The Detox Program adheres to a traditional and authentic treatment system called Pancha Karma in Ayurveda. It is a comprehensive approach to purifying the body of toxins and also an effective means for healing the mind of stress, tension and many common issues of todays modern lifestyle. Every Detox Program is customized according to your health and wellness needs and to your dosha (mind-body) type as per the recommendations of Mas Vidal (Director & Head Practitioner). Each treatment series is structured and begins with preparation therapies done at home for 3-5 days prior to your first treatment. This is to prepare your body for the release of toxins. All the treatments are structured and require about 3 hours. The Pancha Karma Detox must begin with an Ayurvedic Consultation (charged separately) and we usually recommend beginning the daily treatments between 6am - 7am as this is an auspicious and effective time for healing and detoxification. Clients will then be finished between 9 - 10am, to shower, eat and begin there day relaxed and healthy.
