What Is Pichu Treatment?

In Pichu therapy, a cotton pad soaked in warm, medicated oil is placed on a specific area for a set period of time. This treatment can help ease pain, calm nerves, reduce stiffness, and support healing in muscles, joints, and the nervous system.

How Pichu Works in Ayurveda

Ayurveda teaches that pain and nervous system problems often come from aggravated Vata dosha. Pichu helps by giving steady warmth and oil to the area, calming Vata and supporting healing. When used on the head, it can also help with mental relaxation.
