Nasya (Nasyam) Therapy at Dhanwantari Ayurvedic Detox Center, Tiruvannamalai
Easy, effective Ayurvedic care for sinus, headaches, snoring, and sleep—personalised by expert Vaidyas
Welcome to Dhanwantari Ayurvedic Detox Center in Tiruvannamalai—your trusted destination for authentic nasya therapy (also written nasyam therapy). If you’re searching for “nasya therapy near me,” want to understand what nasya is, or need relief from sinus, headaches, allergies, snoring, or disturbed sleep, this post explains everything in clear, local English.

What Is Nasya / Nasyam Therapy?
Definition
Nasya therapy is a classical Ayurvedic procedure in which gentle, herbalised oil or medicated ghee is instilled as drops through the nostrils. In Ayurveda, the nose is the doorway to the head; therefore, nasya supports the sinuses, throat, head, eyes, voice, mind, and sleep.
What Is Nasyam Treatment in Ayurveda?
It is both cleansing and nourishing for the head–neck region (Urdhva Jatrugata). Based on your dosha and condition, our Vaidya recommends a gentle daily micro-dose or a short therapeutic course.
Nasyam Therapy Benefits
Key Outcomes You Can Expect
- Relief in sinusitis, rhinitis, and seasonal allergies
- Reduced frequency and intensity of headaches and migraines
- Opens nasal passages to reduce snoring and improve sleep
- Soothes throat and supports a clear voice (useful for teachers/singers)
- Promotes mental clarity, lighter head, and less facial heaviness
- Helps address nasal dryness from AC/climate

Types of Nasya We Offer
Selected by Your Vaidya

Which Oil Is Good for Nasya?
Personalised Oil Selection
- Anu Taila — balanced choice; popular for gentle nasya therapy at home (micro-dose)

At Dhanwantari, the physician selects the right oil and dose for you so it’s effective and comfortable—not guesswork.
Nasyam Treatment Time & Frequency
When and How Often?
- Best time of day: Morning (after elimination, before heavy meals). For insomnia/anxiety, early evening may be advised.
- Session duration: The nasyam treatment procedure typically takes 10–20 minutes including preparation.
- Course length: For nasya how many days and nasya how many times: micro-dose can be long-term with breaks; therapeutic courses often run 5–14 days depending on the condition.
Nasyam Treatment Procedure at Our Center
Step-by-Step
- Assessment: Brief check-up for symptoms, history, and dosha status.
- Purva Karma (Preparation): Warm face/neck massage with herbal oil + gentle steam to open sinuses.
- Pradhana Karma (Main Step): You lie on your back, head slightly tilted; medicated oil is instilled as drops in each nostril; you inhale gently while the therapist massages nose/cheeks/forehead.
- Paschat Karma (After-care): Spit out any oil/mucus reaching the throat; rest for a few minutes; avoid cold wind/fan directly on the face.
Most clients report immediate ease in breathing and a lighter head. If you wonder “is nasya painful,” the answer is no—done correctly, nasya is typically soothing.
