Svedana (Sudation) is the Pre-Panchakarma treatment procedure that relieves stiffness, heaviness, coldness, and causes perspiration. A traditional Kerala treatment procedure called pizhichil works well for a number of rheumatic conditions.It is a modified version of Kayaseka in which the body is massaged gently for a predetermined amount of time while heated medicated oil is applied in a specific way. For one to one and a half hours, medicated oil is applied to the patient’s body in seven different postures.
The warm medicated oil and massage used in pizhichil enable the oil to deeply permeate the skin, and perspiration promotes the removal of pollutants and poisons. This detoxification procedure revitalizes the body from the inside out and adds to the overall cleansing process.
Better oxygenation of tissues and organs is ensured while blood flow is enhanced by the rhythmic massage and constant application of warm oil. Improved circulation promotes immunological function, cell regeneration and repair, and detoxification.
The heated medicated oils used in pizhichil are combined with strong botanicals to offer a profoundly calming experience. The gentle massage strokes are designed to be customized to individual needs. The skin, muscles, and joints are nourished by these oils, and the therapy is particularly beneficial when it is massaged gently.
Pizhichil is renowned for its rhythmic oil flow, and when combined with light massage, it promotes profound relaxation and soothes the nervous system. It encourages a contemplative state that enables the mind to recover from mental exhaustion, worry, or insomnia.
Since pizhichil hydrates and warms the body, it is particularly helpful in enhancing the immunological response. Enhancing the body’s mental and physical well-being, promoting a balanced dosha state, and harmonizing doshas all increase metabolism.
Pizhichil treatment is equipped with highly recommended goodness of medicated oils and heat for several of health conditions, including:
