing systems now

familiar in the West have their roots in Ayurveda,
including Homeopathy and Polarity Therapy.
Your Constitution and Its Inner Balance
Ayurveda places great emphasis on prevention and
encourages the maintenance of health through close
attention to balance in one’s life, right thinking, diet,
lifestyle and the use of herbs. Knowledge of Ayurveda
enables one to understand how to create this balance of
body, mind and consciousness according to one’s own
individual constitution and how to make lifestyle changes
to bring about and maintain this balance.
Just as everyone has a unique fingerprint, each person
has a particular pattern of energy—an individual
combination of physical, mental and emotional
characteristics—which comprises their own constitution.
This constitution is determined at conception by a
number of factors and remains the same throughout
one’s life.
Many factors, both internal and external, act upon us to
disturb this balance and are reflected as a change in
one’s constitution from the balanced state. Examples of
these emotional and physical stresses include one’s
emotional state, diet and food choices, seasons and
weather, physical trauma, work and family relationships.
Once these factors are understood, one can take
appropriate actions to nullify or minimize their effects or

eliminate the causes of imbalance and re-establish

one’s original constitution. Balance is the natural order;
imbalance is disorder. Health is order; disease is
disorder. Within the body there is a constant interaction
between order and disorder. When one understands the
nature and structure of disorder, one can re-establish
order.
