PK Cleanse

Ayurveda
Ayurveda is the science of prevention, health, and longevity. The goal of Ayurveda is to create within your body, mind, and spirit an optimum environment for healing to take place. Optimum health occurs when you recognize the elements that make up your body and how to use holistic techniques to bring those elements into balance.

Panchakarma
Pancha Karma focuses on eliminating emotional and physical toxins at a deep-seated level. During your 10 day cleanse, we give your digestion a break by eating Kitcharee, a complete protein of basmati rice and mung beans. Oil, eaten internally and applied externally to the skin acts as a carrier for the toxins to move into the digestive system to be eliminated. Herbs and spices are an important part of Pancha Karma, helping the body to release the toxins and digest them with ease. To complete the cleanse, you will purge the toxins from your body, further cleanse the colon with an oil enema, and slowly reintroduce your diet with the intention of eating healthy for 30 days to rejuvenate completely.

There is a lot of information on the internet about this type of cleanse, the above was taken from a PK plan designed for a friend of mine by an Ayurvedic Consultant: Shiela Barnett CMT, CAS, PKS, Owner © Lighthouse Massage and Health Spa 850 North Lake Blvd, Ste 20A Tahoe City, Ca 96145-5546 © 530-583-8100

I am not so sure about the emesis elimination or the final basti elimination with the help of an enema but the in between part I am willing to give it a whirl.

  • The whole oil enema thing sounds way too intense for this old style pooper!

    Let me know if you try a PK...I'm curious to know how the Kitcharee tastes!
