Rakta is thought to be the source of life and the thing that keeps life going. For this reason, we must make every effort to defend it.
Rasa dhatu, the initial dhatu, is where rakta is created. Ranjaka pitta's action is what gives blood its red colour.
When it enters the liver and spleen, it turns into a crimson colour.

One of the most successful and tried-and-true Ayurvedic treatments for persistent knee pain, stiffness, inflammation, and damage is janu vasti.

In Janu Vasti, the words "Janu" and "Bast" both allude to the knee joint.
In the Janu Vasti Ayurveda treatment, gramme flour is used to keep warm, pain-relieving herbal oils on the problematic area for a period of time. This is followed by a light massage, or abhyanga.

Whether treating a common cold, a high fever, a sore throat, or lower back discomfort, Ayurvedic therapies never concentrate on lessening symptoms. Instead, they'll take a thorough approach that contributes to the development and maintenance of holistic well-being.
In Ayurveda, kati vasti treatment is used to assist people with lower back pain and other related issues. According to its definition, kati vasti is a lumbosacral or lower back therapy that uses heat and oil. Also, the goal is to aid in optimising vata dosha levels.

Those with lower back pain issues are claimed to benefit from kati vasti Ayurveda treatment. Herbal oils' healing, nourishing, and strengthening characteristics begin to work on the muscles and tissues in the treated area as soon as therapy begins.
The heated herbal oils may lubricate the joints as they are absorbed, allowing for easier, more fluid movement and ultimately eliminating issues with mobility and flexibility.
In general, lower back discomforts such lumbar spondylitis, intervertebral disc prolapses, lumbago (lower back pain), and sciatica are claimed to benefit from kati vasti Ayurvedic treatment.

NIRUHA BASTI

Vamana, Virechana, Basti, Nasya, and Raktamokshana are the five therapies that make up Panchakarma therapy, which helps the body detoxify and regenerate. Basti is thought to be the most successful of these five treatments.

It is a type of enema therapy wherein the body is given herbal oils or decoctions to calm the Vata Dosha and heal Vata problems. Basti comes in two main varieties: Niruha Basti and Anuvasana Basti.

Herbal infusions or Kashya are used in Niruha Basti, often referred to as Kashya Basti, to help the body get rid of toxins.

BENEFITS

Pacifies VATA DOSHA- Niruha Basti is most successful at calming the body's aggravated Vata Dosha, even though it can aid in the expulsion of all vitiated Doshas. The bulk of ailments are attributed to Vata imbalance, which is considered the king of the doshas in Ayurveda.
Vata must therefore be balanced in order to maintain good health.

DETOXIFICATION- Niruha Basti is a detoxification technique that aids in the removal of toxic toxins from the body. The colon is crucial to the body's detoxification process.
Niruha Basti stimulates the colon to expel toxins via bowel and urine movements.

Treats Half of the Diseases: Basti aids in the treatment of the majority of ailments since it nourishes the tissues and aids in the removal of the exacerbated Doshas from the body. As a result, Basti is referred to in Ayurveda as Ardhachikitsa. It implies that it is successful in treating 50 percent of all illnesses that affect the body.

Enhances Digestion: Niruha Basti might assist the colon in eliminating waste from the body. Constipation is alleviated, and the digestive tract is stimulated, which enhances digestion. Niruha Basti helps the body better absorb nutrients by cleansing the intestines.

Enhances Metabolism: Niruha Basti helps to alleviate bloating and enhance metabolic processes in the body by cleansing the intestines.

Activate Nervous System: Niruha Basti supports the body's nervous system by regulating serotonin levels. As a result, it supports a number of neurological and psychological processes.

THERAPEUTIC BENEFITS:

Niruha Basti is mostly used to treat Vata issues since it aids in the body's removal of excess Vata. The following is a list of certain ailments for which Niruha Basti has been shown to be very helpful:
Insomnia, sadness, chronic fatigue, and stress Neuro-muscular conditions Menstrual problems, PMS symptoms, endometriosis, and infertility, Lower back pain, sciatica, headache, earache, knee pain, etc.; osteoporosis; rheumatism; gout; arthritis; kidney stones; facial paralysis; chronic constipation; and other conditions. Skin conditions like psoriasis and eczema.

KASHAYA DHARA:

Kashaya means “Decoction”, Dhara means “to pour”. A procedure called Kashaya Dhara involves pouring a medicinal decoction over the entire body while maintaining a particular height, rhythm, and temperature.

The heated decoction that is applied to the body during Kashaya dhara allows the body to properly perspire and detoxify as a result.

The decoction's medicinal ingredients come into touch with the skin and pass via the skin's pores. Because the operation is carried out at a specific height and a specific temperature is maintained, the medication can easily enter the pores by heat action and friction. The medicine's capacity to pass via skin pores is improved.
The warmth that is maintained throughout treatment causes vasodilatation, which results in increased blood flow through the area, supplying it with the nutrients and oxygen it needs while also removing the toxins that cause the condition.

BENEFITS
Kashaya Dhara is useful in the below mentioned conditions –
Vata Rogas – diseases caused by vitiated Vata
Vata-Kapha Rogas – diseases caused by combined vitiation of vata and kapha
Pitta Rogas – diseases caused by vitiated pitta but invariably having association with kapha

Kati-Prishta Shula – Pain in the spine, low back

In addition to being used for skin and hair care, the herbal milk that is applied to your body functions as a moisturiser and relieves stress, anxiety, and tension.

It is used to treat problems of the head and neck, lock jaw, facial paralysis, and Vata Dosha imbalance. Although though Ksheera Dhooma is a form of Sweda, it is called a Dhooma because steam is inhaled via the mouth that is open wide.

BENEFITS
Ksheera Dhooma provides numerous advantages, including promoting healthy blood circulation, mental relaxation, lubrication of the joints, and relief from pain, muscle spasms, and stiffness.

KARNA PURNA

Karna means "ear," while poorana means "full." Warm, medicinal herbal oil is gently poured into the ear canal as part of the treatment, filling the canal completely. Simply put, a lubricating herbal wash is supplied to the internal ear.
It is a successful treatment for conditions affecting the ears, such as ear infections, earaches, tinnitus (ear ringing), and hearing loss. Also, it is an effective treatment for disorders brought on by vata imbalance.
The vata dosha predominates in the ear. The ears are impacted by a cold, dry breeze, loud noises, and bombardment noises, which in turn affects the body's vata equilibrium.
The vata dosha in the body is brought back into equilibrium by energising, guarding, and cleaning the ear.

So, it is crucial to both a person's physical and mental health. As it is exposed to the outside world, it is most susceptible to disease. There are numerous factors that contribute to skin issues, but today's hectic and stressful lifestyle stands out. Skin conditions can affect anyone at any age, including newborns and the elderly.

Nasya is a medicinal procedure in which Nasa is used to administer the medication (Medicated Oil/Ghee/ Decoction/ Powder/Smoke etc.) primarily to eliminate the vitiated Dosha found in Shira. Nasya can affect the entire body indirectly by improving the way the neurological system and endocrine glands function. Nasya is described in the classics for various supra-clavicular conditions as well as for systemic illnesses.

BENEFITS
Nasya is a fantastic treatment for headaches, migraines, sinus clearing, and nasal channel clearing to improve breathing. A point-stimulating face massage is followed by the inhalation of herbal steam and the application of oils through the nose.
