Why is Ayurveda Panchakarma the best way to detoxify?

By: Nimba - June 9, 2021

Ayurveda is a 5000-year science that has evolved over the time and has shown us a healthy way of living life. Ayurveda has revealed itself to be one of the most beneficial practices ever known to mankind for the betterment of mankind. Over the years we have seen many practices under the domain of Ayurveda, and Panchkarma is of the most eminent among them all. 

Panchkarma, as the name indicates, is a five-step process for detoxification & rejuvenation of the entire human body.  Ayurveda Panchkarma has a lot of long-lasting health benefits for the body like eliminating toxins and eradicating impurities. 

Significance of Panchkarma:

Ayurvedic Treatments have been divided into two parts- Samshodhana Chikitsa & Samshaman Chikitsa.

Panchkarma is a part of Samshodhana Chikitsa or Bio-Cleansing Therapy. Not only does Panchkarma cleanses your body and blood, but it improves your immunity too. According to Ayurveda, a body which is clean and pure on the inside, is equally pure on the outside. Hence, Panchkarma balances your doshas and flushes out the harmful toxins that exist within. The effects of Panchkarma with respect to removal of toxins and disease-causing impurities, are very long lasting. 

The traditional Panchkarma is a 5-stage cleansing process which includes:

Vamana: Therapeutic vomiting/ Emesis

The cleansing of toxins and poisons from the body via vomiting and Ayurvedic therapies

Basti: Enema

The ayurvedic therapy done with herbal oils

Virechana: Purgation

The procedure of cleansing toxins through the bowels thus cleaning the guts and purifying the body

Nasya: Elimination of toxins through the nose

A natural cleansing technique where the cerebral area gets pain-free by nasal drops regulated in nostrils.

Rakhta Mokshan: Detoxification of the blood

This therapy purifies the blood by getting rid of the root of many major diseases. 

These 5 stages constitute the Ayurveda Panchkarma therapy which delivers effective results to improve and enhance longevity of the human body. The entire therapy lasts for 5 to 21 days depending upon the stay of the patient. 

Why should one choose this therapy?

In living our lives to the fullest, our body goes through physical labour, mental labour, wear and tear of muscles and tissues, unsuitable diet habits and much more. All these factors deteriorate the condition of the human body every day.

There are multiple impurities and toxins that get developed inside the body due to such factors. These impurities ultimately harm the body in the longer run. 

A cleansing of the body is necessary with passage of time. This cleanse is mainly to eradicate the harmful toxins and impurities that the body has collected over the time. These impurities tend to convert into causes for diseases if not removed the body at the right time. Panchkarma is a therapeutic treatment that should be done yearly to kill root causes of numerous diseases. 

At Nimba Nature Cure, the Panchkarma therapy aims to an overall transformation and cleanse of the human body by adapting to a healthy way of living life. 

Benefits of the Ayurveda Panchkarma Therapy:

While the list of benefits of Ayurvedic Therapies is endless, the Ayurveda Panchkarma at Nimba Nature Cure has numerous offerings for its clients. 

Some of the benefits of Ayurveda Panchkarma include:

Balance Of Doshas:

An imbalance of doshas can result in abnormal responses from the body. This therapy brings harmony and balance between the doshas.

Boosted Immunity:

With the root cause of multiple diseases removed from the body, the immunity levels tend to rise.

Efficient Digestive System:

With the release of harmful toxins from the body, the digestive system is clear and ready to function better.

Weight Loss:

A master cleanse of the body via ayurvedic therapies can also help you decrease the excess weight.

Reduction in Stress Levels:

The relaxation and rejuvenation that comes with stress relief is indeed something that you should look forward to.

Anti-Aging and Lustrous Skin:

The cleansing properties of the Panchkarma therapy aid in improving the quality of the skin.

During the Ayurveda Panchkarma, there are certain guidelines and plans that are to be followed. Some of these guidelines include:

The body should get enough rest, and the strenuous activities should be avoided.

Unhealthy foods and drinks should be avoided as the digestive fire inside the body is at rest.

Easy-to-digest foods such as Khichdi should be a part of your diet. Ayurveda Panchkarma is a very precise treatment and should be performed by a trained practitioner and Nimba Nature Cure gives you just that.

Udvartana Therapy: Choose the Ayurvedic Way of Treating Obesity at Nimba

Udvartana Therapy: Choose the Ayurvedic Way of Treating Obesity at Nimba

By: Nimba - January 29, 2021

When the realisation of obesity strikes, people tend to take every measure possible to shed that extra fat. From falling in the trap of sauna fits to opting for a full-fledged surgery, there is no stone left unturned to achieve a healthier body type. However, in the furore trying different obesity solutions, most of the obese patients end up feeling dissatisfied and frustrated. This is why proper guidance is important.

If you are a follower of Ayurveda and wish to adhere to Ayurvedic methods to cure your problem of obesity, then you have come to the right place. An important therapy in Ayurvedic obesity and weight reduction programmes, Udvartana is the prime solution to treat obesity and address issues of being overweight. Moreover, Udvartana is not a sporadic treatment. It can be included in your dincharya and can be performed daily.

The term ‘Udhvarthanam’ comes from the Sanskrit words ‘Urthdhva’, which means upward and ‘Varthanam’, which means movement or motion. In Udvarta, an invigorating full-body massage is done in a rhythmic upwards motion, against the growth of the body hair. The massage is done using a herbal powder or pastes made of stimulating ingredients such as harad, bibhitaki, amla, deodar, senna, kulthi and others. Apart from treating obesity, Udvartana is largely recommended for diabetic neuropathy, paralysis, sciatica and indigestion as well. The rhythmic massage tones the muscles and improves blood circulation. Additionally, it also dissolves excessive fat from the body and nourishes the skin thoroughly.

The herbal powder or paste is briskly rubbed on the entire body for 30 to 45 minutes. The powders used are dry in nature and hot in potency. If a paste is used instead of powder, sesame oil is preferred, which is hot in potency as well. These herbs remove blockages and stiffness in the body. The rhythmic upward motion opens the pores, increases heat in the tissues and stimulates the fat metabolism that pulls away excess fat from the body.

The panel of experienced Ayurved at Nimba Nature Cure Village ensures that the patient’s obesity is cured in the best way possible with Udvartana therapy. At Nimba, you can experience the most holistic wellness treatment of Udvartana that not only reduces weight but also de-stresses and relaxes the body.

The Powerful Healing Benefits of Naturopathy

The Powerful Healing Benefits of Naturopathy

The Powerful Healing Benefits of Naturopathy

By: Nimba - January 18, 2021

Nature is truly miraculous and has the power to heal the human body and mind in the most ingenious ways. The wondrous elements of nature have unparalleled medicinal properties. It bears the capability to cleanse the body and soul from within instead of relying on providing temporary cures. Although the mainstream, western healthcare system ruled the world for quite some time, people have now begun to revisit the roots of natural healing remedies.

The school of medicine that gathers these remedies together is Naturopathy. Holistic well-being is Naturopathy’s utmost priority, and its major aspects involve prevention, cure, and promotion of wealth. It strives to strike a balance between your mind and body’s well-being and it provides it with the innate power to heal itself. It focuses on diving deep into the roots of the problem and then finding an effective solution to cure it completely, rather than curing it at a superficial level. There are several healing benefits of Naturopathy and it’s a practice that people should consider the following.

It focuses on disease prevention

Naturopathy focuses on uprooting the problem from its root cause and identifying the underlying reason for the condition. It not only heals the condition or ailment, it also provides ways and mechanisms to minimize or prevent the illness. As the saying goes, prevention is better than cure, the practice of Naturopathy is based exactly on this principle. It tries to devise ways to prevent the condition before it worsens.

It uses traditional and natural therapy treatment methods

Naturopathy utilizes the body’s self-healing properties to cure any illness. This means that the chances of developing any side effects are almost negligible. Unlike western medicines, here, the entire body is examined including the lifestyle of the person, mental well-being, nutrition and eating habits, sleep pattern, etc. after which treatment is recommended to the person by a naturopath.

It brings self-awareness to a person

The process of Naturopathy helps a person connect to their inner-self and gives them the ability to comprehend mind, body, and thoughts better. When a person gets to know their own body in a better way, they begin to understand it’s language and what it is trying to communicate. Eventually, the person can begin listening to their own body’s problems. Hence, it increases the self-awareness of a person and brings about an amalgamation of physical, emotional and spiritual wellness.

It works in synchrony with western medicines

Since Naturopathy does not essentially have side effects, it can work well with western medicines, if guided accurately. Western medicines can provide instant relief while traditional healing remedies like Naturopathy can work alongside to cure the problem of its roots.

The trained Naturopaths at Nimba Nature Cure Village always focus on restoring natural body functions by trying to get the body to heal itself. With their expertise in traditional healing remedies, they assist in the natural healing ability of the patient’s body. Naturopathy is a highly personalized treatment process, where one makes self-care decisions along with restoring techniques to heal. The experts at Nimba study the patient’s physical, emotional and mental background before recommending treatment to them. This not only helps in solving the problem at the moment but also prepares the body to fight against other diseases in the future.

Experience the Power of Shirodhara Ayurvedic Treatment at Nimba

Experience the Power of Shirodhara Ayurvedic Treatment at Nimba

By: Nimba - December 11, 2020

An ancient science, shirodhara treatment Ayurveda originated in India centuries ago. It focuses on restoring the balance of the life forces called doshas in the body. There are three doshas, namely Vatt (wind), Pith (bile) and Kapha (phlegm), and Ayurveda brings a balance amongst these three.

A blend of two Sanskrit words, “Shiro” (meaning: head) and “Dhara” (meaning: flow), Shirodhara Ayurvedic Treatment is an essential healing technique in the field of Ayurveda. In Shirodhara treatment, a liquid such as oil, milk, buttermilk or water is poured with a controlled consistency onto the forehead. Generally, the treatment concludes with a relaxing scalp or head massage.

Shirodhara treatment has a very calming effect on the mind and body. It relaxes the person and has a soothing effect on the mind. Research has also found that it can improve sleep quality, deal with insomnia better, and also reduce stress and anxiety. Moreover, this treatment is considered to be additionally beneficial during the winter months, for it brings a beneficial balance in the body, making it a remarkable winter therapy.

First, you will be asked to lie down on your back and relax. Then, the liquid you choose for your Shirodhara will be heated to match your body temperature which will then be placed in a bowl with a hole in it. This bowl is either hung by a stand or held by the practitioner over your head.
The heated liquid will drip through the hole in the bowl in a way that it lands between your eyebrows. If you want, this treatment can be followed by a massage. Shirodhara treatment approximately lasts for 30 to 90 minutes and is extremely relaxing.

The most popular oil used in Shirodhara treatment is sesame oil because it is neutral and mixes well with essential oils. However, you can choose coconut oil, kseerabala oil, mahanarayan oil or clarified butter as an alternative, and if you do not want to use any oil altogether, you can opt for water, coconut water, animal milk or buttermilk. Additionally, your practitioner may mix a variety of essential oils or ayurvedic herbs for a better healing process.

If you have an allergy or any skin sensitivity, inform your practitioner beforehand. We hope this information helped you and you get the best Shirodhara treatment for yourself.

Based on the studies conducted on a handful of people for the effect of Shirodhara treatment, it has been observed that there are no negative effects of it. Which means that even if it doesn’t benefit you in terms of stress reduction or anxiety reduction, it will help you in calming your mind and soothing your body.

At Nimba, the science of Ayurveda is taken with utmost seriousness. Our experts delve into the emotional, psychological, physical, and spiritual traits of the patient during the treatment that would bring them in harmony.

We welcome our visitors to experience holistic healing at a deeper level with the power of Ayurvedic Shirodhara treatments.

Conquer Every Musculoskeletal Problem with Nimba

Conquer Every Musculoskeletal Problem with Nimba

Conquer Every Musculoskeletal Problem with Nimba

By: Nimba - November 20, 2020

Merriam Webster defines ergonomics as “an applied science concerned with designing and arranging things people use so that the people and things interact most efficiently and safely.” It is also known as biotechnology, human engineering, human factors.

The development of a civilisation is not a coincidence. When you pause to look at your surroundings, you will notice that every little man-made item is designed to fit the needs of a person perfectly. This ranges from the size of a cell phone, the handle of a mug, to the structure of a room. Every item crafted is backed by the formation as well as capabilities of the human body.

Therefore, when the term ergonomics is in the discussion, the mere use of a product is not enough, for it deals with the entire procedure of designing and arranging products, systems and places in a way that makes it the best fit for a human being who uses it.

However, sadly, no matter how much we perfect the science of Ergonomics, as human beings, we tend to be reckless when it comes to our postures and the ability to adjust according to the ergonomic designs. Frequent repetitive motion tasks, awkward postures, forceful movements, stress, and poor setups are some of the main ergonomic problems. This leads to issues in the body such as discomfort, pain and swelling in joints, cramps, numbness, reduced range of motion in shoulders, neck and back, amongst several other problems. Eventually, this creates musculoskeletal disorders that are difficult to cure over the long term.

The musculoskeletal system creates a magnificent framework of the body. It enables the body to move around freely as well as holds all the organs in its right place. Ergonomic problems can cause intense injuries to the musculoskeletal system which causes several complications.

At Nimba, your wellbeing is our utmost priority. Therefore, we provide numerous Naturopathy therapies like Abhyangam treatment, Udhvartan, Deep Tissue Massage and Reflexology which helps in curing the aforementioned musculoskeletal issues, especially arthritis.

The purpose of these therapies is multi-fold. Every problem is studied in detail and each of our therapy has a healing procedure specifically dedicated to it. For example, an ayurvedic diet, massages and yogasanas are essential in curing osteoarthritis, whereas sciatica demands hot/cold ice packs, acupuncture, potli massage and reflexology to heal completely.

Here, we responsibly take your hand through the entire procedure so you can leave our Nature Cure Village feeling healthy, happy, and healed.

We welcome you to a safe haven where you can begin a healthy life, free of any ergonomic complications. We welcome you to Nimba.

In these difficult times of the global pandemic, our lives have changed drastically. The amount of stress has increased at a faster rate now as compared to the earlier times. The mental health of people has also been affected due to this. People who are unaffected by the virus and the people who have recovered, both are facing a lot of mental tensions. Various studies also showed that people who have recovered face a lot of trauma and stress for the initial months of recovery. Hence, it has become extremely important for everyone to take out time from their schedules for relaxation.

 

The Shirodhara treatment helps in calming down the mind and the nervous system. It eases mental and emotional stress and enables clarity by letting one experience ultimate bliss. The Shirodhara treatment is one of the steps of the Panchkarma, a classical Ayurveda therapy. The name is derived from the Sanskrit language, where, ‘Shiro’ means head and ‘dhara’ means flow.

Addressing Asthma With Ayurveda

Nimba Nature Cure

Addressing Asthma With Ayurveda

By: - August 6, 2020

Asthma makes it difficult for a person to breathe. It affects the daily life of a person negatively. A person suffering from asthma shows symptoms like:

  • Cough
  • Shortness of breath
  • Sweating
  • Rapid heart rate
  • Tightening in chest
  • Difficulty in the lungs

The severity of asthma attacks may differ from person to person. Exercise, allergens, irritants, and viral infections lead to frequent asthma attacks. Having parents or siblings with asthma is not a good sign for us. Our chances of becoming prone to asthma increases. Moreover, there are many other factors contributing to the cause of asthma, including:

 

Allergens:

Pollen from trees, grass, dust found in houses and feathers of animals.

 

Irritant: 

Cold air, changes in weather, air pollutants, cigarette smoke. Also, chemical fumes, paints, odor from cooking, and scented products.

 

Diet:

Intake of junk and fast food, less consumption of fruits and vegetables, having food containing sulfites, preservatives, and additives.

 

Others:

Other elements may include emotions like crying, laughing hard, fear, menstrual cycle in women, anger, and general stress.

Asthma treatment in Ayurveda helps in determining body imbalances. The patient should be willing to participate in the healing process. In addition, when a person undergoes asthma treatment in medication he or she can:

  • Make changes in lifestyle and diet
  • Remove emotional and mental stress
  • Increase immunity
  • Get disease resistant
  • Attain peaceful living

 

Ayurveda And Asthma

Asthma treatment in medication using Ayurveda primarily focuses on understanding the characteristics of each individual separately. However, each person has different issues and so they cannot be treated in the same way. Ayurveda theory says that if Prana (life force) cannot enter the body, the systems of the body will not be able to function. Thus, leading to major anxiety and stress.

Ayurvedic treatment in India provides a holistic view of health which focuses on all aspects of our being: the physical body, the mental and spiritual. Our body, mind, and spirit are interconnected. Therefore, a proper balance is required between them to ensure wholesome wellness.

Practicing Ayurvedic treatments, along with Yoga and meditation, improves strength, flexibility, and the capacity of the lungs. They are also called the three necessary components of fitness. Yoga includes Pranayama which ensures proper lung functioning. In addition, Pranayama also develops strong breathing ability by moving and strengthening the diaphragm. It increases lung air capacity, and improves flexibility of lung tissues.

Moreover, being surrounded by nature helps a person reduce stress in general. Further, it ensures that the person feels calm. Along with that, there are dietary changes that can help. However, there is no specific diet that can address the problem of Asthma. But, foods like Omega 3, ginger, garlic, honey, caffeine, might be helpful. Therefore, it is suggested to consume a good healthy diet. Also one should practice Yoga and meditation regularly.

We are now aware that Ayurvedic treatment is one of the powerful ways of addressing chronic diseases like an asthma attack. Nimba Nature Cure is one of the best centers for Ayurvedic treatment in India. It also provides services like Naturopathy, and Yoga and Meditation. The place offers a unique facility that helps to restore the natural balance of your mind, body, and spirit through modern medical advancements.
