NEW! Janu Basti is now offered at Ayurveda Rituals Healing Escape in Bewdley, Ontario
Are you experiencing knee pain, stiffness, weakness, or limited mobility—especially during the cold, windy Vata season? Discover Janu Basti, an ancient Ayurveda therapy that nourishes, lubricates, and rejuvenates the knee joints using warm herbal medicated oils.
What is Janu Basti?
In Sanskrit:
Janu = Knee
Basti = To hold or contain
Janu Basti is a deeply therapeutic treatment where a well (dam) of warm dough made from healing chickpea flour is formed around the knee. This creates a pond to hold warm, medicated oils directly over the affected joint, allowing the healing herbs to penetrate deeply into ligaments, tendons, bones, and cartilage.
