Nasya (नस्य)
Nasya is a therapeutic Ayurvedic treatment involving the administration of herbal oils or powders through the nasal passages. Recognized as one of the five major Panchakarma therapies, Nasya is highly effective for clearing toxins from the head, nose, and throat region. This therapy aims to improve respiratory health, enhance mental clarity, and balance the Kapha and Vata doshas.
Process of Nasya:
Preparation:
- Facial Massage and Steam Therapy: Nasya begins with a gentle massage around the head, face, and neck to loosen toxins, followed by steam to open up nasal passages.
- Diet and Timing: This treatment is best performed on an empty stomach, typically in the morning or during the daytime.
Herbal Oil Application:
- Medicinal herbal oils or powders are carefully administered into each nostril while the patient inhales deeply to ensure the herbs reach the upper respiratory and sinus areas.
- This process allows the therapeutic properties of the herbs to reach the sinuses, throat, and brain, removing toxins and balancing doshas.
