Rasayana Chikitsa is the treatment for rejuvenation and regeneration of tissues, mental well-being, intellect and boosting of the immune system. Rasayana treatments are done for those who have a low immune system and lack vitality. There are two reasons for this treatment: One is to help a diseased person get back to normalcy and the other is help a normal person enjoy enhanced vitality, immunity, and intellect. About the Treatment: This treatment starts with a two-week process of cleansing to eliminate toxins. It is only after this that the rejuvenation treatments start along with the specific medicines and diet. The aim is to arrest the degeneration of body cells and increase immunity. In fact, the treatment helps to keep individuals free from diseases even at an advanced age. During the first stage, the body is prepared for removing toxins through Snehanam, which involves making the body unctuous or oily internally and externally, and through Swedanam which means therapeutic sweating. Afterward, Shodhana or elimination is done by appropriate Panchakarma techniques. By making the patient undergo these treatments, his doshas (body constitution) and its imbalances are stabilized before the rejuvenation process is started. During the rejuvenation stage treatments are given to improve vitality. The doctor’s prescribed course of action is designed to suit each body’s unique needs and make-up and following the instructions in its entirety is mandatory for the healing process. Yoga, Meditation and Satsang sessions are also part of the program. —Doctor’s note— The treatment procedures are determined according to each person’s medical condition and doshas.
