Service Description

Targeted Ayurvedic Oil Therapy for Pain Relief & Organ Support This therapy requires a prior consult (minimum: 30 mins) to determine if the therapy is suitable for you, if not, what therapy would be and the herbal oil to use (waived if 90 minute initial consultation is done). At our Ayurvedic clinic in Sunnyvale, CA, we offer specialized Basti therapies including Kati Basti, Janu Basti, Greeva Basti, Hrid Basti, and Nabhi Basti. These traditional Ayurvedic treatments use warm, medicated herbal oils retained over a specific area of the body to deeply nourish tissues, relieve pain, and balance Vata. A small reservoir made of herbal dough is placed over the affected area and filled with warm oil, allowing sustained absorption and therapeutic heat. Each session is performed by an Ayurvedic Practitioner and Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), combining classical Ayurvedic technique with skilled therapeutic care.
