Applying SDM Brihat Saindavadi Taila can indeed be beneficial for joint pain, especially in the knees and elbows, thanks to its potential vata-balancing properties. The oil, derived from classical Siddha-Ayurvedic formulations, is designed to alleviate discomfort by enhancing circulation and soothing inflammations that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Use it directly on the affected area, preferably after a warm bath or shower when your pores are open to enhance absorption. Apply a small amount of the oil—about a teaspoon should do—warm it between your palms, then gently massage it onto the skin over your knees and elbows. You don’t need a full massage routine unless you find it relaxing; a 5-10 minute application with circular motions should suffice. Consistent daily use, ideally morning and evening, tends to yield better results over time.
Typically, you might notice some relief within a few weeks, but results can vary depending on individual baselines and adherence to other holistic measures like diet and rest. Keep in mind that while this taila can provide symptomatic relief, addressing overall lifestyle, including diet and exercise, is crucial for comprehensive wellness. If joint pain persists or worsens, especially if it interferes with your daily activities, considering a consultation with a qualified practitioner would be wise to ensure there aren’t other underlying issues at play.
