Akshi Tarpana is a unique procedure where medicated ghee is retained over the eyes for a specific amount of time. It is also called Netra Basti.
The medicated ghee nourishes and strengthens the eye structure. This is a very beneficial treatment for the following conditions:
To prevent degeneration.
Dryness of the eye.
Squinting and eye strain.
Loss of eye lashes.
Ophthalmological conditions.
Macular degeneration.
How is the treatment performed? A gentle massage is performed on the head, eyes and face before a frame of dough is made around both eyes. The frame is filled with medicated ghee. Check out our stories for a bit of insight into the procedure.
Once the eyes are covered with the ghee the patient opens and closes them several times before the ghee is removed.
After the procedure you are advised to avoid the sun or other bright objects.
