Medicated Herbal Pack
~ UPANAHAM ~
Upanaham or Medicated Herbal Pack Application is a powerful Ayurvedic practice used effectively since ancient Vedic times by Ayurvedic practitioners to address musculoskeletal problems. Upanaham involves application of a medicinal paste for a specified period of time over the specific body part that is inflamed, swollen up or in pain. The applied paste is then covered with leaves of an herb plant that has medicinal value. This helps relieve pain and swelling by nourishing the tissues and improving blood circulation, thereby initiating the healing process. It is proven effective in alleviating from localized pain and swelling and providing relief in pain conditions such as Osteoarthritis and joint injuries. Upanaham treatment consistently undertaken, aids strengthening of the musculoskeletal structure and as a result reducing incidence of pain flare ups.
Benefits this treatment brings
Upanaham remains an efficient therapy addressing musculoskeletal conditions and also holds significance within Ayurvedic principles as an effective for holistic healing. Some benefits are:
Reduce Swelling And Inflammation
The anti-inflammatory components in the herbal pack penetrate the skin and act on the inflammatory mediators, reducing swelling and inflammation.
Pain management
Helps reduce localized pain in the joints and muscles. Bandaging the inflamed area helps balance the vitiated Vata dosha that is responsible for pain and ache thus effectively alleviating from pain and discomfort.
Improved Circulation
A rise in body temperature in the bandaged area dilates the blood vessels. Improved circulation enables optimal nutrient and oxygen supply to the affected site and helps flush out the accumulated toxins (ama) easily.
Reduces Muscle & Joint Stiffness
Upanaham helps soothe and relax sore muscles, lubricates the joints thus reducing joint stiffness and thereby improving both musculoskeletal and joint health.
Detoxification
Upanaham raises the body temperature which in turn dilates the peripheral blood vessels, improves blood flow to the affected area and helps rid the body of unwanted ama (toxins) that get accumulated in the affected area.
Joint Mobility and Flexibility
The Ayurvedic medicated herbal pack can help nourish the joint tissues, remove metabolic waste accumulated in the joints, and enhance joint movements.
