Classical Ayurveda
Ayurveda originated in India from the 4th Veda 6000 years ago and was classically modified by modern scientists, scholars and spiritual yogis (charaka, susrutha, etc) 3000 years ago. It is the oldest ‘human soul-science of life’ in the world based on holistic and natural healing. The ancient living science of Ayurveda helps people to achieve total health and wellness through the balance of body, mind and soul.

About Panchakarma treatment
Panchakarma is the ultimate, natural mind-body healing experience for detoxifying the body, strengthening the immune system, and restoring balance and well-being. It includes five major treatments which can help to purify the whole body by eliminating accumulated toxins and eradicate illness from the root.
This treatment is greatly beneficial for people with good health, as well as for anyone suffering from an illness. Panchakarma has a preventive, restorative and rejuvenating effect on the body, mind and soul.
For an optimal result the patient should follow the Ayurveda discipline, diet and lifestyle during the treatment program. This is a unique opportunity to discover and experience the ultimate lifestyle rutine for optimal health and vitality that creates a balanced energy of inner peace, joy and harmony.
Did you know that “An accumulation of toxins can also manifest in a variety of health issues, including allergies, diabetes, bronchitis, sinus problems, depression, and obesity. By creating a daily routine that balances the three Doshas (energies) Vadha, Pitta, Kapha you can begin to relax, “lighten up” and get your energy flowing again.” ~ Dr Sibi

What people say
about Panchakarma with Dr Sibi
About Kerala
Exotic and tropical Kerala is one of the few places in the world where the traditional, classical and authentic Ayurveda is still practiced. The ancient Dravidian culture of India started here and it’s one of the few places in India where it still remains a living tradition. Kerala is the first district in India to achieve 100% literacy. The land is rich with exotic spices, palm trees and coconut fruits. With a perfect, fertile climate Kerala has become famous for it’s huge palm trees, coconut trees and rich plantations.
India is a multicultural destination where you can explore and experience the ancient living culture of spirituality and way of living. Colorful and with immense diversity, India will leave an impression upon you. In fact, you will be enchanted and challenged. If you are feeling the calling, India will give you exactly what you need even if you are not consciously aware of what that is. I say this because I am often called to places without knowing ‘why’. And I am always surprised by something wonderful that astonishes me. Travelling to places that call our heart opens us to experience different sides of ourselves, including inner happiness and peace we never thought possible. We start to become more aware, behave and see things differently. With subtle small changes we can experience big changes in our lives for the better when our body, mind and soul goes back to real harmony. This is the beginning of understanding who we truly are and realising ourselves from the limitations.

She says, “You may not know what you are consciously looking for, but I am convinced that your soul knows, and knows how to reveal it to you when you are ready. As you heed the call and go where your inner knowing beckons, the enchanted land gives you exactly what you need. Ultimately we awaken latent energy and welcome a new reality.
