What is Janu Basti?

Janu Basti applies a dough well around the knee and holds warm medicated oil against the joint. The warmth and medicine work into a painful, stiff knee without anything invasive.

It is not internal Basti. Tikta Ksheer Matra Basti — a form of Matra Basti — is a different, internal step in the same knee protocol.

Who it is for

Janu Basti is the oil step for knee pain and osteoarthritis (Sandhigata Vata) at this clinic. It is part of a course, not a one-off spa sitting.

Sitting context at this clinic

Janu Basti sits inside the knee protocol: Janu Basti, Snehan–Swedan, Agnikarma, Viddha Karma and Tikta Ksheer Matra Basti; leech in some cases. Courses are often around 20 days, still severity-dependent.

Day-1 assessment

On the first consult Dr. Chaitanya Gupta tells you whether Panchakarma can help this knee as a primary plan, only support it, or whether a medical opinion should come first. Joint wear is managed, not reversed.

Honest expectations

Janu Basti eases pain and stiffness as part of a plan. About 20 days is a usual band, not a promised length or result.

The Ayurvedic approach

A considered, step-by-step process

Janu Basti is delivered as a planned step inside the knee protocol.

Questions, answered honestly

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Janu Basti the same as Basti (enema)?
No. Janu Basti holds warm oil on the knee. Internal Basti, including Tikta Ksheer Matra Basti, is a medicated enema. Both may be used in the knee protocol; they are classically different.
How many sittings of Janu Basti for knee pain?
Knee courses are often around 20 days, still matched to severity. That is a usual band, not a promise.
Can Panchakarma heal my case?
Decided on day 1 after examination. Some knees can be treated here as a primary plan; some only supported; some need a medical opinion first. Osteoarthritis is managed for comfort — the wear is not undone.
Is this the same as Kati Basti?
Same oil-retention idea, different joint. Kati Basti is the lower back (sciatica family, 3–4 / 7 / 14 days). Janu Basti is the knee (often around 20 days).
