What is Agnikarma and How Does It Work?

Agnikarma is one of the most powerful para-surgical procedures described in classical Ayurvedic texts. It involves the controlled application of therapeutic heat to specific points to relieve pain and stimulate healing.

Unlike painkillers that only mask symptoms, Agnikarma works at the root, improving local circulation and breaking the pain cycle. It is widely used for heel pain, sciatica, cervical and knee pain — offering relief that is often felt within the very first session.
