Podikizhi is an Ayurvedic treatment that is often recommended when the body experiences various physical and health issues, particularly related to pain, inflammation, and muscular discomfort.
A variety of herbal powders are used in Podikizhi. Common ingredients include turmeric, ginger, horse gram, fenugreek, and rice. These herbs are selected for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. The powders are roasted and then tied into small, cloth pouches to form bundles known as kizhis.
Before the treatment begins, warm medicated oil is applied to the body. This oil helps prepare the skin and muscles for the therapy and enhances the absorption of the herbal powders.
The herbal poultices are heated to a comfortable temperature. This ensures that the warmth penetrates deep into the tissues during the treatment.
The warm kizhis are gently pressed and massaged over the affected areas of the body. The therapist uses specific strokes and techniques to ensure the maximum therapeutic effect.
After the treatment, the patient is allowed to relax. This helps the body absorb the benefits of the therapy fully.
