Panchakarma is Ayurveda's most intensive and sustainable cleansing treatment. Literally translated, it means "five actions" - i.e. five central cleansing procedures with which experienced Ayurvedic therapists systematically rid the body of deep-seated metabolic residues (ama), toxins and emotional burdens.
At the European Ayurveda Resort Sonnhof, experienced experts carry out Panchakarma in a holistically supervised setting - individually tailored to your constitution, your stage of life and your health needs.
The most important facts in brief: Why Panchakarma is so important
In our western world, body and mind are often chronically overburdened: through stress, malnutrition, environmental toxins, hormonal imbalances or suppressed emotions. All of this leads to an accumulation of ama - an Ayurvedic term for undigested residues that block our cell communication, our energy and our immune system.
This is exactly where Panchakarma comes in:
- Cleansing at cellular level: toxins are released from deep tissue layers and eliminated
- Strengthening Agni, the digestive fire, as the basis for sustainable health
- Calms the nervous system and balances the doshas
- Emotional clarification and mental relief
- Longevity and prevention through cell regeneration
What happens during a Panchakarma treatment?
The cure follows a clearly structured procedure that is individually adapted:
1st preliminary phase - strengthen Agni and release Ama:
The body is prepared through type-appropriate nutrition, herbs and oil massages.
2nd main phase - detoxification (Panchakarma):
Depending on the diagnosis, classic elimination procedures are used:
- Vamana (therapeutic vomiting)
- Virechana (bowel diversion)
- Basti (medicalized enema procedure)
- Nasya (cleansing of the sinuses)
3rd post-phase - regeneration and ojas build-up:
Now it's about generating new cell power. Nutrition, rest, rituals and Rasayana herbs promote Ojas - our vital life essence.

Ayurveda: Indian art of healing in harmony with body and mind
Ayurvedic teachings assume that physical and mental complaints arise from an imbalance. The three doshas, which have a significant influence on mental balance, form the basis for individual healing approaches and treatments.
