How Karna Pooranam Works?

Karna Pooranam involves the application of warm medicated oils into the ears. It- helps balance the Vata dosha, calm the mind, and treat various ear-related issues, including earaches, infections, and hearing problems. The warm oil nourishes and soothes the ear canal, promotes relaxation, and supports the overall health of the ear, skin, and surrounding tissues. The oils used are chosen for their therapeutic qualities and can help cleanse, detoxify, and restore balance to the body.

Karna Pooranam Procedure

Preparation: The patient is made to lie down in a comfortable position, with one side of the head tilted slightly to allow easy access to the ear. 

Oil Application: Warm, medicated oil (such as sesame or herbal oil) is carefully poured into the ear canal. The practitioner may use a gentle dropper or a small vessel to apply the oil in a controlled manner. 

Retention of Oil: The oil is left inside the ear for 10 to 15 minutes. During this time, the oil gently soaks into the ear canal, soothing any irritation and promoting relaxation. 

Post-treatment Care: After the oil is removed, the ear may be massaged gently, and the patient can be instructed to rest for a short period to allow the healing properties of the oil to fully take effect.

Real stories of rejuvenation, wellness and lasting health through ayurveda

Ram prasath
I’ve been seeing doctors for the past 10 years, dealing with everything from a simple cold to more serious stuff like shoulder tendonitis, which required an injection. Wanting to avoid ongoing treatments, I turned to Ayurveda. Since then, my shoulders are back to feeling as good as new. Later on, I also got treated for ulcerative colitis and it’s all gone now. It’s amazing—every issue I’ve had has been fixed without any long-term problems.

I took treatment in this Hospital for knee pain and blood circulation in left foot from 5th Sept to 16th Sept 2024. I took a consultation with Dr. Sri Krishna, a Competent, Calm, and Cool person. Above all 6th Generation doctor of this ancient hospital! There is a say that, when you meet your doctor, half of your ailments will disappear, actually it happened with me! He advised me to take 10 days of external treatment like Abhyanga, Janu Basti.. along with oral medicines...

I met Dr.Sampoorna who helped me with the treatment for my vericose veins. I underwent 14 days treatment in Shree Ayurvedic hospital. The 5 girls who helped me with the treatment were really kind and helpful. Even the staffs were really kind. I can see a good improvement in the condition after getting the treatment. Hope it gets even more better in the future.

When it comes to ayurveda in Chennai, Shree Ayurvedic hospital has all ayurvedic facilities under one roof. Good response and care from hospital staffs. I consulted Dr. Uday Kiran in this hospital for urological issues. He is a humble person, with experience in ayurvedic surgeries. He is one of the very few Ayurvedic surgeons in Chennai treating ano-rectal and Urological issues. He listens patiently and is ready to answer all our questions. Even if we ask any questions over phone Or whatsApp, he will answer. Many thanks to him.
