It is an increasingly popular technique in spa and beauty centers. It has a Hindu origin, belonging to the ayurveda medical system.
The Ayurvedic medical system is an ancient art of healing practiced in India, for more than 5,000 years.
The literal translation would be “the science or knowledge of life.” This treatment is carried out with the pindas.
The pindas, are a natural preparation of aromatic and medicinal herbs, mixed with essential oils, and wrapped in a cotton fabric in the shape of a bag.
To carry out the massage, the pindas are heated to steam, in this way it is easier for the effects of the herbs used to penetrate the organism in a deeper way.
We must know that the plants chosen to make the pindas depend on the needs of each person.
However, the basic ingredient is rice, which is usually combined with cinnamon, lemon balm, nutmeg, arnica or ginger, among others.
The bags act on the body by pressing on the body, massaging, in turn, all muscles and tendons by rapid and strong movements.
Thanks to these combined elements multiple benefits are achieved, such as:
- Moisturizing action for the skin, eliminating toxins from it, leaving it elastic and toned.
- Helps muscle, joint and tendon relaxation.
- The relief of pain and discomfort, as well as contractures.
- Increase muscle flexibility
- Improves the circulation and the immune system.

- It is recommended for rheumatic patients, due to its powerful anti-inflammatory action.
- In addition to being very effective for anti-aging treatments, since it slows the degeneration of tissues.
- We can not forget its relaxing and anti-stress effects, as well as reducing insomnia.
Without a doubt, imagining such a treatment invites us to try it, which is the best way to enjoy all its benefits.
