PANCHAKARMA & DETOX PROGRAMS

 

Sanjevani specializes in offering a unique Ayurvedic detoxifcation program called Panchakarma which is an ancient traditional detoxification process from India.  The purpose of Panchakarma is to rid the body of accumulated toxins (ama) in order to prepare it for rejuvenation and healing (which can only occur once the toxins are removed). Panchakarma includes a series of therapeutic massages and treatments utilizing pure sesame or coconut oils and medicinal herbs along with a basti (oil and herbs enema) daily, dietary recommendations with Ayurvedic based food provided, yoga, pranayama, meditation as well as educational classes daily.  It is a time to dedicate oneself to quiet relaxation and meditation so the body is able to do its work during the cleansing period. This program is recommended at the change of each season.

 

Panchakarma includes an Integrative Medicine consultation with a Sunil Pai, MD whose emphasis is

in Ayurveda and Panchakarma.  A plan of treatment, specifically tailored to your constitution, will be

formulated.  Only organic oils and organic herbs during are used in the  treatments which are

formulated to various medical conditions.  The program is also an "Integrative" Pancharkarma 

program where we also may recommend custom formulated nutritional supplements, homeopathics 

and other modalities such as energy medicine (Reiki, marma therapy), sound healing and use 

of specialized medical aromatherapy.  It is from our experience that using an Integrative approach

leads to the best results than using only one modality alone.  The program is deiivered in a "spa-like" enviornment and most importantly we are able to deliver the bastis directly rather than give 

them to you to take home as with other centers. 

 

Panchakarma may be done in a preliminary 3 day period, 5 days, 7 days or up to 21 days

depending upon one’s condition and availability.  See Pancharkarma in the Ayurvedic section

of our Massages & Treatments for more information or call us for more details.

COLD & FLU SOLUTIONS

Keep yourself healthy and avoid getting the flu with natural effective remedies available at Sanjevani.  We offer GUNA FLU, the most widely used natural product for prevention of flu in Italy.  Now it is available here in ABQ.   Taking this medically effective flu remedy has been shown in clinical studies to prevent the flu (performed better in preventing the flu versus the flu shot) and also was shown to provide a synergistic effect along with those who received the flu shot in avoiding the flu.  If you do not want the flu shot or if you already had the flu shot and need extra protection (since the flu shot only prevents a small number of flu viruses), come in and talk to us about the variety of options for preventing and treating colds and flu this season.

We also carry a variety of natural and effective products for cough & cold symptoms and products to help strengthen your immune system and prevent infections such as our Sanjevani Immune Formula.
