Is Panchakarma Painful or Uncomfortable? Myths Dubai Patients Should Debunk

Full-body healing sessions are often a dream of people trying to crush their goals each day, each week, each month and each year. With Ayurvedic treatments available through reputed and respected clinics, you will be able to get the treatment you need. While Ayurvedic treatments conjure up images of pampering massages and relaxed therapies, Panchakarma in Dubai often brings about mixed feelings – mainly because the sessions have “therapeutic vomiting” (Vamana) or “medicated enemas” (Basti). Authentic Ayurveda treatment from Ayur Treat will give you exactly what you need – healing from within. Panchakarma therapy follows an ancient, five-step cleansing system known for restoring balance, calming the mind, and healing chronic conditions.

Ayur Treat, we often get a number of queries regarding the panchakarma treatment in Dubai, and whether it brings pain and discomfort.

Myth – 1 Vamana is Violent and Painful

Vamana means vomiting, and the very thought of throwing up makes it quite disconcerting for most people, because they associate that with food poisoning or illness.

The Reality: Don’t worry if you throw up. This is a controlled and clinically supervised process, and you won’t feel sick at all. In fact, you will feel good. This is because you don’t simply walk in, and the practitioners will induce vomiting. First, your body will be prepared with Snehana (internal and external oleation) and Swedana (steaming). Then you will be given specific herbal decoctions that induce the reflex naturally. All the toxins in your system will be moved to the stomach, and then eliminated.

Myth – 2 –  Basti (Enema) is extremely painful

The idea of an enema often conjures images of painful stomach cramps caused from harsh chemical flushes.

The Reality: Basti is colonic irrigation that Ayurveda employs by using warm, medicated oils and herbal decoctions. This is a powerful and nourishing treatment that will nourish the colon and pacify Vata dosha (anxiety, dryness, pain).

The treatment is best for giving you immediate relief from bloating, back pain, and constipation.

Myth 3: Detox means starving yourself

Some people believe that detox sessions include starving yourself or running to the bathroom constantly, taking up your entire day.

The Reality:  Absolutely not! These are deeply relaxing treatments like Shirodhara (warm oil pouring on the forehead) and Abhyanga (synchronized massage). These therapies are restorative, and designed to calm the nervous system, so in fact you will feel pampered, not punished.
