How does Vasti work to improve my health?
Vasti primarily targets the large intestine, which is considered the seat of Vata dosha. By introducing medicated substances, it helps to:
- Eliminate toxins (Ama): It flushes out accumulated waste and toxins from the colon.
- Balance Vata Dosha: It pacifies imbalanced Vata, which is responsible for many health issues.
- Nourish tissues: Certain types of Vasthi lubricate and strengthen the bodily tissues.
- Improve digestion: It promotes healthy bowel function and nutrient absorption.
- Support various systems: Its systemic effects can benefit the nervous system, musculoskeletal system, and more.
