Description

Raktamokshana, or Ayurvedic bloodletting therapy, is one of the five Panchakarma detox techniques used for purifying the blood and treating disorders caused by impure or stagnant blood circulation. The most effective and safe form of Raktamokshana is leech therapy, where medicinal leeches are applied to affected areas of the body under expert supervision.

This therapy is particularly beneficial for:

• Chronic skin disorders like psoriasis, eczema, acne, and pigmentation
• Varicose veins, non-healing wounds, and diabetic ulcers
• Joint pain, arthritis, and localized swelling
• Improper blood flow, inflammation, and toxin accumulation
• Headaches, high blood pressure, and eye disorders (when indicated)

How It Works:

• Leech application to the affected area where they draw impure blood
• Their saliva contains natural anti-inflammatory, anesthetic, and anticoagulant enzymes
• After therapy, the site is disinfected and bandaged carefully
• A mild detox diet may be recommended for best results

Benefits:

• Removes Ama (toxins) and improves circulation
• Reduces pain, inflammation, and heat from the body
• Promotes tissue healing and regeneration
• Enhances skin health and immune response
• Natural alternative to synthetic anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medications

Raktamokshana (Leech Therapy) is performed under strict hygiene and with medical-grade leeches by trained professionals, ensuring safety, precision, and effectiveness.
