Greeva Vasti is a specialized Ayurvedic therapy from Kerala that targets the cervical spine, offering relief from neck and upper back conditions. Similar to Katee Vasti, this procedure involves creating a small reservoir around the back of the neck, which is then filled with warm, medicated oil.
The therapy is designed to be held in place for a specific duration, allowing the medicated oil to exert its anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects. Greeva Vasti helps to alleviate cervical pains by deeply cleansing and enriching the blood, strengthening muscles and connective tissues, and lubricating the joints to maintain flexibility and reduce pain.
This treatment is particularly beneficial for addressing conditions such as cervical spondylosis, stiff neck, and pain due to overstrain. By improving circulation and reducing inflammation, Greeva Vasti promotes overall comfort and enhances the health of the cervical spine and surrounding structures.
