Today we treated one of our lovely clients with Thalapothichil treatment 💆🏻‍♀️. This is a very unique and special Ayurvedic treatment, originating from Kerala 🌴.

Thala means head, and pothichil means covering.

This treatment begins with a short head and face massage, then a medicated paste is applied to the crown of the head. The head is then wrapped in a banana 🍌 leaf, and a small hole is made in the leaf where oil is poured to keep the paste nice and moist. After some time resting, the leaf and paste are removed, followed by a hair rinse.

The ingredients of the paste are chosen specifically to suit the persons needs, such as Amalaki (Indian Gooseberry) and Takra (Buttermilk) 🥛 . Thalapothichil is very cooling, relaxing and soothing for the mind and body 😌.

Indications for Thalapothichil include:
🌀 Chronic headache and migraine
🌀 High blood pressure
🌀 Hair and scalp ailments
🌀 Mental fatigue, poor memory and concentration
🌀 Anxiety and depression
🌀 Pitta-Vata related imbalances
🌀 Chronic sinusitis, and more.

We feel that Thalapothichil truly connects you with the feeling of Authentic Ayurveda… with the herbal paste prepared in a traditional clay pot ⚱️, and a banana leaf 🍃 wrapped around your head! 😋

Here at Lakshmi Ayurveda, we are one of the very few places in Australia to be offering this beautiful treatment. To see if this treatment is suitable for you, we recommend a consultation with one of our practitioners.

With Love from your Lakshmi Ayurveda Team 💗🙏🪷

We pay great attention at the feet during Abhyanga treatment and this is a wonderful way to have your feet cared and soothed.

You can also decide to have an add-on feet 30 minutes care combined to any other treatment like Shirodhara or Kari basti for example.

It is a moment to pause and honour your 👣

Inspired by Ayurvedic wisdom and reflexology, this ritual focuses on the many energy points within the feet that correspond to organs and systems throughout the body — including pathways connected to eye health and overall vitality.
Through nourishing touch and intentional care, we stimulate these reflex points to support balance within the body while giving your dancing feet the appreciation they deserve.

Add this gentle ritual to any massage to restore, ground and thank the feet that carry you everywhere.

Today one of our client was booked for Utsadana, traditional Ayurvedic body treatment that uses a specially prepared herbal paste of powders, oils, and natural ingredients massaged over the body with specific techniques.

This rejuvenating therapy helps stimulate circulation, support metabolism, detoxify the body, and tone the skin and muscles while promoting a healthy, radiant complexion. The herbs are carefully selected to help balance the body’s doshas, nourish the skin, and enhance overall vitality.

Traditionally performed in India before special occasions such as weddings, Utsadana is also well known for supporting weight reduction and revitalising the body’s natural glow.

For the best results, a course of at least 7 sessions is recommended. Your treatment also includes a refreshing shower.

🌿 Book your Utsadana treatment and experience this deeply rejuvenating Ayurvedic therapy for yourself.

🪷 Crafting Triphala Guggulu — an Ayurvedic classic in our clinic

There’s something special about preparing medicine the traditional way.

This week at the clinic, our students from the Ayurvedic Lifestyle Consultant Course are hand-preparing Triphala Guggulu, one of the most respected formulations in classical Ayurveda. Carefully made from scratch, this preparation contains Amalaki, Bibhitaki, Haritaki, Pippali, purified (Shuddh) Guggulu, water, and ghee (ghrita) — each ingredient chosen for its unique therapeutic qualities.

In Ayurveda, Guggulu is revered for its powerful protective and restorative properties. Its name is often interpreted as “that which protects from disease.” Because of its broad action in the body, Ayurvedic physicians commonly use Guggulu-based formulations in the management of conditions such as arthritis, metabolic imbalance, high cholesterol, PCOS, autoimmune disorders and more.

Triphala Guggulu is particularly valued for its ability to support cleansing and balance in the digestive system. Traditionally it may be recommended for:

• Constipation
• Haemorrhoids
• Weight management support
• Elevated cholesterol
• Inflammatory conditions
• Sinus congestion and related imbalances

What makes ours special?
It’s prepared fresh in-house, with no preservatives, and crafted with care, attention, and intention — just as the classical texts describe.

If you’re curious whether Triphala Guggulu could be appropriate for your health needs, feel free to contact us during office hours at 0406 810 547 or email the clinic to arrange a consultation with one of our practitioners.

Wishing you a beautiful start to the week.

With love,
The Lakshmi Clinic Team 🪷
