Kolakulathadi Powder
£44.00
Kolakulathadi Churnam is a classical external-use Ayurvedic powder formulated specifically for Udvartana (traditional dry powder massage), one of the essential Dinacharya practices described in the Ashtanga Hridayam. The name derives from its two anchor ingredients: Kola (Ziziphus jujuba) and Kulatha (Dolichos biflorus/horse gram), combined with warming, drying herbs that give the powder its characteristic Lekhana and Kapha-reducing action.

Kolakulathadi Powder
Udvartana is performed as a vigorous upward-direction dry massage using herbal powders, traditionally recommended for Kapha-predominant constitutions and as a preparatory or standalone therapy in Panchakarma. The Ashtanga Hridayam specifically describes Udvartana as Kaphahara, Meda Pravilayana (tissue-toning) and Sthirikarana (firming). Kolakulathadi is the most commonly prescribed powder for this purpose across all major classical texts.
Art of Vedas Kolakulathadi Powder is prepared following classical proportions. For Udvartana, take an appropriate quantity and massage vigorously over the body in upward strokes (from feet toward heart) on dry skin or after a light oil application. Follow with a warm bath. Available in 500g and 1KG professional sizes for practitioners and Panchakarma centres.
For external use only. Not a medicine and not a substitute for professional medical advice. Avoid broken or irritated skin. Discontinue if irritation occurs. Store in a cool, dry place.
