- Jambeera Pinda Swedam
At Al Raqi Ayurvedic Panchakarma Center, we bring you one of the most powerful and revitalizing therapies from the treasure trove of Ayurveda — Jambeera Pinda Swedam, also known as Lemon Bolus Therapy. This unique treatment blends the healing properties of lemons with medicated oils and herbs, providing relief from pain, inflammation, and stiffness while nourishing the body tissues.
Whether you are dealing with chronic joint issues, muscle spasms, or simply looking to detoxify and rejuvenate, Jambeera Pinda Swedam offers a natural and holistic path to healing.
What is Jambeera Pinda Swedam?
Jambeera Pinda Swedam is a specialized sweating therapy (Swedana) in which a warm bolus made of lemon slices and herbal ingredients is used to massage the body. These boluses, called “pindas”, are heated in medicated oil and gently massaged over affected areas to stimulate circulation, relieve pain, and soften stiff muscles.
The key ingredient, Jambeera (lemon), has anti-inflammatory, analgesic, and detoxifying properties that make this therapy especially effective in managing musculoskeletal conditions.
How is Pathrapottali Swedam Done?
The procedure begins with the selection of specific herbal leaves like tamarind, castor, moringa, and turmeric, known for their anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. These herbs are sautéed with Ayurvedic oils and tied into warm bundles. The therapist then applies the warm bundles in rhythmic strokes over affected areas or the whole body.
Each session lasts about 45–60 minutes and may be followed by Abhyangam (oil massage) or steam therapy for enhanced results.
Key Ingredients in the Therapy
The bolus used in Jambeera Pinda Swedam is prepared fresh using:
- Lemon (Jambeera) – for its anti-inflammatory and astringent effects
- Rock Salt (Saindhava) – to enhance circulation and reduce stiffness
- Turmeric (Haridra) – a powerful anti-inflammatory agent
- Medicated Oils – usually Dhanwantharam or Kottamchukkadi thailam to nourish and lubricate joints and tissues
- Herbal Powders – to enhance the therapeutic benefits
These ingredients are fried together in the oil, wrapped in cotton cloth, and used as a warm bolus to massage the body.
How is the Treatment Done?
