Janu Basti

Janu Basti 1

Janu Basti is a specialized Ayurvedic therapy aimed at providing relief from knee pain and joint stiffness. It is particularly effective in treating conditions like osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and degenerative joint disorders. By balancing the aggravated Vata dosha, this therapy helps improve knee mobility and reduce inflammation.

Procedure
During the procedure, the patient is asked to lie down in a comfortable position with their knees exposed. A dough ring is created and placed around the knee joint. Warm medicated oil, carefully selected based on the individual’s condition, is poured into this dough ring and kept for 20 to 30 minutes. The oil penetrates deep into the knee joint tissues, nourishing them and relieving pain. The oil is replaced or reheated to maintain its therapeutic temperature.

Therapeutic Benefits
Janu Basti provides significant relief from chronic knee pain caused by osteoarthritis, injury, or joint degeneration. The warm oil lubricates the joint, relieves stiffness, and reduces swelling. It helps in regenerating cartilage and slowing down the progression of degenerative conditions like arthritis. Additionally, it improves flexibility and range of motion in the knee joint, making movement easier and less painful.

Holistic Impact
Beyond the physical benefits, Janu Basti also calms the nervous system and reduces stress stored in the body’s joints. The therapy promotes emotional balance and contributes to an overall sense of well-being.
