Therapy

Janu Basti

The same sustained oleation technique, built over the knee joint.

What it is

A dough ring is formed around the knee and filled with warm medicated oil, held at temperature throughout. The treatment delivers oil to the joint capsule and surrounding structures continuously.

What it helps

Osteoarthritis of the knee, chronic knee pain, stiffness, reduced range of movement, and post-injury joint weakness.

What to expect

Comfortable and entirely painless. Usually given alongside internal medication and, where appropriate, Basti. Knees rarely respond to local treatment alone.
