Dhara Therapies
Ayurvedic Stream Therapies for Mind and Body Rejuvenation
Dhara is one of Ayurveda’s most celebrated therapies, involving the continuous pouring of warm medicated oils, milk, buttermilk, or herbal decoctions over specific parts of the body. At My Medi Plus, we offer three specialized Dhara treatments — Pizhichil, Takra Dhara, and Shirodhara. Each therapy is designed to soothe the nervous system, relieve stress, and promote deep healing, while offering unique benefits tailored to different health needs.
Pizhichil (Oil Bath Therapy)
Pizhichil combines the therapeutic power of warm medicated oils with gentle massage. In this therapy, a steady stream of oil is poured over the entire body or targeted areas for a prescribed time. It deeply nourishes tissues, promotes circulation, and supports healing in musculoskeletal and neurological conditions.
