Medicated Herbal Wash
~ Kshalanam ~
Kshalanam or Medicated Herbal Wash Treatment is a rejuvenating cleansing procedure, using medicated Ayurvedic liquids. The slow rhythmic flow of medicated liquid has multiple benefits, including disinfection of genitalia and other wounds, eye nourishment, detoxification to purify the whole body or specific regions, improved skin texture, better sleep quality and relief from emotional turmoil. The therapy is both preventive and curative and offers the ultimate healing experience.
​
Two types for specific purposes:
Yoni Kshalanam, a potent Ayurvedic Herb Wash therapy, similar to the ‘Vaginal Douche’ process, designed to manage gynecological conditions such as vaginal itching, vaginal discharge and fungal infections naturally. This involves washing external female genitalia as well as inner tract using a specific sterilized apparatus and medicated Kashaya (herb medicine infused liquid) as required for the diseased state. The entire procedure is carried out in the most hygienic conditions. After the process the patient is asked to lie down comfortably and rest for a specified time. It is proven effective in afflictions such as Leucorrhea, Cervicitis, Genito Urinary infections, Infertility etc.
Netra Kshalanam, a rejuvenating Herbal Wash Therapy for eye nourishment and acuity. A soothing eye cleansing procedure wherein the eyes are washed with a stream of medicated fluid and then relaxing eye drops are put in the eyes. The herbal decoction is made to flow from the medial cantus (the inner corner of the eye where upper and lower lids meet) to the lateral cantus (the outer corner of the eye where the upper and lower lids meet) of the eye. This helps wash out toxins and polluting foreign particles from the eyes, thereby rejuvenating and revitalizing tired and strained eyes, promoting clarity and a renewed vision. The eye muscles weakened due to excessive screen exposure get strengthened with repeated Netra Kshalanam sessions. This also helps in arresting the agerelated degenerative changes in the eyes.

Enhanced Senses
Netra Kshalanam, specifically designed for eye health, can help reduce eyestrain, prevent dryness, remove impurities, support vision and reduce the stress and strain in the eye muscles.

Balancing Doshas
Ayurveda considers three doshas- Vata, Pitta and Kapha as the fundamental energies controlling the body. Slight variation in dosha functioning can lead to various health concerns. Kshalanam helps restore the vitiated doshas and prevent the imbalance.

Women’s Health
A medicated herbal wash instead of chemical products helps treat vaginal itching and discomfort effectively and at the same time reduces reoccurrence of fungal and bacterial infections in intimate areas.
