Dhanyamladhara Treatment center in Trivandrum

What is Dhanyamladhara?

Dhanyamladhara is a specialized Ayurvedic therapy in which warm medicated liquid made from fermented cereals and herbs is continuously poured over the body in a rhythmic stream. The name comes from “Dhanya” (grains), “Amla” (sour), and “Dhara” (flow), reflecting the sour, grain-based herbal decoction used in the process. This therapy is primarily used to reduce inflammation, stiffness, and fat deposits and is particularly effective in treating inflammatory conditions and metabolic disorders.
