Vasti

Best for colic, kidney stones, afflictions of the spleen

The effects of Vasti therapy are felt in the colon, the prime abode of the Vata. With the application of a series of purifying and nourishing Vastis, the morbid Doshas and other toxins trapped for long in the tissues are eliminated. This restores the equilibrium of the humors. Vasti is good for colic, calculus, kidney stones, afflictions of the spleen and many other diseases caused by a Vata disorder. It is not to be used on individuals having diabetes, haemorrhoids, persistent hiccups, obesity or injuries of the anus. In Vasti treatment lukewarm and freshly prepared Vasti liquid is injected into the colon via the rectum.
