Clearing the Path to Wellness Through Ancient Nasal Therapy

Preparation

The person lies down comfortably with their head slightly tilted backwards.

Application

A few drops of medicated oil, herbal juice, or powdered herbs are dropped into each nostril, reaching deep within the nasal passages.

Massage

After administration, massage may be performed gently around the nose and forehead areas as well as sinus regions so that these herbal substances can penetrate and work effectively on them.
