Nasyam

Nasyam is a very powerful rejuvenative Kalaripayattu therapy that involves administering medicated herbal oil through the nose. The toxins accumulated in the throat, nose and head are eliminated through this therapy. Depending on the area of the inflammation, the therapist will advise a methodology to heat up the inflammation and prepare the nasal passage to receive the oil. It can be either through inhalation of herbal steam or through a face and neck massage with a heated cloth. Once the body is prepared to receive the medicated herbal oil, it is administered through the nose followed by massage of the face and neck to allow the medicine to seep in.
