Nasya
What to expect
A session begins with a light massage of the face, head and neck, followed by mild steam. The prescribed medicated oil or ghee is then placed in the nostrils while you lie back, and you rest for a few minutes afterwards.
Nasya is usually prescribed as a short course, and you will be told what to avoid on those days, such as cold drinks, head baths and dust. Related head and eye therapies such as Netra Tarpana may be suggested alongside when appropriate.
Who it is for
Nasya is considered for selected concerns of the head, neck and sinuses, after assessment. It is not given during an active cold with fever.
Usually not suitable during
- Pregnancy
- Acute cold with fever
- Immediately after meals
- Right after a head bath
- Severe weakness
- Some heart conditions
Preparation, therapy, recovery. In that order.

It depends on you. A supportive therapy such as Abhyanga or Shirodhara typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. A full programme with preparation, main therapy and recovery typically runs from about one to three weeks. The exact length is decided after assessment.
Panchakarma is a structured medical procedure, not a spa routine. It is planned only after Dr. Aditya Kunal assesses you, and the intensity is adjusted to your strength. It is not suitable for everyone, which is why no therapy starts without a consultation.
Panchakarma is usually avoided or postponed during pregnancy, acute fever or infection, severe weakness, and in some heart conditions. Young children and frail elders need special care. If you have a serious or ongoing condition, your regular doctor stays in charge of it, and we work alongside, never instead.
No. Never stop or change a prescribed medicine without the doctor who prescribed it. Bring your prescriptions to the consultation so your plan is made around them.
Light, warm, freshly cooked food such as khichdi, moong dal and rice, with warm water through the day. Specific diet instructions are given for each phase, and they matter as much as the therapy itself.
