Description

What is done in Panchakarma treatment? At the heart of a Panchakarma treatment are the five cleansing procedures. These are called Vaman, Virechan, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana. These terms stand for laxative measures, herbal enemas, vomiting therapies, nasal rinsing, and phlebotomy. Does Panchakarma really work? While we did not find evidence that overall quality of life was improved through the use of Panchakarma, as a program of behavior change, our preliminary results suggest that the complex intervention may be effective in assisting one's actual and expected adherence to new and healthier behavior patterns.
