March 23rd, 2007 | admin

Dhooma pana or dhooma panam is an Ayurvedic treatment method, which includes smoking the leaves or other parts of medicinal plants, mainly to cure respiratory or nervous disorders.

Dhoom pan or dhooma pan literally means smoking. Unlike cigarettes, it is medicines prescribed for specific conditions that the person inhales.

Dhoopanam is another form of inhalation of medicinal smoke, in which the person is left on a chamber filled with smoke from medicinal herbs.
