Snehapana - Intake of Medicated Ghee

It’s currently a very busy time at the Lakshmi clinic for Panchakarma. Amazing to see that we have more and more clients undergoing Panchakarma.Β 


After a few days of Udvarthanam powder massage our patient will start the process of drinking medicated ghee ……. Have you heard of Snehapana before πŸ‘‡


What is Snehapana? πŸ‘‡ Why the Ghee intake?

A quote from the Charaka Samhita on the incredible results of Snehapana, intake of sneha dravya, medicated ghee/oils. πŸ“š

Have you undergone snehapana? How was your experience drinking medicated ghee?


It is so great to see our patients coming back to this deep experience of detoxification. Indeed, every Panchakarma is a uniqueΒ  journey into your deepest Self, a returning to the source. Panchakarma is a potent process for removing emotional as well as physical and energetic stagnation and therefore peels away the layers so you can reach not only physical health but an higher state of clarity in terms of life direction and focus.πŸ™


This process is only to be done under the direct supervision of an experienced Ayurvedic Practitioner. The type of ghee used as well as amount is very important and only to be prescribed after consultation with a practitioner.
