The principal medicinal effects of Abhishek are as a relaxant and it is used as an adjunct in Tibetan Medicine to relieve stress and anxiety.

The  binding agent used in  this  incense is a viscous substance odorless,  non-toxic and  very powerful tonic. It is used in the ayurvedic and Tibetan medical systems and has properties similar to ginseng. Most of these plants are harvested in Nepal.
