Ayurveda Therapy :- KARNAPOORANA

Karnapoorana (Effective Ear therapy)

Ayurveda has a number of therapies for building health and wellness. Each therapy targets specific parts for complete healing and optimal functions of the part and associated functions thereof. In such context,  Karna Poorana is a specific therapy aimed at improving the functions of ear, and associated parts and functions as well.

Karna refers to ‘ear’ and Poorana means ‘Full.’ It refers to filling the ear canal. The therapy involves gently filling the medicated herbal oil to ears until the ear canal filled with the oil. It involves putting only from 4 to 10 drops of medicated oil as required. The Ayur therapy Karna Poorana means different in a different context. It refers to enhancing the functions of the ear to the fullest.

Ear is the major part dominated by Vata dosha. Since it is more vulnerable to excess vata, which is made of air and ether, ear is predominately affected by Vata dosha. Cold and dry breeze, excessive sounds, bombarding noises, etc affects the ears, which in turn impact the vata balance in the body. By stimulating, protecting and cleaning the vital part of Vata dosha, vata balance can be retained. It is an excellent therapy for vata imbalance and treats the diseases cause due to vata imbalance.

How it is performed:

Karna poorana is something like soaking the ear canals in the medicated oils. Herbal extracts are carefully blended together and the warm oil is poured gently into the ears. In simple terms, the internal ear is given herbal bath. The oil lubricates the ear canal. It is performed generally combined with head and face massage.
