Upanaham Treatments
Upanaha is a kind of Swedana– sudation – in which the medicines are made into a paste after boiling with a suitable liquid and applied over a specific area. It is covered with leaves and bandaged with thick cloth which can be removed after a stipulated time. Warm oil is applied in the area where Upanaha is to be done and the herbal drugs mixed with thaila/ghritha paste are applied in bearable heat. The area where the paste is applied is covered and bandaged with a thick cotton cloth. This can be removed and cleaned after the prescribed duration followed by the application of oil. A normal diet is usually advised. It is a type of Swedana – sudation that imparts heat to a specific area resulting in the reduction of swelling and pain. It improves blood circulation and thus, mobilizes the waste materials of that area.
