Basti (Medicated Enemas)
70% of all diseases, conditions and/or imbalances can be handled by Basti treatments. The colon and large intestines main function is to gather wastes, un-usable substances and toxins then eliminate them from the body. Over time these toxins accumulate here and then spread to other areas causing disease. Bastis, medicated enemas, are a series of freshly prepared medicated decoction and oil enemas which eliminate these accumulated toxins within the colon and then completely re-nourishes the tissue. Basti is not colonics which only pressure washes the intestinal lining. Bastis do more than cleanse the lining, but through careful preparation, proper herbs and freshly prepared medicated oils, and specific timing, restores the quality of tissues and greatly increases the quality of function. Basti require one week of pre-treatments to draw toxins that have spread to other parts of the body back to the colon and prepare for elimination. Prices vary on length of treatment and herbs needed.
