What Is Ayurvedic Potli Massage? How Does It Help with Pain Relief and Muscle Relaxation? - #13422

Anonymously

I’ve heard a lot about Ayurvedic Potli massage, where herbal poultices (Potlis) filled with medicinal herbs and rice are applied to the body. I’m curious about how Potli massage works in relieving pain, stiffness, and muscle tension. I’ve read that Potli massage is commonly used in the treatment of arthritis, back pain, and muscle injuries. Some of the benefits of Potli massage include pain relief, improved circulation, and reduced inflammation. I want to know how effective this therapy is for chronic conditions and whether it provides lasting relief or just temporary improvement. If anyone has experienced Ayurvedic Potli massage, please share your experience. How did it help with reducing pain, relaxing muscles, or improving mobility? How long did it take to notice significant results, and were there any side effects?

Ayurvedic Potli massage uses heated herbal poultices to relieve pain, stiffness, and inflammation. It’s highly effective for arthritis, back pain, muscle injuries, and joint stiffness by improving blood circulation, reducing inflammation, and relaxing tense muscles. How It Works: Warm herbal Potlis are pressed onto affected areas, allowing heat and medicinal herbs to penetrate deep into muscles and joints. Stimulates circulation, reduces toxins, and enhances flexibility. Benefits: ✔️ Pain relief (especially for chronic conditions like arthritis). ✔️ Muscle relaxation and reduced stiffness. ✔️ Improved mobility and flexibility. Effectiveness & Duration: Most people feel relief immediately after a session. For chronic pain, 4–6 sessions over a few weeks provide longer-lasting results.
