What are the benefits of Njavarakizhi treatment, and who should try it? - #12791
I have been dealing with muscle stiffness and joint pain for a while, and I recently heard about Njavarakizhi treatment, an Ayurvedic therapy that involves a special type of rice massage. I want to know how it works and whether it can help with pain relief and body rejuvenation. From what I understand, Njavarakizhi treatment uses cooked Njavara rice bundled in cloth and soaked in herbal decoctions and milk. But how does this therapy help with pain and inflammation? Does it work mainly by providing heat therapy, or does the medicinal rice have specific healing properties? I also want to know if Njavarakizhi treatment is suitable for everyone. Can it be used for nerve-related pain like sciatica, or is it mainly for muscular issues? Also, how many sessions are needed to see noticeable benefits? If anyone has undergone Njavarakizhi treatment, please share your experience. Did it provide lasting pain relief? How often should one take this therapy for the best results? Also, were there any precautions or aftercare steps recommended?
