  5. Nasya karma (nasal purge)


Types of Anuvasan Vasti

 

  1. Anuvasan vasti is generally given by the method as follows
  2. Nirooh vasti
  3. Uttar vasti

 

Anuvasan vasti is also known as Snehan vasti. It consists of oil ghee or vasa (animal fats) and medications. Anuvasan vasti is to be given after proper purva karma i.e. Snehan and swedan. Anuvasan vasti can be administered even as a purva roopa but it is generally given after as the sequence is maintained. After virechan karma is performed generally a gap of seven days is maintained so as to reignite the jatharagni or the digestive fire anuvasan vasti is administered. Even after performing anuvasan and nirooh vasti anuvasan vasti is being given

Anuvasan vasti is indicated in people who have voracious appetite (ati Agni), in person who are very ruksh or in those afflicted by pure vata i.e. unmixed with pitta or kapha.
