Soothika Paricharya

Traditional 28-Day Postnatal Care

The postpartum period (Soothika Kala) is a beautiful, yet physically and emotionally demanding time. Childbirth causes extreme exertion, loss of fluids, and a severe aggravation of Vata dosha in the mother's body. At Dr. Sandhya's Santhi Ayurveda Hospital, we offer an authentic 28-day Ayurvedic Postnatal Care program designed to restore the mother's physical strength, ensure complete uterine healing, prevent postpartum depression, and promote the healthy growth of the newborn baby.

Benefits of our Program

Healing Mother & Child

Our specialized program offers comprehensive support to help mothers recover gracefully and infants to thrive. The key benefits of our care include:

Uterine Recovery & Detox

Aiding the uterus to quickly shrink back to its normal size (involution) while thoroughly flushing out accumulated toxins and lochia from the reproductive tract.

Lactation Support

Providing specialized herbal medicines and dietary modifications that naturally improve both the quality and quantity of breast milk for the infant.

Restoring Physical Strength

Alleviating backaches, muscle fatigue, and joint pains caused by labor, while significantly strengthening the muscles and ligaments.

Mental Well-being

Deeply pacifying the nervous system to prevent postpartum anxiety, mood swings, and depression, ensuring the mother remains calm and emotionally supported.

Ayurvedic Postnatal Care

The 28-Day Regimen

Specialized Postnatal Therapies

Our dedicated therapists provide gentle, daily care designed to nurture both the mother and the newborn, using freshly prepared, pure Ayurvedic oils and herbs.

  • Abhyanga (Mother's Massage): Daily full-body massages using warm, Vata-pacifying oils (like Dhanwantharam Tailam) to relieve muscle spasms, improve sleep, and tone the skin.
  • Vethu Kuli (Herbal Water Bath): Bathing in water boiled with medicinal leaves like Nalpamaram. This prevents infections, drastically reduces body pain, and promotes healing of the perineal area.
  • Udaraveshtanam (Stomach Binding): A traditional practice of firmly tying the abdomen with a cotton cloth after the massage. It helps the uterus retract, provides back support, and reduces the postpartum belly.
  • Internal Medicines (Kashayams): Customized daily herbal decoctions (like Jeerakarishtam and Dasamoolarishtam) to boost immunity, digestion, and clear the reproductive tract.
  • Navajatha Shishu Paricharya (Baby Care): Gentle, daily oil massages and herbal baths for the newborn to promote healthy weight gain, bone strength, immunity, and sound sleep.
