Urovasthi is an Ayurvedic treatment focused on the chest area, designed to promote heart health and address respiratory issues. In this procedure, a reservoir made of black gram dough is crafted around the heart area. Warm medicated oil or ghee is then poured into this reservoir and maintained at a constant temperature for 30 to 45 minutes. The oil is periodically refreshed to ensure it remains warm throughout the treatment.
The therapeutic properties of the herbal oils used in Urovasthi contribute to enriching the blood and strengthening the muscles and connective tissues in the chest area. This treatment is particularly beneficial for preventing heart-related conditions such as strokes and blocks. It is also effective in managing chronic bronchitis, cough, bronchospasm, and Costo-chondritis by soothing and healing the respiratory system.
