Jaipur, Dec 5: A retired banker, now a naturopath, is using a pressure cooker to generate medicinal steam to cure post COVID symptoms of people and to boost immunity by using herbs like ginger, chirata, kutki, carom seeds, lemon juice and neem leaves.
A pipe is connected to a pressure cooker which extends into a bathroom where patients are asked to inhale the steam for 30 minutes.
Besides inhaling the steam, the patient is asked to take mud therapy where black soil mixed with lemon juice is applied to his body and he is asked to rub it on his body for smooth blood circulation, says Pukhraj Vohra (65) who is operating a small naturopathy centre on the Rajasthan-MP border in Ratlam district.
Many patients from the neighbouring districts of Rajasthan, Gujarat and Maharashtra are visiting this centre to deal with their post COVID challenges. The line of treatment is quite different here.
As soon as a patient enters this naturopathy centre, he is given juice made of aamla and different herbs after which starts the steam session, a patient told IANS. Worried about the pandemic and its consequences, Vohra has used his knowledge gathered over the last three decades to help the people.
He has been operating this three-storeyed naturopathy centre on his own, running here and there, listening to the stories of patients, bringing them out of depression, giving them Reiky treatment and many other such things. (IANS)
