== Indications ==
 
<p style="text-align:justify;">Yapana basti is indicated for purification (shodhana), nourishment (brimhana) with  proper functioning of vayu (vata anulomana). These are mridu basti. [Cha. Sa. Siddhi Sthana 12/29], hence these are indicated in diseases due to vata pitta vitiation and depletion of shukra and mamsa dhatu (ksheena). <br/>It is indicated in following conditions: </p>
<ol style="text-align:justify;"><li>Vishama jvara [Cha. Sa. Chikitsa Sthana 3/302]<br/>
Visham jwara is a condition where both strength (bala) of dosha  and dhatu are diminished. Hence these types of fevers come intermittently.</li>
<li>Halimaka [Cha. Sa. Chikitsa Sthana 16/136]<br/>
Halimaka is state where vata and pitta are excessively increased and have excessive bala – shukra kshaya, redering the patient in very critical condition.</li>
<li>Avrutta vata  [Cha. Sa. Chikitsa Sthana 28/240]<br/>
Long standing conditions of avrutta vayu inevitabely lead to emaciation of dhatu (shosha). Here yapan is used to increase dhatu as well as to achieve sroto shodhana and vata anulomana.</li>
<li>Jara sambhavaja klaibya  [Cha. Sa. Chikitsa Sthana 30/203]<br/>
Jara is a condition where rasa dhatu is unable to nourish all other dhatus </li>
<li>Pain in lower half of body <br/>
It eradicates pain from rectum, thighs, knee joints, scrotum and bladder. (  Payu janu uru vrushan basti shulnut)  [Aas. Hru. Kalpa Sthana 4/29]</li></ol>
