In today's scenario when whole world is looking for other alternative treatment methodology; Ayurveda Marma & Panchakarma therapies is the major attraction.

Panchakarma is useful in maintaining normal health and is important in suppression of disease condition. We can understand Panchakarma more capably as an art of body cleansing.
