Ayurvedic Detox Retreats for Malaysian Visitors

At some stage, there is simply nothing that can bring about any kind of feeling of rejuvenation. One feels tired and the mind becomes restless, while something in one’s core self makes an insistent demand for a fresh start. For many travelers who come all the way from Malaysia to Kerala, this insistent demand leads ultimately to the booking of their holiday package in Kerala, and what they discover here exceeds their expectations by far.

Ayurvedic detox treatment in Kerala, as prescribed by Ayurveda is not just some quick routine of cleansing oneself in a few hours. It is a systematic medical treatment for eliminating toxins (Ama)– according to the principles of Ayurveda, that have gathered inside the body’s tissues. When this treatment is conducted in the correct way, its effects are long-lasting.

Why Are Malaysians into This?

Malaysia and Kerala have more similarities besides their tropical weather conditions. It is common practice for Malaysian natives, whether of Indian origin or otherwise, to have prior knowledge of Ayurveda practices. The difference is in having awareness of and access to this medical practice. In order to be effective, the Panchakarma procedure should have qualified doctors, genuine prescriptions, and the appropriate environment. It is this unique combination that makes it necessary to go to Kerala.

Working individuals visit Kerala for the same reason of getting tired after several years of being exposed to stressful environments and poor diets. For others, this might follow certain health complications such as chronic fatigue syndrome, eczema outbreaks, digestion problems, and arthritis among others.

What Happens During an Ayurvedic Detox?

At the Rasayana Ayurveda Centre, every patient has an in-depth consultation with our doctors and then a programme is tailor made based on their body type (Prakriti) and health status. Each patient will receive different treatment since each person is unique.

The detox process will usually go through three stages. The first stage is known as Purvakarma and it involves preparing the body for the process using oral intake of medicated ghee or oils and external application of oils. This helps in removing toxins from deep within the body to the digestive system. The second stage of purification, Pradhan Karma, is the main one. It can consist of Virechana (purgation), Vamana (emesis), or special enema treatments referred to as Basti. It is noteworthy that Basti is regarded as one of the strongest methods used in Ayurvedic medicine. The classical sources of information about this practice refer to it as highly effective in cases of half of all diseases. The third stage, known as Paschatkarma, is the post-detoxification rejuvenation. It includes Rasayana procedures consisting of specific herbal medicines and treatments restoring the digestive fire, which has been deliberately suppressed while the process of detoxification took place.

The Supporting Therapies

Panchakarma cannot be done independently. The daily practice of Abhyanga (full body oil massage), Shirodhara (medicated oil poured on forehead continuously), Swedana (steam bath with herbs) and Njavara Kizhi (an exclusive therapy of Kerala using cooked rice boluses in herb milk) along with the basic detox process helps in opening up channels, calming the nerves and bringing the toxins to the surface.

The importance of diet during the retreat can never be underestimated. Each guest at the Ayurveda retreat is given an appropriately planned 'Pathya' which is a therapeutic diet plan for the detox process without burdening the body with anything too heavy during the detoxification process. Light, easily digestible and warm food prepared from fresh ingredients is common at all times.

Things to Look Out for a Malaysian Visitor

Kerala can easily be accessed from the main cities of Malaysia through both direct and layover flights to the Cochin International Airport in Kochi, or you can reach to Calicut international airport and then travel to Kochi. The Rasayana Ayurveda Centre is based in Kochi, making it easy for foreigners to reach the destination. Rasayana Ayurvedic centre has been accredited as AYUR DIAMOND category, only a few have been recognized as AYUR DIAMONDS by the Department of Tourism, Kerala Governmnet.

The programmes offered by Rasayana, the Ayurvedic detox centre in Kerala, can be done in a period that ranges between one week and several weeks according to the objective of the therapy. In order to get a successful detoxification process, most doctors recommend a minimum of a 14-day process. Our center is certified by National Accreditation Board for Hospitals (NABH), This is the highest standard for quality and safety for a hospital in India. This is provided, after very stringent scrutiny. Therefore, the safety norms, hygiene policies, and standards of medical practice are validated and certified by an external independent body of the nation. For foreign visitors, this is an added assurance. We have a group of experienced doctors, headed by Dr. V. Madhavachandran, chief Ayurvedic physician having more than three decades of experience in clinical practice, along with a dedicated staff of therapists and nurses.

What One Can Notice After a Retreat?

By far the most frequently reported observations by people who go on a detoxification program here are rather subtle. More efficient digestion and metabolism, clean skin, sound sleep, mental clarity that is hard to describe but easily recognizable when achieved. And sustained energy levels throughout the day.

Some people come to us with particular ailments and feel better after their experience. Some come just because they have been feeling ‘off’ for a while and want to get back to themselves. Both are equally valid reasons, and there’s no distinction made in the world of Ayurveda between them because we heal people, not ailments.

It is not about achieving something fast, rather, the preparatory stages before and after your arrival play a crucial a role in the processes that happen at the time of retreat.
