As outlined elsewhere, the practice of Ayurveda in Kerala has evolved as a class of its own and in a sense become the hallmark of Ayurvedic treatment itself. There has been a lot of interest and appreciation for these techniques in India and abroad for the simple reason that they have proved to be out-standing in efficacy. An attempt is made here to briefly outline the special techniques of Kerala in vogue today.
Pinda-sweda:
Herein, the whole body or any specific part thereof is made to perspire by the application of medicinal puddings externally in the form of bolus tied up in a muslin bag. The method has been prevalent in Kerala from tome immemorial and is still in practice. The body must be well anointed before it is subjected to heat and diaphoresis. Generally a course of this treatment lasts for 7 days, 14 days or 21 days. Great restrictions are to be observed during these days of actual treatment as well as for an equal number of f days thereafter in respect of diet as well as physical and mental exertion of every type.
Patra-potala sweda:
This is the process of including perspiration on a well anointed person with the help of bolus containing fried leaves of medicinal plants along with pieces of lemon, turmeric powder etc dipped into a vessel containing warm oil.
Churna-pinda sweda:
In this process the bolus containing powdered drugs is warmed by dipping in warm oil and gently massaged over the body to induce perspiration.
Kaya-seka:
It is the process by which the body is made to perspire by means of application of warm medicated oils. Warm oil is poured on the body by dipping pieces of clean cloth in the warm oil and squeezing the cloth over b the body or by the use of small handy undies at a medium speed.
