Nasyam (or Nasya Karma) is an Ayurvedic therapy involving the administration of medicinal oils or herbal extracts through the nostrils. As a therapeutic approach in Ayurveda’s Panchakarma (detoxification) regimen, Nasyam primarily targets the head and neck region, helping cleanse, balance, and treat issues related to the upper respiratory tract, sinuses, head, and brain.
