Pinda Sweda is an ayurvedic massage therapy involving sudation, the process of sweating. Pinda means bolus, and Sweda means sweating in Sanskrit. A bolus is a cotton wrap containing herbs. This massage is performed using this bolus after dipping in warm medicated oil. Throughout the session, the bolus is used to massage the whole body concentrating the muscles, ligaments, tendons, and joints. Thus, Pinda Sweda improves blood circulation, reduces stiffness and pain, relieves stress, enhances healing from injuries, and diseases of the musculo-skeletal system.
