Ayurvedic Dough Basti Workshop

Welcome to our Ayurvedic Dough Basti workshop, a transformative experience designed to rejuvenate your muscles, bones, and chakras. In this workshop, we will delve into the ancient Ayurvedic practice of Dough Basti and explore its profound benefits for holistic well-being.

Understanding Dough Basti

Dough Basti, also known as "Upanaha Sweda," is a traditional Ayurvedic therapy that involves the application of a specially prepared herbal dough over specific areas of the body. This therapeutic technique is renowned for its ability to alleviate muscle and bone discomfort while promoting the harmonization of the body's energy centers, known as chakras. Basti in Sanskrit means "vessel".  A dough basti is a vessel, shaped like a donut, to hold medicated oil over a localized area on the body such as: chakra centers, eyes, adrenal glands, knees, and the lower back. The medicated oil then saturates the tissues, glands, and chakras and provides a therapeutic effect.

Benefits for Muscles and Bones

During the workshop, you will discover how Dough Basti serves as a potent remedy for muscle and bone health. The herbal dough, when applied to targeted areas, imparts a deeply nourishing and warming effect, promoting muscle relaxation and flexibility. Additionally, the natural properties of the herbs used in the dough facilitate the alleviation of discomfort in the bones, fostering a sense of rejuvenation and vitality.

Balancing and Energizing the Chakras

Furthermore, our workshop will shed light on the profound impact of Dough Basti on the chakras – the subtle energy centers within the body. Through the application of the herbal dough, participants can experience a harmonizing effect on the chakras, aiding in the release of stagnant energy and fostering a sense of balance and vitality within.
