Revinto Mahamasha Taila, traditionally used in Ayurveda for joint pain, especially aligns with situations of aggravated Vata dosha, which may be contributing to your discomfort. Joint pains, particularly those lingering in the knees and wrists, often signal an imbalance in Vata, creating dryness and stiffness in the joints. This oil works by counteracting those qualities, aiming to reduce inflammation and provide pain relief.
To use Revinto Mahamasha Taila, apply it gently to the affected areas, massaging in circular motions to promote better absorption and circulation. Ideally, do this twice a day, focusing on the areas most afflicted – the knees and wrists in your case. Warming the oil slightly before application enhances its penetration through the skin. Leave it on for at least 30 minutes and then wipe it off or take a warm bath.
Given your current regimen of medications, particularly ones that made you feel “loopy,” it’s wise to consult with a healthcare provider or an experienced Ayurvedic practitioner, especially about potential interactions when combining treatments. While oils like Mahamasha Taila are generally applied externally and considered safe, individual reactions can vary, especially with concurrent pharmaceutical drug use.
Incorporating gentle exercises that improve circulation alongside the oil can further alleviate stiffness. Moreover, maintaining a warm diet with easily digestible, Vata-pacifying foods can be beneficial. Practice these alongside your yoga, and monitor how your body responds to the treatment over a few weeks.
Keep in mind, if joint pain worsens or doesn’t show improvement even when integrating these practices, seeking a more comprehensive evaluation might be necessary as deeper imbalances or medical conditions could be at play.
