How to use dhanwantharam thailam during pregnancy?
My amma gave me this thailam for back pain and said its very good. But i dont know if its for massage or how exactly to use it during pregnancy. Anyone here used it, how did you apply it?
We use this oil a lot in our family, mostly for gentle massage on back and joints for pain relief. But during pregnancy please dont start any ayurvedic oil or medicine on your own, ask your gynac or a proper ayurvedic vaidya first. Some are for external use only, so be sure before applying.
Honestly any ayurvedic oil during pregnancy I'd check with the doctor before, even external ones. I was told to be careful with anything new on my skin or body. Please dont take it internally based on a forum, talk to your doctor and an experienced ayurvedic practitioner together.
This is traditionally used for muscle and joint pain as an oil massage. But how to use it in pregnancy really depends on your situation, so the safe route is to ask your gynac and ideally a qualified ayurveda doctor. I wouldn't follow general instructions for this during pregnancy.
Beta in our home it's used for body and joint pain, applied lightly outside only with warm hands. But pregnancy is delicate, so first ask your doctor if external massage is okay for you. Never take such oils by mouth in pregnancy without proper ayurvedic guidance.
