It is especially effective for neck pain, cervical discomfort, and stiffness caused by stress, poor posture, or prolonged screen use.
About Greeva Basti
In Ayurveda, localized Basti therapies are used to address pain, degeneration, and Vata imbalance in specific areas of the body. Greeva Basti works by delivering warmth and medicinal oils directly to the affected region, allowing deep penetration into muscles, joints, and nerves.
This therapy helps reduce dryness, improve flexibility, and strengthen the cervical region while calming the nervous system.
