Raktamokshana
What to expect
Raktamokshana is the most selective of the five classical procedures. The classical texts describe more than one method, and the choice depends on your condition, your strength and your other medical history.
If it is considered suitable, the procedure, the precautions and the aftercare are explained fully before anything is done. For many people a different therapy is the better choice, and you will be told so.
Who it is for
Raktamokshana is considered only for specific conditions where the doctor judges it appropriate. It is never offered as a routine or general wellness therapy.
Not suitable with
- Pregnancy
- Anaemia or severe weakness

It depends on you. A supportive therapy such as Abhyanga or Shirodhara typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. A full programme with preparation, main therapy and recovery typically runs from about one to three weeks. The exact length is decided after assessment.
Panchakarma is a structured medical procedure, not a spa routine. It is planned only after Dr. Aditya Kunal assesses you, and the intensity is adjusted to your strength. It is not suitable for everyone, which is why no therapy starts without a consultation.
Panchakarma is usually avoided or postponed during pregnancy, acute fever or infection, severe weakness, and in some heart conditions. Young children and frail elders need special care. If you have a serious or ongoing condition, your regular doctor stays in charge of it, and we work alongside, never instead.
No. Never stop or change a prescribed medicine without the doctor who prescribed it. Bring your prescriptions to the consultation so your plan is made around them.
Light, warm, freshly cooked food such as khichdi, moong dal and rice, with warm water through the day. Specific diet instructions are given for each phase, and they matter as much as the therapy itself.
