What is Sivanjanam?
Sivanjanam is AVM Herbals' flagship balm, kept in Tamil homes for four generations. It is a proprietary Siddha medicine (Mfg. Lic. No. 1330/25D), GMP-made in small batches under the guidance of a fourth-generation Rana Vaidyar. The formulation is patented.
How is Sivanjanam traditionally used on the forehead and temples?
Take a small amount on a fingertip and massage it gently into the forehead and temples. Repeat 2–3 times a day if needed. Keep it away from the eyes. For external use only.
How do families use it around the nose and chest?
Rub a small amount on the nose bridge, around the nostrils (outside only) and on the chest. Many families also use it on the throat and back of the neck.
Siddha balm vs regular balms
Common balms are made mainly of menthol, camphor and synthetic oils. Sivanjanam is a Siddha preparation made by a licensed Siddha pharmacy following traditional Tamil Siddha literature, with a patented formulation.
Is Sivanjanam safe for children?
Use sparingly on children and test on a small patch of skin first. Do not apply to broken skin or near the eyes. Consult a Siddha physician for children under 5 or during pregnancy.
When should I see a doctor?
See a doctor for any sudden, severe or long-lasting discomfort, discomfort with high fever, stiff neck or vision changes, or after an injury. A balm offers everyday comfort; it does not replace medical care.
