The Yoga Awareness Panchakarma retreat is a consecutive series of

Ayurveda PANCHAKARMA treatments are the application of medicated oils applied to specific areas of the body and the depending on the specific needs of a person we apply one of the five purification methods ~ nyasam, vamana, vasti, virecana, rakta mokshanam.

Yoga works at a therapeutic level of releasing tension, aligning your spine moving prana (energy) throughout your entire body. The Yoga practice is an excellent combination with your Ayurvedic treatments, like brother and sister these healing modalities are inseparable.
