sanskrit

In cases where oleation is prescribed for empty-headedness, strengthening the neck and shoulders, or for the purpose of enhancing vision, the term nasya is specifically applied. This treatment should be administered in conditions dominated by vata, targeting ailments affecting the head, teeth, hair, and facial hair, as well as severe pain in the ears, earaches, headaches, visual disturbances, nasal diseases, dryness of the throat, and the onset of weakness associated with vata and pitta doshas. The oleation must be performed with substances that are effective in alleviating vata and pitta.
