Basti is a type of Ayurvedic therapy that involves the introduction of herbal oils or decoctions into the rectum. It is considered one of the five main cleansing procedures in Ayurveda, known as Panchakarma.
The aim of Basti is to balance the doshas, or the three vital energies of the body – Vata, Pitta and Kapha. This treatment can help with constipation, arthritis, back pain, urinary disorders, menstrual problems and certain neurological disorders.
Nasya is an Ayurvedic therapy that involves the administration of herbal oils, juices or powders through the nose. It is one of the five Panchakarma techniques that work to cleanse and purify the head and mind.
Nasya is beneficial for ear, nose and throat disorders such as sinusitis, headache, migraine and cervical spondylosis. It also helps to balance the doshas and improve mental clarity and awareness.
