Ela Kizhi is an Ayurvedic treatment used to alleviate body pain, joint stiffness, and backaches. This therapy involves frying a mix of herbal leaves—such as Ricinus, drumstick, tamarind, and Calotropis gigantea—in neem or castor oil until they turn brown. Lemon pieces and coconut shreds are then added. The mixture is wrapped in cloth pouches and dipped in medicated oil before being used for massage. This method is effective in treating conditions like osteoarthritis, arthritis, and spondylosis.
