Introduction
A 70-year-old woman arrived at Naturoville Wellness Retreat seeking relief from degenerative changes associated with aging, including persistent pains, skin-related concerns, and a desire to improve overall strength and vitality.
Initial Assessment
Upon check-in, the guest underwent a thorough consultation with the experienced medical team at Naturoville. The consultation included a detailed discussion about her medical history, lifestyle, and specific concerns related to the aging process. Nadi Parikshan, an Ayurvedic diagnostic technique, was employed to understand her unique constitution and identify imbalances.
Nadi Parikshan Findings
The Nadi Parikshan revealed that the guest had a Vata-Pitta dosha dominance, indicating imbalances in the air and fire elements. These imbalances were contributing to her degenerative changes and associated concerns.
Prakriti Definition and Treatment Plan
Based on the findings, the medical team defined her Prakriti (individual constitution) as Vata-Pitta. A personalized treatment plan was devised to address the degenerative changes, focusing on pain relief, skin enhancement, and overall strength improvement.
Dietary Recommendations
The doctors recommended a constructive diet aligning with her Vata-Pitta Prakriti. The diet aimed to provide nourishment, improve digestion, and enhance overall strength through the inclusion of nutrient-dense foods.

Tailored Panchakarma therapies addressing geriatric care were prescribed:
a. **Abhyanga (Therapeutic Massage):**
Specialized massages using warm herbal oils to alleviate joint pain, improve blood circulation, and provide overall relaxation.
b. **Pizhichil (Oil Bath):**
A therapeutic treatment involving the pouring of warm medicated oil over the body, promoting joint flexibility and enhancing skin health.
c. **Basti (Enema Therapy):**
Medicated enemas, particularly Anuvasana Basti, to nourish and rejuvenate tissues, addressing degenerative changes associated with aging.
d. **Shirodhara (Oil Dripping on Forehead):**

e. **Twak Prasadana (Skin Cleansing):**
Specific treatments to cleanse and rejuvenate the skin, addressing age-related skin issues and promoting a youthful glow.
