How is Ishtika Sveda done?
- You will be sitting comfortably in a chair.
- Your foot will be massaged (Padaabhyanga) with a suitable ayurvedic oil. If you have a burning sensation we will be using our in-house prepared Pinda thailam.
- The hot bricks are place on a tray.
- Dashamula kashayam, a decoction prepared with Vata pacifying herbs, or washed rice water is poured over the hot brick.
- The foot is placed parallel to the hot brick which is emitting steam.
