Alabu Raktamokshana - #5256
I’ve been suffering from severe headaches and stiffness in my neck for months now, and conventional treatments haven’t been working. A friend suggested I look into an Ayurvedic therapy called alabu raktamokshana, but I’m not entirely sure what it involves. From what I’ve read so far, alabu raktamokshana is a type of bloodletting technique that uses gourd instruments, but the details are still confusing to me. I’d like to know how alabu raktamokshana is performed. Is it painful, and what kind of conditions does it treat other than headaches? My friend mentioned it helps with detoxifying the blood and reducing vata imbalances, but I’m not sure if that’s directly related to my symptoms. Can alabu raktamokshana help with migraines, or is it more suited for chronic pain and inflammation? Also, is alabu raktamokshana safe for everyone, or are there certain conditions where it’s not recommended? I’m a bit concerned about hygiene too—how do practitioners ensure it’s done in a safe and sterile environment? If you’ve tried alabu raktamokshana or know someone who has, please share your experiences and whether it was worth trying.
