Ayurvedic eye therapies at Amay

Tharpana

Tharpana at Amay India, Mysuru

In Ayurveda, Tharpana is a therapeutic procedure that involves nourishing and rejuvenating the eyes through a specialized form of eye treatment. It’s primarily aimed at maintaining eye health and comfort, and easing dryness and strain. For two to ten minutes, pure medicinal ghee is applied to the eyes. The procedure is traditionally used to nourish and cool the eyes. A specially prepared medicated oil containing Brimhana Dravyas is poured over the eyes, and the patient is made to lie on his or her back on the dhroni. The patient is winked for a minimum of about 35 minutes, gradually increasing daily for a maximum of 50 minutes and gradually decreasing vice-versa. A paste of blackgram mixed with lukewarm water is formed in a receptacle around the orbit. Usually, this is done every seven to eleven days.The therapy may help ease dryness, discomfort and a burning sensation in the eyes. It also strengthens the muscles surrounding the eyes and relieves eye strain from things like computers, driving, late-night activities, strong sunshine, welding rays, and furnace heat. It is commonly used for tired and strained eyes. Conditions such as cataract, retinopathy or ptosis need assessment and treatment by an eye specialist.

Benefits: 

  • May help tired eyes feel clearer and more comfortable.
  • May help reduce the look of dark circles under the eyes. 
  • Rejuvenation of the eyes
  • nourishes and soothes the eyes

Putapaka

Putapaka at Amay India, Mysuru

Putapaka is a practice in which a prepared frame is used to hold lukewarm medicated juice (swarasa), created with the aid of putapaka vidhi, in the eyes for an estimated period of time. Following tarpana therapy, putapaka is performed to strengthen the eyes.

This method is used after tarpana with the goal of reducing tarpana’s negative consequences. Our doctor may also suggest it on its own for eye irritation; eye infections need prompt care from an eye specialist. During putapaka, the medication’s potency is transferred to the inner layers of the eyes, keeping them heated and in contact with the epithelium.

It increases circulation, speeds up cell synthesis, and helps to eliminate obstructions in the channels of the eyes through its therapeutic properties. Additionally, it removes dirt and dead skin cells from the eyes. The eye santarpana procedures are putapaka and tarpanam. Putapaka helps restore overly nourished or oily eyes to a normal pH; for this reason, it is always used after tarpanam.

Benefits: 

  • It helps with dry eyes.
  • It may help the eyes feel refreshed.
  • It may help ease eye strain from screens and reading.
  • It supports overall eye comfort.

Seka

Seka at Amay India, Mysuru

Netra Pariseka, also called Netra Seka, is an age-old Ayurvedic treatment method that is valued in Ayurveda as a soothing therapy for the eyes. During this painstaking process, a finely blended, medicinal liquid is carefully poured over closed eyelids from a height for a predetermined amount of time in a regulated stream. This traditional method uses specific Ayurvedic medicated liquids to help soothe tired or irritated eyes.

Netra Pariseka, which offers a comprehensive approach to eye care, is based on the principles of Ayurveda and seeks to revitalize and harmonize the delicate ocular tissues. The soft trickle of medicated liquid over the closed eyelids facilitates the infusion of medicinal ingredients and creates a supportive environment that promotes the recovery of eye health.

The method’s effectiveness depends on its careful application and adherence to time constraints, which enable the therapeutic qualities in the liquid to interact positively with the eyes, resolving issues and supporting healing. Using the natural healing properties of remedies taken from nature, Ayurvedic practitioners offer this age-old approach as supportive eye care.

The combination of Netra Pariseka’s emphasis on individualized care and the therapeutic efficacy of Ayurvedic formulations highlights the value of this age-old method of eye care. Its subtle application demonstrates a deep comprehension of holistic medicine and emphasizes the continued value of ancient Ayurvedic methods in supporting ocular wellbeing and eye comfort.
