Information on Ayurvedic herbal oils:
Oils play an essential role in many types of Ayurvedic treatments, whether for health care or therapy. The term Thailam comes from Tilam, sesame. Due to its excellent properties, sesame seed oil is the most commonly used base in the production of medicated oils.
As a first step, various plant ingredients are cooked in water, depending on the recipe. The cooking process continues until only a highly concentrated decoction remains. This decoction is then added to a base oil – usually sesame or coconut oil – and further cooked. A paste made of plant and mineral components is also added. The addition of ingredients, as well as the stirring of the oil, is accompanied by various mantras. The duration of production for an oil with a moderately complex recipe, for two people and 20 liters of oil, usually takes more than 12 hours.
From an Ayurvedic perspective and experience, the medicated oil, through prolonged heating and stirring, is much more easily absorbed by the human body and integrated into its own metabolism. The oil also takes on the properties of its ingredients and works in a very subtle way.
