Programme Two

Monsoon Seasons (Karkidaka Chikitsa) Programmes

Specific seasonal treatments are designed for the Monsoon times as the humidity can imbalance the Tri Doshas of the body and create health struggles. The Ayurvedic treatments offered during these months include detoxification and rejuvenation therapies tailored to the Dosha–Dushya status of the patient. In conjunction with oil massage, we use Karkidakakanji / Oushada Kanji (a unique blend of herbs, spices and grains), to boost immunity, improve digestion, as well as detoxify and rebalance the body.
