How Does Vasti in Ayurveda Work, and What Conditions Can It Treat? - #13018

Anonymously

I have been researching Ayurvedic therapies for detoxification and pain relief, and I came across Vasti in Ayurveda, which is said to be one of the most effective Panchakarma treatments. From what I understand, it involves the administration of medicated oils or herbal decoctions through enema therapy to remove toxins, improve digestion, and treat joint and back pain. I want to know how Vasti in Ayurveda actually works and whether it is suitable for conditions like chronic constipation, arthritis, and spinal problems. Are there different types of Vasti for different health concerns, such as Sneha Vasti and Kashaya Vasti? Also, how many sessions are typically required for noticeable results? If anyone has undergone Vasti in Ayurveda, please share your experience. Did it help in improving digestion, pain relief, or detoxification? Also, is it necessary to visit an Ayurvedic clinic for this therapy, or can it be done at home under expert guidance?

Vasti in Ayurveda is a key Panchakarma therapy that involves administering medicated oils (Sneha Vasti) or herbal decoctions (Kashaya Vasti) through enema to remove toxins, balance Vata dosha, and support digestive and musculoskeletal health. It is highly effective for chronic constipation, arthritis, spinal disorders, and nerve-related pain by nourishing tissues and reducing inflammation. The number of sessions varies, but a full course typically includes 8 to 30 treatments depending on the condition. While it provides significant relief in digestion, detoxification, and pain management, it is best performed under professional supervision in an Ayurvedic clinic, as incorrect administration can lead to complications.
