What Is Basti in Panchakarma and How Does It Help with Digestive Issues - #1474
I’ve been researching Panchakarma treatments to help with my chronic constipation and bloating. I came across something called Basti and got curious. From what I understand, it’s an Ayurvedic treatment that involves herbal enemas, but I’m not sure how it actually works or what the benefits are. My Ayurvedic practitioner recommended Basti as part of my detox, but I’m a bit nervous about it. Does Basti really help with digestive issues like bloating and constipation? Is it safe for someone who has a sensitive stomach like mine? Also, what’s the process like—is it painful or uncomfortable? I want to know more before I decide to go through with it.
