Description
Patra Pinda Sweda, widely known as Elakkizhi, is one of the most popular and effective Ayurvedic therapies for chronic pain. 'Patra' means leaves, 'Pinda' means bolus, and 'Sweda' is sweat. This treatment involves a therapeutic massage with warm pouches filled with a variety of fresh medicinal leaves and herbs.
At Ojani Ayurveda Wellness Center, our therapists fry the potent Vata-pacifying leaves and herbs in medicated oil before tying them into boluses. These are then dipped in warm oil and massaged rhythmically over the body. Under Dr. Reethu’s guidance, Elakkizhi provides remarkable relief from neuromuscular pain and joint inflammation, making it a highly sought-after treatment by our international and North Indian guests.
