Clinical Ayurvedic Therapies

Shirodhara is a classical Ayurvedic therapy that involves gently pouring liquids over the forehead. The name comes from the Sanskrit words shiras (head) and dhara (flow). The liquids used can include oil, milk, buttermilk, coconut water, or even plain water. It is highly effective in relieving mental stress, anxiety, tension headaches, insomnia, and various neurological disorders by stimulating the vital marma points on the head.

Abhyanga is a form of Ayurvedic therapy that involves massage of the entire body from the head to the toes with warm dosha-specific medicated herb-infused oil. The oil is pre-warmed and gently massaged into the skin. This therapy helps in improving blood circulation, enhancing immune function, promoting deep relaxation, lubricating the joints, and restoring the physical and mental balance of the body.

Panchakarma is the ultimate mind-body healing experience for detoxifying the body, strengthening the immune system, and restoring balance and well-being. It is a comprehensive Sanskrit term for the five key detoxification and rejuvenation therapies in Ayurveda (Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana). Under direct medical supervision, this custom protocol releases accumulated metabolic wastes (Ama) from deep tissue layers.

Janu Basti is a specialized, non-invasive Ayurvedic clinical therapy designed to target knee pain, stiffness, and degenerative joint conditions. The treatment involves constructing a leak-proof reservoir of herbal dough around the knee joint, which is then filled with warm, custom-blended medicated oils kept at a therapeutic temperature.

Kati Basti is a highly effective, non-invasive Ayurvedic clinical therapy specifically designed to treat disorders of the lower back (lumbar-sacral region). The term comes from "Kati," meaning the lower back or waist, and "Basti," meaning to retain. During the procedure, a leak-proof reservoir made of herbal dough is placed over the lower spine and filled with warm, custom-selected medicated oils that are maintained at a constant, healing temperature.
