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.

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.

Shree AYURVEDIC has highly qualified specialist doctors who provide best advices and treatment for multi disorders. Dr.Srikrishna’s guidance and treatment assisted in overcoming weight issues and digestive problems. I would recommend people to visit themselves to get better information on their life routine and personal health management with many varieties of treatment which offered by Shree AYURVEDIC with their own patented medicine.

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.
