We have been offering holistic and personalized Panchakarma treatments at Lake Starnberg for over 20 years. Our treatments are based on a revival of the oldest and most comprehensive system of medicine in the world. The treatments are not only luxurious and relaxing, they also have a deep cleansing effect on the physiology. In particular, waste products and toxins, the main obstacles to a well-functioning metabolism, are removed in a very effective way. This is the prerequisite for regaining inner balance and stable health.

he ancient Rishis (Ayurvedic scholars) recognized this principle and developed the Panchakarma cure to bring the physiology into top form. Today, after around 5000 years, this method is more relevant than ever.

A well-functioning metabolism is also the basis for an alert, clear mind. Creativity, positivity and joie de vivre can flourish when the inner balance of the three "doshas" Vata, Pitta, Kapha and the metabolism are in tune. An energy deficit cannot be compensated for by motivation alone. The inner motor must run optimally so that body and mind can work together harmoniously. Only then can you experience a feeling of happiness and contentment.

The profound detoxification of a Panchakarma cure creates new momentum, revitalizes the metabolism and awakens the body's own intelligence. Fat-soluble waste products, acids, mucus, toxins, heavy metals, acid crystals and other tissue deposits are mobilized and eliminated. This makes you feel years younger and gives you significantly more strength and energy for the many tasks and demands of everyday life.

Scientists have calculated that the burden of waste products and toxins can account for up to 50% of the body's dry weight (calculation according to Dr. Mielke). These toxins are also the starting point for a variety of diseases.

Panchakarma cure
Our specialty lies in the personal and holistic interpretation of Ayurveda. It would not be a challenge for us if we only offered Ayurveda wellness treatments. Although a synchronized, four-handed oil massage is very relaxing, it alone is not able to eliminate chronic diseases. Only the entire Ayurveda knowledge package has the potential to bring about profound changes in physiology and metabolism.

Ayurveda has a total of 20 different strategies to bring body and mind into balance. These many treatment approaches offer us therapeutic possibilities to act on chronic diseases, metabolic weaknesses and sensitivity disorders.

The most important strategy in the Panchakarma detoxification cure is a thorough mobilization and elimination of metabolic waste products and toxins. These waste products block fine channels and spaces in the organs, tissues and also in the brain. This can cause the metabolism to falter and we feel ill, listless and lacking in energy.

This is exactly where our Panchakarma treatment comes in. Through various treatments and the administration of Ayurvedic preparations, the internal organs and tissues are thoroughly purified and cleansed. This is the prerequisite for effective metabolic revitalization and the basis for robust health.

Complementary therapeutic measures
Dr. John Switzer sets therapeutic accents through classical homeopathy, Ayurveda, Panchakarma cure and wild herb vital food. He has many years of experience with these naturopathic disciplines. Dr. Switzer began his studies of classical homeopathy in 1981 and Ayurveda in 1988... .

Panchakarma cures with a special focus
The cures can be individually adapted to the needs of the patient. There are effective treatment strategies for diseases such as fibromyalgia, arthritis (rheumatism), diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, allergies, tinnitus (ringing in the ears), obesity, bronchial asthma, skin diseases and others.

We see it as a challenge to treat each patient as comprehensively as possible in order to lay the foundations for a stable and lasting improvement in health. Each patient receives a comprehensive constitutional analysis with pulse diagnosis, as well as individual care during the cure. The initial anamnesis with Dr. Switzer lasts approx. 1 ½ hours. This allows each patient to be assessed individually, which is a prerequisite for effective treatment and a successful cure.

Above all, the Wild Herbs Vital Diet, a diet designed by Dr. Switzer, can set important healing accents.

At the end of the Panchakarma cure, each patient is given individual recommendations that can be used to combat ageing and strengthen their own constitution.
