nasya nasal treatment
Ayurvedic Nasal Treatment: In Ayurveda, the nose is the door to consciousness. It is through the nose that prana,life energy force, enters and is circulated through the body. During this treatment, a blend of herbal oils are used to help clear sinuses, promote clarity and focus, and provide headache relief. A light face massage is executed as well to help with oil absorption. Depending on a person’s imbalances specific ayurvedic oils and/or herbs are used.
By nourishing the nasal passage the breath is slightly moistened. The breath is what carries prana. The lubrication that is provided aids in heightening our cerebral faculties and sensory organs.
