Podikkizhi is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy in which warm herbal powders are tied in cloth bundles and gently massaged over the body or affected areas. This treatment is highly effective in reducing muscle stiffness, joint pain, inflammation, and swelling. Podikkizhi improves blood circulation, strengthens muscles, and helps balance aggravated Vata and Kapha doshas. It is especially beneficial for postnatal body pain, arthritis, back pain, and sports injuries.
Janu Vasthi is a specialized Ayurvedic treatment focused on nourishing and strengthening the knee joints. In this therapy, warm medicated oil is retained over the knee area using a herbal dough ring. Janu Vasthi lubricates the joints, reduces pain and stiffness, improves flexibility, and strengthens surrounding muscles. It is highly recommended for knee pain, osteoarthritis, postnatal joint weakness, ligament injuries, and age-related degeneration.
Pichu is a gentle yet powerful Ayurvedic therapy in which sterile cotton pads soaked in warm medicated oil are placed over specific areas of the body for a fixed duration. This treatment nourishes deep tissues, calms the nervous system, and reduces pain, inflammation, and dryness caused by aggravated Vata dosha. Pichu is especially beneficial for back pain, neck pain, postnatal weakness, spinal disorders, and neurological conditions.
Bandhanam is an Ayurvedic supportive therapy that involves wrapping or binding specific body parts using medicated herbal pastes, oils, or cloth. This treatment provides stability, reduces swelling, improves healing, and supports weakened muscles and joints. Bandhanam is commonly used in postnatal care to support the abdomen and lower back, as well as in musculoskeletal injuries, fractures, and ligament strain, promoting faster recovery and structural support.
