The methodपञ्च · कर्म
Panchakarma means five actions.
Ayurveda reads health as a balance of three doshas: Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Panchakarma is its classical way to loosen what daily life has let build up, guide it out, and then rebuild. It runs in three stages, always in this order.

Iपूर्वकर्म
Preparing the body
PurvakarmaSnehana, oleation: medicated ghee taken in measured doses, and warm oil worked in through Abhyanga. Swedana, herbal steam in a traditional steam box, to warm the tissues and open the channels.

The cleansing karmas

A founder's note
Where does a city family go to feel the earth again?
I grew up in a family business in Gujarat, and today I spend most of my days as a partner at Befree, building teams in GIFT City, Ahmedabad, Chennai and Cebu. It is good work, and it is demanding. I see what long desk hours do to the people around me: stiff backs, tired eyes, minds that never quite switch off.
With my brother Aditya, I built Bliss Horse Riding Club near GIFT City so that families could find the slower rhythm of village life. This center comes from the same place. Ayurveda is one of India's oldest ways of looking after ourselves, and Panchakarma is its fullest expression. We wanted it close to home and done properly: genuine oils, experienced hands, and a physician in charge.
We also wanted it to be honest. We will never promise you a cure. We will listen, explain what the tradition offers, and look after you carefully while you give your body a little time.

Who should not have Panchakarma, or should wait?
Some therapies are not advised, or need adapting, during pregnancy or menstruation, with fever or infection, soon after surgery, or with certain heart, kidney or blood-pressure conditions.
