What Is Elakizhi Treatment?

In Elakizhi treatment, medicinal leaves are tied into bundles, warmed, and gently massaged over the body. This therapy can help relieve pain, reduce inflammation, improve flexibility, and support the health of muscles and joints.

How Elakizhi Works in Ayurveda

Ayurveda explains that joint pain and stiffness often result from an aggravated Vata dosha and poor tissue nourishment. Elakizhi combines heat and herbal benefits to improve circulation, relax muscles, reduce stiffness, and support joint movement. It can also help ease nerve discomfort and tiredness.
