In the traditional healing systems of Kerala, some of the most effective treatments are those that focus on sustained, localized application of medicinal heat. Pichu is one such highly specialized therapy. If you are a resident of Coimbatore suffering from localized pain, sports injuries, or neurological discomfort, Poornaayur provides authentic Pichu therapy designed to provide deep, penetrative relief.
Located in the serene surroundings of Race Course, Coimbatore, Poornaayur brings the meticulous standards of Kerala Ayurveda to help you manage chronic conditions without invasive procedures.
The word Pichu refers to a sponge or a thick pad of medicated cotton. In this therapy, a long, thick strip of cotton is soaked in warm, medicated herbal oil and placed over a specific affected area—be it the crown of the head, the spine, or a particular joint.
The cotton pad is periodically replaced or re-soaked to ensure the temperature remains constant. This allows the medicated oil to seep deep into the tissues, providing a continuous “internal bath” to the nerves, muscles, and bones.
Depending on your health concern, our BAMS doctors at Poornaayur may recommend different applications:
Shiro Pichu (Head): The medicated pad is placed on the crown of the head. It is exceptional for treating migraines, insomnia, and psychological disorders like anxiety or depression.
Greeva Pichu (Neck): Specifically for those in Coimbatore’s IT and industrial sectors suffering from Cervical Spondylosis or neck stiffness.
Kati Pichu (Lower Back): Focused on the lumbar region to treat sciatica, disc bulges, and chronic lower backaches.
Janu Pichu (Knee): An excellent therapy for osteoarthritis or ligament injuries in the knee
Nerve Regeneration: The sustained warmth and herbal properties help in healing damaged nerves, making it vital for those with neurological weaknesses.
Reduces Inflammation: It is highly effective in bringing down swelling and localized inflammation in the joints.
Stress Management: Shiro Pichu acts as a powerful sedative for the nervous system, promoting mental clarity and cooling the “burning” sensations often caused by high stress.
Healing Injuries: Ideal for athletes and active individuals in Coimbatore who need targeted recovery for muscle pulls or chronic tendonitis.
As a premier Ayurvedic center in Coimbatore, Poornaayur (promoted by Right Herbal) ensures that your Pichu treatment is both therapeutic and restorative.
