The Five Classical Actions

Panchakarma — five paths to a cleared system

What it is

Panchakarma is Ayurveda's foundational purification system: five distinct procedures, each targeting a different channel of the body, used individually or in sequence to remove accumulated imbalance at its root rather than manage it at the surface. At Anzee Ayurveda in Wayanad, every protocol below is preceded by a personal consultation with our resident Vaidyas, adapted to your unique Prakriti (constitution), and delivered in a calm, clinically supervised setting using traditional herbal preparations sourced and prepared in-house.

Vamanam

Therapeutic Emesis

Vamanam is a physician-supervised cleansing procedure designed to clear excess Kapha dosha that accumulates in the stomach, chest and respiratory tract. In the days leading up to the procedure, the body is prepared through internal oleation (Snehapana) with medicated ghee and external Swedana (herbal steam therapy), which helps loosen deep-seated toxins so they can be released efficiently and safely under close clinical observation.

  • Recommended for chronic cough, asthma and sinus congestion
  • Supports seasonal allergy and skin conditions linked to Kapha
  • Restores appetite, lightness and mental clarity post-therapy

Virechanam

Therapeutic Purgation

Virechanam uses carefully selected medicated herbal preparations to gently draw excess Pitta dosha out of the body through the liver, gallbladder and small intestine. Like Vamanam, it is preceded by a preparatory phase of oleation and sudation to mobilise deep toxins into the digestive tract, after which the cleansing preparation clears them out over a controlled, supervised window. It is one of the most widely used Panchakarma therapies for Pitta-related conditions.

  • Effective for chronic acidity, IBS and digestive inflammation
  • Widely used for psoriasis, eczema and other Pitta-driven skin issues
  • Helps cool excess body heat, irritability and hyperacidity

Vasti

Medicated Enema Therapy

Considered the cornerstone of the entire Panchakarma system, Vasti involves the careful administration of herbal decoctions or medicated oils through the colon to pacify Vata — the subtle force that governs all movement in the body, from joint mobility to nerve function. Formulations are custom-blended to the individual, and treatment may extend over several days depending on the condition being addressed, making it one of the most versatile and frequently prescribed therapies in classical Ayurveda.

  • Highly effective for arthritis, joint stiffness and lower back pain
  • Supports nerve-related disorders, sciatica and muscular tension
  • Improves mobility, sleep quality and overall nervous system balance

Nasyam

Nasal Administration

Nasyam involves the administration of herbal oils, medicated powders or plant extracts through the nostrils — regarded in Ayurvedic physiology as the most direct access point to the head, neck and sensory organs. The therapy is typically preceded by a gentle facial massage and mild fomentation to open the nasal passages, allowing the medication to act efficiently on the tissues above the collarbone, an area classical texts describe as governed largely by Kapha and Prana.

  • Relieves sinusitis, chronic congestion and recurring headaches
  • Improves voice, vision and disorders of the sensory organs
  • Eases mental fatigue, migraines and disturbed sleep patterns

Raktha Mokshanam

Blood Purification Therapy

The most specialised of the five classical actions, Raktha Mokshanam is applied selectively to purify circulating blood in cases where impurities have accumulated to the point of causing localised inflammation or chronic skin disease. Performed only under strict clinical supervision by our senior Vaidyas after a thorough assessment, it is reserved for conditions where the other four Panchakarma therapies alone are unlikely to bring full resolution.

  • Used for chronic, non-responsive skin conditions and localised inflammation
  • Supports conditions linked to impure or stagnant blood quality
  • Administered only after detailed clinical evaluation by a Vaidya
