Each season has its way of healing. Of these, monsoon is a unique one in Ayurveda. Karkidakam month in Malayalam (which comes within the rainy season) is the best time to engage in more rigorous detox and rejuvenation. As a leading holistic wellness center in Kerala, Amara provides traditional treatments and seasonal procedures that follow the rhythm of nature to create balance and energy within you.
Karkidaka Chikitsa are Ayurvedic treatments done during this special monsoon time. The humidity facilitates the absorption of herbal oils and remedies by opening the body's channels. The body is more open during this time to internal cleaning, stress elimination, and building immunity. It is also when dosha imbalances of Pitta and Vata become more prevalent, usually resulting in tiredness, indigestion, joint discomfort, and low immunity. To address elements of this, we provide affordable Ayurveda packages in Kerala that are seasonal and will help you better address your health challenges. A typical seasonal Ayurveda package can include detoxification and traditional Panchakarma cleansing, herbal oil massage (Abhyangam), steam treatment (Swedana), and dietary support with a medicinal rice gruel (Karkidaka Kanji). Each aspect is designed by expert practitioners to purify, revitalize, and nourish your physical and mental health.
Karkidaka Chikitsa at Amara is an experience. We bring the healing practices of Ayurveda together with the tranquil surroundings of our sustainable retreat. Organic herbal oils, tried-and-true methods and procedures, and treatments derived from years of Ayurvedic medical knowledge are all used in each therapy. We offer daily yoga, pranayama, and meditation as an authorized yoga and Ayurveda center Kerala as part of your Karkidaka treatment programs. Yoga, pranayama, and meditation improve digestion and calm the mind; they also help you remain steady as the monsoon brings temporary weather changes.
Our Ayurvedic experts take into consideration your dosha constitution and provide recommended treatments accordingly. During Karkidaka Chikitsa, some of the treatment options are:
Panchakarma—a 5-step detoxification cleansing that rebalances internally.
