Netra Dhara is an Ayurvedic treatment that involves washing the eyes with a herbal decoction. The term “Netra” means “eye,” and “Dhara” refers to a “streamline flow.” This therapy is designed to rejuvenate the eyes and is effective for various eye disorders.
The procedure is straightforward and relaxing. You start by lying down in a comfortable position. The therapist gently pours a warm herbal decoction over your closed eyes, allowing the liquid to flow across the entire eye area. Initially, your eyes remain closed, and the soothing stream helps to cleanse and refresh them. After a while, you will be asked to blink continuously, allowing the decoction to thoroughly cleanse the eyes.
Netra Dhara is beneficial for preventing cataracts, improving visual defects, and relieving general eye fatigue. It provides a rejuvenating effect, making it a valuable treatment for those who spend a lot of time in front of screens or suffer from eye strain. This simple yet effective therapy helps maintain healthy eyes and improve overall eye function.
