Janu Basti (Therapeutic Pooling of Oil Over Knees)

Kati and Janu Basti - Jeevdhaari Keraliya Ayurveda
Duration: 45 Minutes

How it is performed

In Janu Basti, a small well is made over the knee joint using dough, and warm herbal oil is poured and retained within it for a specific duration. This allows the knee to be soaked in healing warmth.

How it works

The warmth of the oil penetrates deep into the knee tissues, reducing stiffness, improving circulation, and nourishing the surrounding muscles and joints. The herbal properties also help ease inflammation and strengthen the knee structure.

Health Benefits

Janu Basti is especially effective for managing knee pain, arthritis, joint stiffness, and sports injuries. It improves mobility, strengthens the knees, and provides lasting relief and flexibility.
