Jihwa Lepa is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that involves applying a specially prepared herbal paste to the tongue to cleanse, detoxify, and promote better oral and digestive health. In Ayurveda, “Jihwa” means tongue, while “Lepa” refers to the application of a medicinal herbal paste.
According to Ayurvedic principles, the tongue reflects the overall health of the digestive system and internal organs. A coated, discolored, or unhealthy tongue may indicate the accumulation of toxins (Ama) or digestive imbalance. Jihwa Lepa helps remove these impurities, improves oral hygiene, enhances taste perception, and supports healthy digestion.
