Swednam Therapy

Bashpa Swednam

In Sanskrit, “Bashpa” means steam and “Swedana” means to sweat or perspire. It relieves stiffness, heaviness, and cold in the body and produces sweat. Bashpa Swedana consists of applying herbalised steam evenly to your body as you sit comfortably in a steam box. With this method, your body can be fully steamed while your head remains cool. In Ayurveda, it is believed that the eyes and head should be protected from overheating. It also promotes the elimination of impurities through the sweat.

Nadi-swedanam:

A locally application of heat to different part of the body. It is usually done for localised conditions like Osteoarthritis, sprain, or to relieve some localised pain as in Cervical spondylitis. Here fomentation is done with the vapours generated out of medicated decoction that is then applied to the affected area with the help of a rubber tube.
