Sthanik Basti is localized oil retention therapy in which medicated oil, decoction, or herbal pastes are administered directly to a specific region of the body. Sthanik Basti targets localized musculoskeletal, joint, or neurological disorders, providing focused therapeutic benefits.
The therapy works through direct transdermal absorption of medicated oil into the affected tissues, combined with mechanical and thermal stimulation. This helps relax muscles, reduce inflammation, improve local blood circulation, and enhance nutrient delivery to tissues. The localized application also modulates the peripheral and central nervous system, reducing pain and promoting tissue repair.
