Janu Vasti Therapy

(Knee therapy)

Janu Vasti therapy is an ayurvedic knee joint therapy, where warm medicated oil is retained in a dough ring around the knee. It is effective for arthritis, joint stiffness, joint pain, and cartilage degeneration.   

How Janu Vasti Therapy Works?

 Janu Vasti is designed to relieve knee pain and promote the health of the knee joint. It involves the application of warm, medicated oil that is retained in a dough ring placed around the knee. The heat from the oil penetrates deeply into the tissues, helping to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and relieve pain and stiffness in the knee joint. This therapy is particularly beneficial for conditions like oste

Janu Vasti Therapy Procedure

Preparation: The patient is made to sit or lie down in a comfortable position with the affected knee exposed. A dough ring, made from a special Ayurvedic paste, is placed around the knee to create a boundary that holds the oil in place. 

Oil Application: Warm, medicated oil is poured into the dough ring, ensuring that the knee is fully immersed in the oil. The oil is allowed to soak into the skin and underlying tissues for maximum therapeutic benefit. 

Oil Retention: The warm oil is kept in place for approximately 20 to 30 minutes, allowing the healing properties of the oil to deeply penetrate the joint and surrounding muscles. 

Post-Treatment Care: After the therapy, the excess oil is removed, and the knee may be gently massaged. The patient is encouraged to rest and follow up with any necessary dietary or lifestyle recommendations.

    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 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.
