Owning a Sadhu board raises the question of how to maintain its pristine condition and how to treat the nails to preserve their properties. To ensure your Sadhu board remains visually appealing and functional for years, proper care is essential. Below, we’ll go over simple maintenance tips to extend the lifespan of your board.

How to Care for Wooden Sadhu Boards?

Sadhu boards made from wood and plywood require delicate handling. While we currently manufacture high-quality boards using the finest wood species, these care tips are also applicable to plywood products, though they may require more frequent application of protective coatings.

Here’s what you need to do to preserve the attractiveness and functionality of this essential meditation tool:

  1. Protection from sun and heat. Do not place the board under direct sunlight or near heat sources (radiators, fireplaces, heaters). Keep at least one meter of distance between the board and heat sources. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can lead to fading and deformation of the wood.

  2. Cleaning and stain removal. If stains appear, promptly remove them with a dry cloth or paper towel. Protect the wood from moisture by using special wood care products.

  3. Proper storage and use. Store the board in a protective case, and place a mat or towel underneath it during nail-standing practice to prevent floor scratches.

  4. Maintaining hygiene. Regularly wipe down the board and disinfect the nails with a solution such as chlorhexidine, especially after group sessions. Dust buildup can cause tarnishing over time, so regular cleaning with a soft brush will help maintain its condition.

  5. Drying and airing. Occasionally dry and air out the Sadhu board. After use, leave it on a balcony or in a shaded outdoor area on a warm, dry day. Avoid storing it in humid conditions. If condensation forms, be sure to dry the board before placing it back in its case.

  6. Nail maintenance. Galvanized nails resist corrosion when handled correctly. Copper nails are more sensitive to moisture but highly durable. They may develop a green patina due to oxidation, which does not affect functionality. To remove it, use lemon juice or citric acid.

Following these simple guidelines will help you maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of your board while ensuring safe and effective nail-standing practice, making it a source of health, energy, and positivity.

How Often Should You Disinfect the Board?

The frequency of Sadhu board maintenance depends on usage intensity. If used personally and stored in a dedicated Sadhu board case, disinfecting the nails with a special solution once a month is sufficient. For group practice settings, the nails should be wiped down after each session.

Miramistin is a popular antiseptic known for its effectiveness against microbes. It eliminates bacteria, fungi, and viruses, making it ideal for disinfecting the nails.

Every Sadhu board is a unique work of art. The wood grain patterns, color shades, and texture make each board one of a kind. With proper care, your board will remain in excellent condition for years, bringing you health, energy, and a flawless aesthetic experience.
