What Does Leech Therapy Cost Per Sitting?

In short: Raktamokshana is Ayurveda's term for therapeutic bloodletting, and leech therapy (Jalaukavacharan) is its most common clinical form today.

The confirmed rate at AMRUT AYU CARE™ is ₹500 per leech, per sitting, across Ghorpadi, Manjri Bk Hadapsar and Wagholi. A sitting is not a flat fee: the total depends on how many leeches your doctor applies, decided case by case.

How Many Leeches Does One Sitting Actually Use?

There is no standard number. Your doctor decides how many leeches a sitting needs based on the area being treated, your condition, and how your skin responds once the first leech is placed, after examining you directly rather than quoting a count in advance.

Examined first

Your doctor assesses the area before deciding anything.

Case by case

The count depends on the condition and skin response.

What Happens During a Leech Therapy Sitting?

A sitting follows the same four steps regardless of leech count: an area assessment, skin preparation, supervised application, and then a dressed aftercare period once each leech is removed and disposed of as medical waste.

1

Assessment

The doctor examines the area and decides how many leeches it needs.
2

Skin preparation

The area is cleaned before any leech is applied.
3

Application and monitoring

Each leech is placed and watched under supervision.
4

Aftercare dressing

The site is dressed, and you are given simple after-sitting care notes.

Is Leech Therapy Safe, and What Are the Precautions?

Leech therapy is a supervised procedure, not a home remedy. Beyond the caution above (bleeding disorders, blood thinners, severe anaemia, pregnancy), the main safeguards are a single-use leech each time and a dressed aftercare period before you leave.

Who Should Consider Leech Therapy?

Leech therapy is usually one part of a wider plan your doctor has already discussed, for conditions such as certain skin or vein concerns. For procedure and safety detail beyond cost, read the pillar guide linked below.

Leech therapy is performed in person at Ghorpadi, Manjri Bk, Hadapsar and Wagholi. Kharadi and Viman Nagar patients start online, then visit one of these 3 for the sitting.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will leech therapy give lasting results for my skin or vein condition?

Leech therapy is care and management support, one part of a wider Ayurvedic Medicine plan your doctor builds. It is care and support only, and outcomes vary from person to person.

Can I book a leech therapy sitting online from Kharadi or Viman Nagar?

The sitting itself needs an in-person visit to Ghorpadi, Hadapsar or Wagholi. Kharadi and Viman Nagar patients can start with an online consultation to check suitability first.

Is the same leech reused on another patient?

No. Each leech used in your sitting is single-use: applied to you alone, then disposed of as medical waste under standard clinic hygiene protocol, never reused on another patient or kept for a later sitting.

How many sittings are usually needed?

This varies by the condition being treated and is decided by your doctor as treatment progresses, not promised at your first visit. Some patients need one sitting, others need a short course reviewed appointment by appointment.
