Pathrapottali Swedam in UAE – Herbal Leaf Bundle Therapy for Pain Relief & Rejuvenation

Al Raqi Physiotherapy Center in Dubai offers Pathrapottali Swedam (also known as Elakizhi), a deeply rejuvenating herbal leaf bundle therapy. This traditional Ayurvedic treatment blends the power of healing herbs, warm medicated oils, and therapeutic heat to ease joint pain, stiffness, muscle spasms, and inflammation. Recognized as a highly effective form of sudation therapy within the Panchakarma system, it helps restore mobility, improve circulation, and reduce chronic pain naturally.


Whether you’re dealing with arthritis, musculoskeletal conditions, or post-injury discomfort, Pathrapottali Swedam provides a safe and holistic path to lasting relief.

What is Pathrapottali Swedam?

Pathrapottali Swedam (Elakizhi) is an Ayurvedic fomentation therapy where fresh herbal leaves are fried in medicated oil, tied in cloth pouches (kizhi), and gently massaged over the body. The warmth and medicinal properties of the herbs penetrate deep into tissues, helping to relieve pain and improve flexibility.


The therapy primarily targets Vata-related disorders, making it ideal for joint pain, nerve issues, and mobility limitations. At Al Raqi in the UAE, this treatment is carefully customized based on your prakriti (body constitution) and condition.

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.
