About the Consultation
Janu Basti, where “janu” means knee and “basti” refers to retention, is a specialized Ayurvedic therapy involving warm herbal oil held within a dough well placed directly over the knee joint. This allows the medicated oil to deeply penetrate the joint, ligaments, and surrounding muscles, providing relief from pain, inflammation, and restricted movement.
