Sathukanda

Sathukanda is a traditional herbal practice from Sri Lanka that involves using specific medicinal plants, particularly parts like the leaves and stems, to promote health and treat ailments. The term combines "Sathu" (medicinal herbs) and "Kanda" (herbs or plants). Practitioners prepare herbal remedies, often as teas or pastes, based on the individual's health condition. This holistic approach emphasizes natural healing, herbal formulations, and the body's balance, and it is an integral part of Sri Lankan традиционал medicine, reflecting a deep cultural knowledge of local flora for promoting wellness and curing minor diseases.
