About Kashayadhara
This treatment acts as an external purification process. Depending on the herbs used, it can be deeply cooling or metabolic-cleansing, often serving as a key therapy for stubborn dermatological issues.
When Kashayadhara may — and may not — be appropriate
May be appropriate for
- Psoriasis, eczema, chronic fatigue syndrome, insomnia, and high-Pitta neurological disorders.
When it should NOT be done
- Severe dry skin conditions, low blood pressure, acute chills, and open active skin sloughing.
The decision is always individualised by your treating physician.
What to Expect During Kashayadhara
A profoundly relaxing, non-greasy herbal rinse that leaves the skin feeling clean, calm, and relieved of chronic itchiness.
