Nasya

Nasya therapy is a specialized Ayurvedic treatment that involves the administration of herbal oils, medicated powders, or decoctions through the nasal passage. It holds significant relevance within both Panchakarma, the traditional Ayurvedic detoxification and rejuvenation therapy, and Dinacharya, the daily self-care routine prescribed in Ayurveda

Nasya therapy is a key procedure in Panchakarma, a detoxification modality in Ayurveda medicine, that eliminates toxins from the body. It is particularly beneficial for treating disorders related to the head, neck, and respiratory system, such as sinusitis, headaches, allergies, and neurological conditions. Nasya therapy uses therapeutic substances such as medicated ghee, oil or herbal powders through the nasal route to clear nasal passages, improve respiratory function, and restore Dosha balance. In Dinacharya, Nasya therapy is recommended daily for maintaining overall well-being and mental clarity. It involves applying medicated oils or powders to each nostril, followed by specific massage techniques to facilitate absorption. Nasya therapy is a potent therapeutic tool in Ayurveda, playing a crucial role in Panchakarma detoxification and daily self-care regimens.
