Ayurvedam Janu Basti – Ayurvedic Knee Therapy for Pain Relief & Joint Health

– Ayurvedam’s Janu Basti Therapy is a specialized Ayurvedic treatment designed to nourish the knees, improve joint function, and relieve stiffness and discomfort. Before beginning the therapy, every guest undergoes a brief doctor consultation and Nadi Parikshan, after which our Ayurvedic doctor selects the most suitable oils and herbal formulations from Ayurvedam’s manufactured products based on the individual’s dosha. This ensures that the therapy is personalized, safe, and effective in addressing specific knee-related concerns.

Ayurvedic Janu Basti is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing knee pain, swelling, or reduced mobility due to age, lifestyle, or physical activity. By combining traditional Ayurvedic techniques, warm herbal oils, and targeted pressure-point work, Janu Basti Massage promotes joint strength, reduces inflammation, and provides soothing relief for aching knees. This therapy is ideal for seniors, athletes, working professionals, and anyone seeking natural support for knee health.

1. Oil Application inside the Dough:

– The therapy begins with the application of a specially prepared flour dough around the knee joint. This dough helps localize the treatment, keeping the area warm and allowing the active ingredients to penetrate effectively. In Ayurvedic Janu Basti, the dough acts as a medium to retain heat and enhance absorption of medicinal oils applied in the next step. This step ensures that the knee receives deep nourishment and support for better flexibility.

– Once the dough is in place, Ayurvedam’s carefully selected natural oils is applied over it. The oil, chosen based on the client’s dosha during the initial consultation, seeps into the dough and gradually absorbs into the knee joint. This process provides gentle relief from pain and stiffness, helping to reduce swelling and inflammation. Regular Janu Basti Treatment supports joint mobility and comfort, making it an effective solution for knee discomfort caused by long-term activity, age, or strain.

3. Pressure-Point Massage on the Knee:   

– The final step of Ayurvedic Janu Basti Therapy involves a gentle pressure-point massage around the knee and the backside of the joint. This massage helps stimulate circulation, ease tension, and further reduce stiffness. By focusing on key reflex points, the massage enhances the effects of the herbal oil and dough, supporting the overall function of the knee joint. Many clients experience improved flexibility, reduced pain, and a sense of lightness and comfort after this stage.
