Potli Kerala Therapy

One of the most popular massage therapies practiced in India, potlis have been used in South East Asia, especially in Thailand, as a natural remedy for centuries. Potli massage therapy is done using heated herbal pouches also known as potlis (or poultice) that are used to rejuvenate, relax and nourish the affected area. When these potlis are placed on the body, they have a therapeutic effect. Well, aren’t we all looking for that massage that heals our pain as well as leaves us feeling refreshed? Ayurveda is known to be one of the oldest medicinal traditions in India and potli massage therapy finds its roots in this science. Potlis contain a selection of Ayurvedic herbs, both, fresh and dried, that are carefully chosen based on your Ayurvedic constitution and the issue that you’re being treated for.

HOW POTLI KERALA THERAPY WORKS

Potli massage therapy is an age-old technique instrumental in alleviating pain from illnesses such as osteoarthritis and spondylitis. It is highly recommended for women over 30 who have higher chances of facing bone-related concerns.

What is potli massage therapy?

Potli massage therapy is one of the most popular massage therapies practiced in India and South East Asia, especially in Thailand. It uses heated herbal pouches (potlis or poultice) to rejuvenate, relax, and nourish the affected area. When placed on the body, these potlis have a therapeutic effect.

What do potlis contain?

Potlis contain a selection of Ayurvedic herbs, both fresh and dried, chosen based on your Ayurvedic constitution and the issue being treated. They are packed into a muslin cloth and used in two ways:

  • Wet massage: Potlis are dipped in warm medicated oil
  • Dry massage: Potlis are dipped in sand or herbal powder
  • The potlis are then massaged onto specific pressure points to help heal the body and stimulate blood circulation.

How does it work?

Potli massages work on an age-old philosophy based on the confluence of fire and water elements combined with specific herbs. The heated potli opens the pores and relaxes the muscles, allowing the carefully selected herbs to work on the body and mind.

What is it used for?

Potli massage is often recommended for various conditions:

  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Spondylitis
  • Frozen shoulders
  • Osteoarthritis
  • The treatment helps to relieve pain and inflammation, improve blood circulation and flexibility.

What are the kinds of herbs used?

Different herbs are used for specific purposes:

  • Ashwagandha: Relaxes tensed muscles and helps reduce stress
  • Mustard and neem: Used for skin and body detox
  • Turmeric and ginger: Revitalise and purify the body
  • Rosemary and rice: Improve blood circulation and ease muscle tension
  • Aloe vera and onion: Reduce inflammation
  • These herbs can be used singularly or in combination with other wet or dry herbs as deemed fit by your expert.

Important Considerations

Before opting for potli massage therapy:

  • Consult an ayurvedic practitioner or therapist to determine the right potli content for your specific condition and body type.
  • Inform your therapist about any existing health conditions or allergies.
  • Follow post-treatment care instructions carefully to maximize the benefits of the therapy.
  • Regular sessions may be required for chronic conditions; discuss the frequency with your practitioner.
