Ekanga Dhara

(Local liquid pouring therapy)

Ekanga Dhara is an ayurvedic soothing treatment where a continuous stream of warm medicated oil is poured over a painful body part. It helps reduce inflammation and chronic pain and alleviates musculoskeletal discomfort.

How Ekanga Dhara Works?

Ekangam Dhara is continuous pouring of warm, medicated oils or herbal liquids onto the affected area in a rhythmic, consistent flow. This Ayurvedic treatment is designed to provide relief from localized pain, muscle stiffness, and joint discomfort. The steady application of oil or liquid helps relax muscles, improve blood circulation, and reduce inflammation, release toxins, and nourish the tissues, promoting deep healing and rejuvenation.

Ekanga Dhara Procedure

Preparation: The patient is positioned comfortably, with the affected area exposed to allow easy access for the therapy. The practitioner may use a towel or cloth to protect other areas from the oil. 

Application of Medicated Oil: Warm herbal oils or medicated liquids are poured from a special vessel in a steady stream over the targeted area, ensuring deep penetration of the healing properties. 

Rhythmic Flow: The practitioner maintains the oil flow for about 20-30 minutes, ensuring the oil is absorbed into the skin and muscles. 

Post-treatment Care: After the session, the excess oil is wiped away gently, and the area may be massaged to enhance circulation and relaxation.

    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.
