The Ayurvedic Therapies Behind Your Recovery

Each therapy is selected for the specific joint and condition you present with — not offered as a generic treatment menu.
Pizhichil
Continuous Oil Bath Therapy
Warm medicated oil poured continuously over the body by two to four therapists in synchronised rhythm — deeply Vata-pacifying and one of the most effective whole-body therapies for multi-joint arthritis and chronic stiffness.
A wellness therapist performs Janu Basti treatment by retaining warm medicated oil over a patient's knee using a circular herbal dough reservoir, an Ayurvedic therapy designed to support joint mobility and reduce knee discomfort.
Janu Basti
Knee Joint Oil Retention Therapy
Warm medicated oil is retained within a dough well placed precisely over the knee joint. Janu Basti directly nourishes the cartilage, reduces stiffness, and relieves the inflammatory pain of osteoarthritis and mechanical knee conditions.
Kati Vasti
Lower Back Oil Retention Therapy
Medicated oil is held over the lumbar spine using a similar dough-well technique. Kati Vasti is the primary Ayurvedic therapy for lower back pain, spinal stiffness, and the joint inflammation seen in ankylosing spondylitis.

Greeva Basti
Neck Joint Oil Retention Therapy
The same retention technique applied to the cervical spine — relieving neck stiffness, cervical spondylosis, and the referred shoulder pain that frequently accompanies frozen shoulder presentations.

Panchakarma
Classical Purification Sequence
Virechana and Basti clear the Ama (inflammatory toxins) that drive autoimmune and metabolic joint disease — the foundational purification that prepares the body to respond fully to targeted joint therapies.
Navara Kizhi
Medicated Rice Bolus Massage
Linen boluses filled with medicinal Navara rice in herbal milk decoction are applied rhythmically across affected joints — restoring lubrication, improving muscle support, and reducing joint degeneration markers.

Joint Care Designed Around Where You Live

Joint pain develops differently depending on climate and lifestyle — our assessment accounts for both.
🇷🇺 For Russian Guests
Cold Climate and Joint Health
Prolonged cold exposure constricts blood flow to the joints and increases synovial fluid viscosity — a recognised contributor to joint stiffness and arthritic flare-ups in colder regions. Our protocol specifically addresses this through warming Ayurvedic oils and circulation-focused therapies.

"I had lived with knee pain for six Moscow winters. Janu Basti gave me relief within the first week that no clinic at home had managed in years."

— Elena P., Moscow, Russia

🇩🇪 For German Guests
Active Lifestyle and Joint Wear
Hiking, cycling, and a consistently active lifestyle are well documented contributors to mechanical joint wear over time — particularly in the knees and hips. Our protocol is designed for guests who want to stay active, not stop moving altogether.

"As a regular cyclist, my knee pain was limiting everything I loved. The Pizhichil and Janu Basti combination at Tigris Valley let me return to cycling within two months."

— Hans W., Munich, Germany

How We Treat the Root Cause of Joint Pain

Every joint pain programme begins with assessment — not assumption. We identify what is driving your inflammation before we prescribe.

Inflammatory Testing

CRP, ESR, rheumatoid factor, and uric acid levels are tested on Day 1 to identify the specific inflammatory pattern driving your joint condition.

Anti-Inflammatory Protocol

Ayurvedic herbal formulations — Guggulu, Shallaki, Rasna — prescribed at therapeutic dosages to reduce systemic and joint-specific inflammation.

Dietary Correction

An anti-inflammatory therapeutic diet designed to reduce the dietary triggers — particularly relevant for gout and rheumatoid presentations.

Weight Reduction Support

Where excess weight is increasing joint load, a structured weight management component is built into the programme to reduce mechanical stress.

What Guests Experience

Outcomes are tracked through clinical assessment at the start and end of every programme.

↓ Pain

Measurable pain reduction reported across most guests completing a 14-day or 21-day programme

↑ Mobility

Improved joint range of motion documented through pre- and post-programme physical assessment

↓ NSAIDs

Many guests reduce reliance on anti-inflammatory medication, reviewed in consultation with their physician
Results vary by individual condition, duration, and severity. All outcomes are assessed by our qualified medical team. Medication decisions are made in consultation with your treating physician.

Your Questions, Honestly Answered

Ayurvedic therapies can meaningfully reduce pain, inflammation, and stiffness even in advanced arthritis — though severity affects the realistic outcome. Our doctors assess your condition honestly during the consultation and recommend the appropriate programme duration and therapy combination for your specific presentation.

Many guests notice initial relief within the first week of Janu Basti or Kati Vasti sessions. More significant and lasting improvement typically develops over a 14 to 21-day programme as the anti-inflammatory protocol and Panchakarma purification take effect.

In most cases, yes. Your current medications — including NSAIDs and disease-modifying drugs — are reviewed by our doctor on Day 1. No medication changes are made without explicit clinical guidance, and we coordinate with your home physician where needed.

Ayurveda identifies joint pain as a Vata-driven and inflammatory (Ama) condition, addressed through targeted oil retention therapies, anti-inflammatory herbal formulations, and Panchakarma purification — clearing the toxic load that drives inflammation rather than only masking the pain signal.

Both use the same oil retention technique, applied to different joints. Janu Basti targets the knee joint, while Kati Vasti targets the lower back and lumbar spine. Greeva Basti, a third variation, targets the neck. Your Vaidya prescribes the specific Basti based on your affected joint.

Our programme is a non-surgical, non-medication-dependent alternative for many joint conditions. For severe structural damage, surgery may still be clinically necessary — our doctors will advise honestly if your condition falls into this category during your assessment.

Contact us via our website or WhatsApp at +91 91070 40040. Your first step is a consultation with our team to review your joint condition, current medications, and recommend the most suitable programme duration and therapy combination.
