Greeva Vasti Therapy

(Neck therapy)

Greeva Vast is an ayurvedic therapy that focuses on neck pain and stiffness. It is a localized treatment where warm medicated oil is retained in a dough ring placed on the neck to relieve cervical pain, stiffness, and spondylosis.  

How Greeva Vasti Therapy Works?

Greeva Vasti focuses on the neck and upper spine. This therapy involves the application of warm, medicated oil to the affected area, held within a boundary created by a dough ring around the neck. The warm oil is retained in this area for a specific period, allowing the body to absorb the healing properties of the oil. The warmth of the oil helps relax the muscles, relieve stiffness, and improve circulation to the neck and spine. It is particularly effective in alleviating tension, pain, and stiffness in the neck area.

Greeva Vasti Therapy Procedure

Preparation: The patient lies down comfortably, usually in a relaxed position. A dough ring is created around the neck or upper back area to hold the warm, medicated oil in place. 

Oil Application: The practitioner pours warm, specially prepared medicated oil into the dough ring, ensuring that the oil fully covers the neck and sometimes the shoulders. The oil is gently massaged into the area to enhance absorption. 

Retention of Oil: The warm oil is left on the area for about 20 to 30 minutes, allowing the therapeutic effects of the oil to work on the muscles and tissues. 

Post-treatment Care: After the oil is removed, the area is gently massaged again to enhance the effects, and the patient is allowed to rest.

    I’ve been seeing doctors for the past 10 years, dealing with everything from a simple cold to more serious stuff like shoulder tendonitis, which required an injection. Wanting to avoid ongoing treatments, I turned to Ayurveda. Since then, my shoulders are back to feeling as good as new. Later on, I also got treated for ulcerative colitis and it’s all gone now. It’s amazing—every issue I’ve had has been fixed without any long-term problems.

    I took treatment in this Hospital for knee pain and blood circulation in left foot from 5th Sept to 16th Sept 2024. I took a consultation with Dr. Sri Krishna, a Competent, Calm, and Cool person. Above all 6th Generation doctor of this ancient hospital! There is a say that, when you meet your doctor, half of your ailments will disappear, actually it happened with me! He advised me to take 10 days of external treatment like Abhyanga, Janu Basti.. along with oral medicines...

    I met Dr.Sampoorna who helped me with the treatment for my vericose veins. I underwent 14 days treatment in Shree Ayurvedic hospital. The 5 girls who helped me with the treatment were really kind and helpful. Even the staffs were really kind. I can see a good improvement in the condition after getting the treatment. Hope it gets even more better in the future.
