What are the benefits of Vasti in Ayurveda for detoxification and health? - #13705
I’ve been dealing with digestive issues, bloating, and sluggish metabolism for a while now. I read about Vasti in Ayurveda, a therapeutic enema treatment, which is used to detoxify the body, improve digestion, and balance the doshas. I’m interested in how it works and whether it can help with my symptoms, as it seems to have many health benefits. From what I’ve learned, Vasti in Ayurveda involves the introduction of medicated liquids or herbal decoctions into the colon to remove toxins (Ama) from the body. It’s said to be particularly beneficial for treating Vata imbalances, constipation, and other digestive problems. There are different types of Vasti, such as Kashaya Vasti (herbal decoction) and Sneha Vasti (oil-based), depending on the condition. Has anyone experienced Vasti in Ayurveda? What benefits did you notice? Was it helpful for digestive issues or detoxification? How many sessions are generally required for noticeable results? Another thing—are there any side effects or risks associated with Vasti in Ayurveda? Is this therapy safe for everyone, or should it be avoided by people with certain health conditions? Would love to hear from anyone who has tried Vasti for health and wellness!
