Ayurveda's mostcomplete path todetox & healing
Five classical therapies, practised exactly as the ancient texts describe them — guided by pulse diagnosis, personalised to your constitution, and delivered inside dedicated therapy rooms by physicians who have devoted their careers to this science.
“Panchakarma does not treat the illness alone — it restores the intelligence the body had lost.”
What is Panchakarma?
Panchakarma — literally “five actions” — is Ayurveda's classical detoxification protocol: a sequence of internal cleansing therapies designed to remove Ama, the accumulated toxic residue that Ayurveda holds responsible for disease, from deep within the tissues.
It is performed to reset the body's three governing forces — Vata, Pitta and Kapha — back to the balance unique to each individual. Where modern medicine often treats the symptom, Panchakarma is administered to correct the underlying imbalance that produced it.
No two protocols at Maitri Ayurveda are identical. Every course begins with a physician's assessment of your Prakriti and Vikriti, so that the therapies, oils, diet and duration are built entirely around you.
Who should consider Panchakarma?
These are among the conditions our physicians most often address as part of an individualised care plan. A consultation determines whether Panchakarma — and which therapies — is right for you.
Classical therapies for personalised healing
The five procedures below are the classical Panchakarma proper, each targeting a distinct channel of elimination. Two supportive therapies prepare the body and calm the nervous system alongside them.
Vamana
A physician-supervised cleansing procedure that clears excess Kapha from the upper digestive tract — most often indicated for respiratory and skin conditions rooted in Kapha imbalance.
Objective — Kapha clearanceVirechana
A controlled cleansing of the lower digestive tract used to clear excess Pitta — commonly considered for skin, digestive and liver-related concerns.
Objective — Pitta clearanceBasti
Regarded in the classical texts as the most powerful of the five karmas for pacifying Vata, administered through a carefully sequenced course of herbal oil and decoction enemas.
Objective — Vata correctionNasya
Medicated oils delivered through the nasal passage to clear the head and neck region — frequently used for migraine, sinus congestion and stress-related tension.
Objective — Cranial clearanceRaktamokshana
A precise, classically-defined procedure used selectively to address specific skin and localised inflammatory conditions, administered only where clinically indicated.
Objective — Tissue purificationAbhyanga
A rhythmic, warm-oil massage performed ahead of the main karmas to loosen toxins from the tissues and prepare the body for deeper cleansing.
Shirodhara
A steady, uninterrupted stream of warm medicated oil across the forehead, widely used to calm the nervous system and support restful sleep.

Real patient experiences
Shared in patients' own words. Individual experiences vary, and outcomes depend on your specific condition and constitution.
The consultation alone felt more thorough than anything I'd had before — the pulse diagnosis genuinely surprised me with what it picked up.
I appreciated how clearly every step of the Basti course was explained before it began. Nothing felt rushed.
Dr. Devika took the time to understand my whole routine, not just my symptoms. That's the difference here.
