Panchkarma (PK) Treatments

[Guest guest]

Are there any contra-indications for PK treatments?

 

What if someone has a very severe adverse drug reaction

to a prescribed med and is suffering severe CNS symptoms

as well as digestive and joints issues?

 

One thing I don't quite understand, would not PK put

additional stress on the liver?

 

Thanks

Dear Kooky,

All Pk treatments have indications and contraindications also, but a good

Ayurvedic practitioner knows them all very well and he would indicate the right

treatment for the right person. If Pk is done the correct way it would never put

any additional stress on any organ, including liver. For the ailments you

mentioned you can have ayurvedic treatment, and pk if necessary. All you need is

a good Ayurvedic doctor.

This is what happened here:

 

I know someone who just had a terrible adverse

reaction to a fluoroquinolones antibiotic. She was

hallucinating, anxiety, depression, and this cause

some damage to her occipital part of the brain, which

I know she will recover from. All this is reversible

but will take a long time.

 

This Fq antibiotic also causes multiple systemic damage

and can be long lasting, or fatal. It is a chemoprophylactic

which means it kills many cells and can produce symptoms

similar to those who are on chemo.

 

I am not sure is pk is too soon for her at this time.

 

what do you think?

 

The fact is when this type of adverse reaction occurs,

it shows causes damage to detox liver pathways, including

CYPs, acetylation etc...

 

If the liver is NOT functioning as well as kidneys, lympathic

system, how can detoxing help?

 

Many who are in this situation worsens when detoxing, and in severe

cases have died.

 

This is why I asked the question, can PK be too demanding for some, and are

there any contraindications.

 

If the system is overloaded with free radicals, and detoxification pathways are

not working, is PK not contraindicated?

 

Thanks,

Dear Mr. Kooky,

 

Panchkarma treatment is a procedural treatment of Ayurved. Indications and

contraindications are very well described in the text and Physician has to

follow this strictly. One should not apply procedure to the patient who's

disease is contraindicated and the condition is contraindicated.Panchkarma is it

self is a detoxification and cleansing therapy.

 

One should consult proper and well experienced Panchkarma Physician. One should

not consult therapist or massagist. One should consult Panchkarma specialist.

Regards.

Thanks.
