Product Overview
Kanchanar is highly regarded in SVAFF Ayurveda for its ability to reduce abnormal growths in the body and support the endocrine and exocrine systems. Traditionally, Kanchanar is used to shrink swollen glands and regulate both endocrine and exocrine functions, making it a valuable herb for hormonal balance, detoxification, and metabolic support.
The endocrine system is responsible for producing and regulating hormones that control vital functions such as metabolism, reproduction, mood, and immune response. When imbalances occur—whether from toxic buildup, poor diet, stress, or aging—the proper delivery of hormones can become obstructed, leading to stagnation, inflammation, or abnormal tissue growth. The exocrine system, which includes sweat glands, salivary glands, and digestive secretions, plays an essential role in eliminating waste, regulating temperature, and maintaining tissue hydration. Blockages or dysfunctions in these systems can contribute to issues such as fluid retention, swelling, congestion, and excess heat in the blood (rakta pitta).
Kanchanar + Transdermal Cream (Maha Kanchanar) is a more potent and concentrated formulation that builds upon the benefits of our traditional Kanchanar Transdermal Cream by incorporating additional synergistic herbs that amplify its effects. This advanced formula is designed for deeper penetration to break down stubborn fibrotic tissue, clear glandular congestion, and promote the healthy flow of pranic energy.
As observed by Vaidya Mishra, blockages in the lymphatic and glandular systems—whether caused by toxins, poor diet, excessive heat (drava pitta), or chronic stress—can impair hormone delivery, cause swollen glands, and contribute to fibrotic growths. These blockages prevent the proper circulation of nutrients and waste removal, leading to stagnation in the body's channels (srotas). When this occurs, fibrotic tissues, nodules, and dense muscular adhesions can develop, making movement uncomfortable and restricting the body's natural detoxification processes.
This powerful transdermal formula provides targeted support for breaking down fibrotic accumulations, shrinking glandular swellings, and restoring smooth lymphatic circulation. It has been used effectively for addressing muscle adhesions, swollen glands, vaginal discharge, ulcers, and areas of hardened tissue from old injuries or chronic stress. With the addition of supporting herbs that enhance Kanchanar’s action, this formulation offers a more intensive and deeper-acting approach than our original Kanchanar Transdermal Cream.
For a comprehensive approach, Kanchanar + Transdermal Cream pairs well with Kanchanar Herbal Synergy Nectar to enhance internal detoxification and support lymphatic and endocrine health. When used alongside a balanced SVAFF Ayurvedic diet and routine, this formula helps maintain overall wellness and equilibrium.

Transdermal Marma Absorption:
Transdermal absorption has been a cornerstone of Ayurvedic practice for centuries and is now recognized in modern medicine. Vaidya Rama Kant Mishra advanced this tradition by creating the Transdermal Marma System, which utilizes targeted marma points to enhance absorption directly where it is needed, ensuring optimal delivery of therapeutic benefits.
- Efficient Delivery: Approximately 75% of what is applied to the skin is absorbed into the bloodstream, providing a direct gateway to your physiology.
- Gentle on Digestion: This method bypasses the digestive system—ideal for patients whose colon and liver are burdened by processed foods, chemicals, and toxins—ensuring that healing herbs are delivered efficiently without further taxing the system.
- Intelligent Formulation: Our transdermal cream is based on Shea Butter combined with various pure essential oils. While Shea Butter remains on the skin for a few minutes, it effectively supports the sustained release and absorption of active ingredients (take care to avoid staining clothing).
Key Ingredients:
- Kanchanar (कांचनार - Bauhinia variegata): Renowned in Ayurveda for its ability to support glandular health, reduce growths, and promote detoxification.
- Guduchi (गुडूची - Tinospora cordifolia): A powerful detoxifier that supports immune function and tissue rejuvenation.
- Pashan Bhed (पाषाणभेद - Bergenia ligulata): Traditionally used to promote urinary and kidney health, assisting in detoxification.

- Organic Shea Butter (जैविक शी बटर - Organic Shea Butter): Deeply hydrates the skin while supporting the sustained release and absorption of active ingredients.
Directions for General Use:
Take a small amount from the container. Apply the cream to the targeted area, gently massaging in circular motions to promote absorption. For endocrine support, apply over the lower abdomen and massage in a clockwise direction. For glandular health, apply to the throat and massage lightly over the area. This cream can be applied morning and evening or as directed by your Ayurvedic health practitioner. To promote steady absorption, leave the cream on for at least half an hour or continuously for a prolonged effect, and rub the cream into the skin when done.
As with all herbal formulations, please consult your physician before using this product. Use under the guidance of an Ayurvedic practitioner.
