Features of a wellness holiday in India
Ayurveda is popular in India - a method that involves the use of complex procedures, diets, natural medicines of mineral and herbal origin. The principle of Ayurveda is an individual approach to patients, and the basis of Ayurvedic procedures is “oiling” the body (fat-soluble toxins and poisons “bind” with medicinal oils, and then are excreted naturally).
The balance of the three doshas is of great importance for health - Kapha (stability of the body and its fluids), Vata (nervous system; control of all body movements), Pitta (responsible for digestion, absorption, metabolism, body temperature, intelligence, etc.), otherwise In the case of doshas, they can cause illness if they accumulate excessively in certain places. The treatment of these diseases is based on the impact on the doshas through appropriate methods.
Ayurvedic Panchakarma treatment
Panchakarma is a system of cleansing the body of toxins and restoring the natural balance in the body: it is carried out in 5 stages - cleansing through the nose, cleansing the intestines, emetic therapy, enemas (using oil and herbs), including using herbal decoctions. It should be noted that before this the body is "oiled" and subjected to thermal procedures.
