Janu Basti- Ayurvedic Knee Care Treatment
What is Janu Basti?
Our skeletal system is made up of tiny cells that work hard to keep the human body active. But, as time goes by, due to external factors, there is a high chance that these cells lose their ability to function. Ayurvedic treatments can aid in overcoming such issues to a great extent.
Knee joints are considered the body’s load bearers and hence require regular care to avoid external or internal damage.
Janu Basti is an ayurvedic treatment for the knees. Due to external and lifestyle disturbances, knee joints are always ignored till they give some sign of pain as a sign of attention. Inflammation, injury, and age are a few common reasons for knee discomfort.

How is Janu Basti done?
Ayurhitam relies on sacred and ancient therapies to heal the human body. We begin by grounding with a prayer and clear the aura around before we begin any kind of healing therapy.
Our therapist uses ancient method to soothe the knee joints.
A dam of dough is created around the knee and the stiff joints are carefully bathed in warm medicated oils. The dough is often made from organic black gram flour and is carefully arranged around the knee forming a small dam. Warm medicated oil is poured over the knee lubricating the stiff joints and providing comfort and relaxation. The oil is replaced multiple times to retain temperature.
The warm oil increases the flow of oxygen and nutrient-rich blood to the knee joints which relieves the stiffness in the knee. With the increase in blood circulation in the knee area, the joints gain the lost strength to the joints, bones and muscles.
The Janu Basti treatment at Ayurhitam is followed by a relaxing massage by our massage therapist and steam.

Dr Manju and her staff Monica and Yaniz have been amazing with my healing journey.
I had chronic issues with acid reflux … More and gerd cough and it kept getting worse day by day where in I used to gasp for air in middle of sleep due to acid reflux. I came with this issue to Manju and she did a thorough analysis, asked me all kinds of questions and nailed it down to gut issues . She recommended 8 day detox and complete detox process was very smooth and everyone made me feel super comfortable, by the end of my detox my body felt so light and it’s been 4 months now and I haven’t had any acid reflux or gasping of air.
I am extremely happy with my experience and thank u to the whole team for helping me with this as this
