Advanced: Nasya Treatments offers an in-depth exploration of one of Ayurveda’s most powerful yet often misunderstood therapeutic practices. This course examines Nasya as a foundational therapy for supporting the head, sensory organs, nervous system, and mental clarity through the nasal administration of herbalized oils, ghee, powders, and plant preparations.
Students learn why Ayurveda considers the nose the primary gateway to the head and how Nasya influences neurological, respiratory, and emotional balance. The course explores different types of Nasya, their energetics, and how they are selected based on doṣha, condition, and therapeutic intention. Both daily maintenance practices and deeper therapeutic applications are discussed within a classical Ayurvedic framework.
This class is ideal for students, practitioners, and serious learners seeking to understand Nasya as a refined, practical, and transformative Ayurvedic therapy.

Advanced: Nasya Treatments presents a comprehensive examination of Nasya as a central therapeutic modality in classical Ayurveda. The course explores Nasya not only as a treatment for sinus or respiratory concerns, but as a sophisticated intervention for influencing the senses, emotions, cognition, and neurological function through the nasal pathway.
Students explore the Ayurvedic rationale for nasal therapies, including how substances administered through the nose interact with the sensory organs, cranial structures, and subtle channels associated with the mind and nervous system. The course examines the different forms of Nasya—nourishing, palliative, and cleansing—and how each is selected based on doṣhic imbalance, stage of condition, and desired therapeutic effect.
Attention is given to the wide range of substances traditionally used in Nasya, including oils, ghee, powders, herbal infusions, and specialized preparations. The course emphasizes understanding the energetics behind these materials rather than memorizing formulas, helping students develop discernment and adaptability. Practical considerations such as preparation, application techniques, dosing flexibility, and integration with supportive practices are discussed within an educational context.
The class also surveys the traditional use of Nasya for conditions affecting the head and senses, including congestion, headaches, mood imbalance, cognitive concerns, and neurological weakness, while maintaining a non-prescriptive, systems-based perspective. Nasya is presented as both a daily self-care practice and a deeper therapeutic tool when used with knowledge and intention.
