Ayurvedic Basti Treatment Benefits - #3212

I’ve been looking into different Ayurvedic therapies, and basti keeps coming up as something really important, especially for detox. But I still don’t fully understand what Ayurvedic basti treatment benefits are or if it’s right for someone like me. Here’s my story, and maybe someone can help clarify things for me? For the last few years, I’ve been struggling with chronic constipation, bloating, and just this general feeling of heaviness in my body. I also have really stiff joints, particularly in the mornings. I’ve tried everything high-fiber diets, probiotics, yoga nothing really fixes it, just gives temporary relief. A friend of mine suggested I look into Ayurveda, and during my research, I came across Ayurvedic basti treatment benefits. It sounds promising, but I’m a bit nervous because it’s not something you hear about in regular healthcare. From what I’ve read, basti is part of Panchakarma and involves some kind of herbal oil enema? Is that correct? People keep mentioning that Ayurvedic basti treatment benefits include balancing vata dosha and detoxifying the colon, but I’m not sure what that means in practice. My main concern is whether it’ll actually help with my digestion issues and this constant sense of sluggishness. I also wonder if it can help with stress and anxiety, which have been a big part of my life lately. I work in a high-pressure job, and my energy levels are just all over the place. It feels like my body is stuck and not functioning like it should. Are Ayurvedic basti treatment benefits limited to physical health, or do they extend to mental well-being too? I’ve never tried any Ayurvedic therapies before, so I’m not sure how intense or time-consuming basti is. Do you have to follow a strict diet before and after? I’ve also heard there are different types of basti depending on your dosha - how do I know which one is right for me? Are there any risks or side effects I should be aware of? If anyone here has done basti or knows more about Ayurvedic basti treatment benefits, I’d love to hear your experiences. Does it really make a noticeable difference, or is it one of those things where you have to go multiple times to see results? I’m looking for something natural but effective, and I really hope this could be the answer.
