Tala Pudhuchal

40 Minutes

Talapotichil is a herbal massage treatment where a special herbal paste is applied to the patient's scalp. Tala translates to 'head' and poticihil means 'to cover', and this summarises the treatment procedure. The patient usually has to have a shaven head or short hair for this.

The patient is first made to sit comfortably and given a light oil massage on the head. A special herbal paste made of gooseberries, buttermilk and plant derivatives, that is prepared and left overnight, is then applied to the patient's head. It is removed only after a prescribed amount of time. The treatment is usually repeated once more, after which a herbal bath is given.

Talapotichil is recommended for many problems such as stress, hypertension, insomnia, hair and scalp issues, and Pitta Dosha imbalances.
