A significant number of Australians grapple with back and neck pain due to sedentary lifestyles and poor postures, often attributed to increased computer and mobile phone usage. Unfortunately, many have accepted this discomfort as a norm, neglecting the memory of a pain-free body. Enter Basti treatments, unique Ayurvedic therapies designed to address musculoskeletal issues in the back and neck.
Kati, Prushta, and Greeva treatments target the lumbar, thoracic, and cervical regions, respectively. These therapies involve applying warm medicated oil within a dough dam to the spine areas, softening and nourishing muscles, ligaments, and tendons. The heated oils boost blood flow, reducing swelling and delivering essential nutrients for tissue repair. Best administered as a series, these treatments offer cumulative benefits, gradually addressing underlying imbalances and promoting long-lasting relief. Viśhva helps tailor the frequency and duration to each individual's needs.
Kati Basti is commonly used in Ayurvedic medicine to address a variety of back-related issues and conditions. Some circumstances in which Kati Basti may be used include:
Chronic Lower Back Pain
Muscle Stiffness and Spasms

Process
The procedure begins with a consultation to assess the individual's condition, followed by the preparation of a dough ring, made from special grains, and placed on the back's affected area. Warm herbal oil is poured into this reservoir, retained for around 20 to 30 minutes at a specific temperature, and then gently massaged into the tissues. The treatment aims to alleviate pain, improve circulation and mobility, and promote relaxation. Afterward, the patient rests, and post-procedure care advice is provided for maintaining the benefits.
