Fall Cleanse

The Purpose of Cleansing in Ayurvedic Medicine

In Ayurveda, we set aside 5 days in the Spring and Fall to allow the digestive system to rest and help release any impurities from the bloodstream.

By eating a simple diet of Mung Beans, Rice and Vegetables along with using medicinal doses of Ghee, a pure triglyceride, we create a program designed specifically for the individual person.

This process is traditionally called “PurvaKarm” and I have been offering this cleanse for over 16 years to hundreds of clients. Some of the benefits include increasing immunity and strength, decreasing unhealthy cravings, reducing systemic inflammation in the body and weight loss.

This process is done on your own time, with guidance from me along the way. Please let me know if you have any questions!
