Personalized medicine is a paradigm that has existed for as long as people have been practicing medicine. From Charaka to Hippocrates, everyone has used a customized approach to treat a broad spectrum of diseases. Prakriti-based medicine can play a pivotal role in this changing scenario of the global health management system through effective integration of omics. Ayurveda is built on the three pillars of Prakriti-based medicine namely ahara (diet), vihara (lifestyle), and aushadhi (medication), ultimately making Ayurveda a comprehensive and integrated system of medicine.
Prakriti-based medicine and other traditional medical systems in Ayurveda have the ability to provide solutions to a range of complex medical conditions. One of the noted among the Prakriti-based medicine is the Panchakarma treatment. Panchakarma treatment is an Ayurvedic treatment classified as an elimination or purgation therapy. An intensive and purifying course of treatment is offered in our Panacharkarma treatment center in Coimbatore, India at its highest quality. Panchakarma consists of five types of treatment to cleanse the body of toxins, restoring it to a state of purity and balance.
