About 

Nasika Choornam is a classical Ayurvedic nasal herbal powder used for nasya karma (nasal administration therapy). It is primarily designed to clear nasal passages, improve respiratory functions, and enhance mental clarity.

Prepared from potent herbs such as Vacha (Acorus calamus), Trikatu (Pippali, Maricha, Shunthi), and Camphor, Nasika Choornam helps in eliminating excess Kapha from the head region, relieving sinus congestion, headache, cold, and drowsiness.
