What Your Score Means ?

16–20 points — Doctor-Led Panchakarma (14–21 days)

You’re showing multiple persistent imbalance signals. A comprehensive, physician-designed cleanse at Kairali – The Ayurvedic Healing Village (Palakkad) is likely the best fit. Expect daily consults, tailored therapies (e.g., Abhyanga, Shirodhara, localized treatments), sattvic meals, restorative yoga, breath-work, and a step-by-step home plan.
Next step: Share your history/meds and request dates for a 14–21 day plan at the kairali retreat kerala—often cited as the best ayurvedic retreat in kerala for solo women seeking deep results.

9–15 points — 7–10 Day Mini-Reset

You need a structured pause, not a full cleanse. A Mini-Reset focuses on Purvakarma (pre-cleanse), warm oil therapies, light steam, gentle yoga, breath-work, early dinners, and digital boundaries.
Expected gains: Better sleep by nights 3–4, calmer digestion, steadier energy.
Next step: Book 7–10 days at Kairali’s Holistic wellness retreat; your doctor will fine-tune intensity.

0–8 points — Light Routine Upgrade (Home or 3–5 Day Stay)

You’re close to balance. Small, consistent tweaks may suffice.
Try: Early warm dinners, regular sleep/wake times, daily gentle movement, warm water/herbal tea, 10 minutes morning breath-work.
Next step: Do a 3–5 day short stay or request a virtual plan; re-take the quiz in 6–8 weeks.
