Kerala Ayurveda
An ancient traditional system of medicine, Ayurveda is considered to be the oldest system of health care, with literature going back 5000 years and an oral tradition that is much older. This healing system has been practiced in daily life in India for more than 5000 years. In Ayurveda, health is a state of spiritual and physical attainment. It is a medical, metaphysical healing life science - the mother of all healing arts. The practice of ayurveda is designed to promote human happiness, health and creative growth. It is the science of daily living and this system of knowledge evolved from the sage's practical, philosophical and religious illumination which was rooted in their understanding of the creation. Ayurveda helps the healthy person to maintain health and the diseased person to regain health.
ABHYANGAM
A whole body massage with specific herbal oils to nourish and revitalize the body tissues and to allow the toxins to be removed from the cells. Anhyangam has much deeper and more far reaching effects using mineral oils and lotions. Abhyangam achieves deepest healing effects by naturally harmonizing Body - Mind & Spirit. This massage is performed by one therapist for one hour and is usually followed by a medicated steam bath (Swedana). It is one of the most rejuvenating.
PIZHICHIL
Pizhichil is a procedure developed in Kerala, which gives the effects of both Snehana and Swedana. It is considered as one among the Keraleeya Panchakarma Technique. Medicated oil is poured onto the body in continuous streams while being gently massaged by two therapists for 45 minutes to 60 minutes. It is extremely soothing and relaxing. It acts as a free radical scavenger, toning, strengthening and deeply rejuvenating the whole body. It is given after a course of Abhyangam.
SHIRO VASTI
This is the most important of all external use of Snehana (oil application). Certain lukewarm ayurvedic / herbal oils are poured into a cap fitted on the head for 15 to 60 minutes per day according to the patient's conditions for a period of 7 days. Its effects are marvelous in neuralgia, hemicarnia, optic atrophy, otalgia, deafness, facial paralysis and all diseases affecting the carnial nerves.
KATIVASTI
In this process specially prepared warm medicated oil is kept over the lower back with herbal paste boundary. This treatment lasts for 45 minutes to 1 hour.
NJAVARAKIZHI
It is a process by which the whole body or any specific part thereof is made to perspire by the application of certain medical puddings externally in the form of boluses tied up in a muslin bag. This is applied by two to four masseurs for about 60 minutes per day for a period of 14 days.
ANJANAM
A special treatment in which the eyes are bathed in a special herbal decotion. This procedure takes 15 minutes.
SHIRO DHARA
Dhara is a method of Kerala special treatment. Many such distinctive and excellent forms of treatments, not practiced in the other parts of India are conducted by the Kerala Physicians. A continuous stream of medicated warm oil/herbal decoctions/medicated milk/buttermilk is poured onto the forehead for 35 to45 to minutes. This procedure often induces a mental state similar to a trance, which creates profound relaxation of the mind and body. It deeply relaxes and revitalizes the central nervous system. Shirodhara gives the best results when taken after an Abhyangam. Dhara is good for all ailments. Changing the liquid as per the Dosha condition, with necessary alterations in the procedure, is useful to alleviate any Dosha.
SHEERADHARA
Same relaxing treatment as Sirodhara but instead of herbal oil, herbal milk is poured over the forehead or over the whole body. Great therapy for people suffering from headaches from Vata and Pitta predominance, Insomnia and mental tension.
