Janu Basti (Knee Care Therapy) at Utpala Ayurdhama
Janu Basti is a highly effective Ayurvedic therapy offered at Utpala Ayurdhama, specifically designed for the care and treatment of knee joints. The word “Janu” refers to the knee, and “Basti” signifies containment or retention. This therapy involves retaining warm medicated oil or herbal decoctions within a dough ring placed on the knee joint. Janu Basti at Utpala Ayurdhama is an excellent treatment for alleviating knee pain, inflammation, stiffness, and joint disorders, providing long-term relief and promoting overall joint health. It also improves circulation, nourishes the knee tissues, and aids in rejuvenation.
Janu Basti Procedure
At Utpala Ayurdhama, the Janu Basti procedure begins by placing the patient in a comfortable lying position. A dough ring made from black gram flour or wheat flour is prepared and placed around the affected knee joint. Warm medicated oil or herbal decoctions, tailored to the patient’s specific condition, are then gently poured into the ring. This therapeutic oil is allowed to stay on the knee joint for a specific duration, deeply penetrating the tissues to provide maximum benefit. Once the oil cools, it is replaced with fresh warm oil to maintain consistent heat and therapeutic effect. The session concludes with a gentle massage around the knee area, further enhancing the healing process.
