Nasyam Panchkarma
Nasal detox (Nasya) is the process of cleansing the head. It is the procedure of pouring specific number of drops of Ayurvedic herbalized oils/liquids to each nostril. There are different types of nasal detox according to the dose and the type of the herbal formulations. Herbalized oils are commonly used for nasal detox.
First head, face, chest and upper back are massaged using herbalized oil with specific strokes to lubricate and facilitate mucous drainage.
