Pinda Sweda
Pinda Sweda, also known as Pindasveda or Patra Pinda Sweda, finds its roots in ancient Ayurvedic texts, notably in the Sushruta Samhita and Charaka Samhita. The term “Pinda” refers to boluses or poultices, and “Sweda” translates to sweating or sudation. This therapeutic modality harnesses the potency of specific herbs, tailored to individual constitutions and health needs, to create compresses that are then applied to the body to address various musculoskeletal issues, joint pain, and conditions related to Vata dosha imbalance.
