7-Day Panchakarma Retreat in Rishikesh

About this retreat

This 7-day, 6-night Panchakarma retreat is at Earth Roots Ayurveda in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, beside the Ganga. Panchakarma is a traditional Ayurvedic cleansing routine, and the programme here is adjusted to each guest's constitution after a consultation with an Ayurvedic doctor. The stay brings together Ayurvedic therapies, daily yoga and meditation, and fresh sattvic meals. Doctors are available for a consultation each day. Rooms, therapy spaces and meditation areas are described as quiet, with plenty of natural light and a small number of guests at a time. Ayurveda traditionally describes Panchakarma as a way to clear accumulated toxins (ama) and balance the doshas, Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Guests with health conditions should speak with their doctor and the centre first.
