What Is Kizhi Ayurvedic Treatment? How Does It Work for Pain Relief and Muscle Relaxation? - #13401

Anonymously

I’ve heard about Kizhi treatment in Ayurveda, which is said to be effective in relieving joint pain, muscle stiffness, and promoting healing. Kizhi involves medicated poultices (Potlis) filled with herbal powders, leaves, or rice that are applied to the body with heat to stimulate blood circulation, relax muscles, and reduce pain and inflammation. Some of the types of Kizhi treatment include Podi Kizhi (powder poultice) for muscle relaxation, Ela Kizhi (herbal leaf poultice) for joint pain, and Njavara Kizhi (rice poultice) for overall nourishment and healing. I want to understand how effective Kizhi treatment is for chronic conditions like arthritis, sciatica, and back pain. If anyone has undergone Kizhi treatment, please share your experience. Did it help with reducing pain, improving mobility, or relieving muscle tension? How many sessions did you need, and did the results last long-term?

Doctors’ responses

Kizhi treatment in Ayurveda is a specialized therapy that involves the application of heated herbal poultices (Potlis) to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. It is commonly used for chronic conditions like arthritis, sciatica, back pain, and muscle stiffness. Types of Kizhi Treatment & Benefits: Podi Kizhi (Choorna Kizhi): Uses dry herbal powders for muscle relaxation, pain relief, and reducing stiffness. Ela Kizhi: Herbal leaves are used to relieve joint pain, improve circulation, and reduce swelling. Njavara Kizhi: A rice-based poultice used for deep nourishment, strengthening muscles, and improving mobility. Effectiveness & Duration: Many people experience immediate relief from muscle pain and stiffness after the first few sessions. For chronic conditions, multiple sessions (5-14) are typically required for long-term benefits. It improves blood circulation, flexibility, and nerve function, making it beneficial for arthritis, spondylosis, and post-injury recovery. Personal Experiences: Users report that Kizhi provides deep relaxation, reduces swelling, and enhances mobility. However, sustained benefits often require dietary adjustments and Ayurvedic lifestyle practices.
