The bag is made from fine cloth and the composition of medicated oils and herbs inside is customised based on the health condition to be treated. In the Pinda Sweda massage, the bag with herbal concoction is placed on the joints, muscles, and tendons to reduce pain, inflammation and other conditions. Sore, aching muscles are worked away with this invigorating and deeply releasing treatment. Using heated herbal poultices to help relieve pain, stiffness, tension and improving blood circulation. Completed with a restorative facial massage, tension is dissolved.

 

Ayurvedic Poultice Massage or Pinda sweda is a deep heat medicinal muscle therapy that uses Poultices (or Potlis) that contains a selection of Ayurvedic herbs, both, fresh and dried. The herbs are wrapped in a muslin cloth and heated. The poultice is dipped in warm medicated oil for wet massages and for dry massages. The massage is focused on specific pressure points that help rejuvenating, relaxing and nourishing the affected areas of the body.

This treatment is prescribed for a variety of ailments, especially for disorders related to Vata deficiencies.

​

Why should you get it?

​

Ayurvedic Poultice Massage is a simple heat therapy. Like any other heat treatment, it is detoxifying and induces sweat that helps eliminate toxins. The poultice will relieve aches and tensions in the muscle as well as stretch the connective tissues in the body. The heat of the poultice (or potlis) opens the pores and alleviating pain, stiff, sore or pulled muscles and ligaments. The hot compresses are ideal for relieving chronic back aches, arthritis, even skin conditions, migraines and chronic stress or anxiety. The herbs used in the poultice possess medicinal properties that are anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, astringent and antioxidant.
