Pinda Svedana (Herbal Poultice Massage) is a massage treatment where medicated herbal poultices heated up or dipped in warm oil are massaged on particular parts of the body, relieving muscle pain and strengthening the tissues. Concluding with a warm (steam) bath, the medicated oil and substances of the poultices can penetrate even deeper into your skin.
Pinda Svedana is generally safe, but not recommended if you have fever, infections, open wounds, recent surgery, severe pain, or serious cardiovascular or digestive conditions.
