The basti treatment is a topical pain relief treatment. It is performed by pouring warm medicinal (herb) oil pourings on the source of the pain. Depending on where the pain comes from and the symptoms, the basti can be performed on various locations on the body. The treatment may be performed on the back, knee, belly button, lower abdomen, neck or shoulders. A dam is created around the treatment area using dough and it will be filled up with warm medicinal (herb) oil. To keep the oil on the optimal temperature, the oil is regularly refreshed. The choice of medicinal oil that we will use will be adjusted to the nature of your symptoms. On completion there will be a light massage.This treatment stimulates and nourishes, soothes the pain and stimulates relaxation.
