Pañchakarma at Home

Pañchakarma can give a person their life back in exchange for 2-4 weeks of dedicated time, attention and energy per year. One application is rarely enough for long-lasting positive effects. Instead, it should be considered an annual practice during middle age (18 to 70 years) to prime the body for regenerative Āyurvedic medicine, as recommended in classical Āyurvedic medical literature.

Eligible candidates must first be screened, and then can be properly prepared for 1 to 12 months prior to perform certain types of Pañchakarma on themselves at home.

Learn more about Āyurvedic medical Pañchakarma in the new publication, The Complete Guide To Virechana. All myĀyu members can access an early, digital copy of the complete book, included in their membership.

To participate in Pañchakarma at home, first learn about the options and determine if you will do Mini Virechana or Complete Virechana.

Mini Virechana

Understand that this procedure is typically performed in an Āyurvedic hospital or residential clinic, under supervision of an Āyurvedic Doctor. All instructions must be followed correctly. Prepare to be fully involved in the process and participate with complete, undivided attention. In case of a medical emergency, you must be ready to go to the nearest emergency room immediately.

Preparation
1. Be a myĀyu Complete Plan member for at least 1 month before starting Mini Virechana. In many cases, 2-3 months are required to fully prepare.
2. Purchase additional supplies and formulations separately.
Procedure
1. Have 7 days ready to dedicate to the process.
2. Meet with Jessica Vellela, BAMS, daily during the process.
3. Complete detailed, online tracking information and records.
Follow-up
1. Continue your myĀyu Complete Plan membership for at least 2 months after finishing.
2. It generally takes anywhere from 5 to 30 days for all changes to appear in the body and mind, and formulations are almost always required during this time.

Complete Virechana

Understand that this procedure is typically performed in an Āyurvedic hospital or residential clinic, under daily supervision of a team of Āyurvedic Doctors, nurses, therapists and supportive staff who coordinate and manage the details of complex care. There is little to no room for error. All instructions must be followed correctly. Prepare to be fully involved in the process and participate with complete, undivided attention.

In case of a medical emergency, you must be ready to go to the nearest emergency room immediately.

Preparation
1. Be a myĀyu monthly plus member for at least 3 months before Complete Virechana. In many cases, 3-12 months are required to fully prepare.
2. Purchase additional supplies and formulations separately.
Procedure
1. Dedicate 14 to 21 days for Complete Virechana only (no work or other commitments).
2. The start date will be planned and estimated, but may vary by a few days based on your body's signs of being ready.
3. Meet with Jessica Vellela, BAMS, daily during the process.
4. Complete detailed, online tracking information and records on a daily basis.
Follow-up
1. Continue your myĀyu monthly plus membership for at least 3 months after finishing.
2. It generally takes anywhere from 40 to 180 days for all changes to appear in the body and mind, and formulations are required during this time.

01.

WHAT IS Pañchakarma (PK)?

Āyurvedic medical Pañchakarma is the removal of deep, stored pollutants from the body (the doṣhas), similar to surgery but without the tools. It requires putting the body, mind and emotions into a controlled state of sickness over a period of 5 to 20+ days, depending on the procedure.

02.

IS Pañchakarma (PK) SAFE?

PK carries risk and must be performed under direct guidance of an Āyurveda Āchārya, or Āyurvedic Doctor, who is trained in India, Nepal or Sri Lanka, for a minimum of 5.5 years full-time. In India, hospital-grade, Āyurvedic medical PK is incredibly powerful and interrupts pathology, reverses and cures disease.

03.

WHO CAN DO Pañchakarma (PK)?

In India, candidates are screened by an Āyurvedic Doctor for eligibility. Most require an initial preparation for the body, digestion, mind and emotions for the intensity of the procedure. Classically, PK is recommended for everyone from 18 to 70 years for annual prevention of acute and chronic disease.
