Detoxification



AYURVEDIC DETOXIFICATION:


Sree Chithra Ayur Home was built with the primary goal of offering a safe and enjoyable detoxification program of unquestionable and unparalleled result. We are very proud to offer you these detoxification and rejuvenation programs, sharing with you the oldest known medical system in the world, with pure, uncompromised value.
“Thanks to modern chemistry, eggs don’t stick to the pan, underarms are fresh all day, and SUV’s hit 60 in six seconds. But such convenience has a price: Chemicals that suffuse modern life – from well known toxins to newer compounds with unknown effects – are building up in our bodies and sometimes staying there for years.” (Article titled ‘The pollution within’ – ‘National Geographic’ Magazine, October 2006. Open the entire article by David Ewing Duncan in a separate window)
Toxins from chemicals in our food, our polluted environments, occasional drinking and smoking, stress and chemical medication all accumulate in our body over a period of time. These toxins are the cause of myriad diseases, and the effects of which are unfortunately anything but subtle. Western medicine has great difficulty removing fat soluble toxins safely and effectively from our body. Through the Ayurvedic Medical Science native to the Indian sub-continent, detoxification and rejuvenation is achieved with ‘Panchakarma’, which will not only facilitate the removal of these deep seated toxins, but do so with no negative side effects.
Removing these toxins and allowing your body to rejuvenate through Panchakarma requires a minimum of 7 nights. At Sree Chithra Ayur Home, we appreciate that no matter how much we may want to free ourselves of all of these toxins, we do not immediately have the time to do so.

So, the first step is to learn to relax the mind and focus on the specific areas of back pain. With practice, you can redirect the body’s energy and affect the pain. Among the Yogasanas, when there is pain, one should start with simple back-bends, such as Locust, Cat, and Sunbird. To keep the spine aligned practice Hero Pose.
Along with treatment, physiotherapy, organized lifestyle, vegetarianism, suitable physical exercises, yoga and meditation should be practiced. Ayurvedic treatment, a holistic approach for Rheumatoid Arthritis has been designed identifying the fact that the power of mind can overcome any physical aberrations.
