The word ‘basti’ denotes therapeutic procedure of enema. It is one of the five purification procedures ([[panchakarma]]). Basti also spelled as vasti, literally means bladder or an injection-syringe made of bladder or injection itself.<ref>Monier-Williams, Monier-Williams Sanskrit- English Dictionary, 1st edition; Oxford University Press, Vasti, Page 933</ref> In anatomical perspective, the urinary bladder is called as basti. In ancient times, the bladder of animals (mainly goat or buffalo) was used to administer enema therapy, hence the therapy is knows as ‘basti’. [A.S.Sutra Sthana 28/2]<ref name= Sangraha> Vridha Vagbhata, Ashtanga Sangraha. Edited by Shivaprasad Sharma. 3rd ed. Varanasi: Chaukhamba sanskrit series office;2012.</ref> It is the best treatment for disorders of [[vata dosha]]. [Cha.Sa. [[Sutra Sthana]] 25/40]. Due to the primary importance of [[vata dosha]] in causing diseases, basti is considered as the chief treatment among [[panchakarma]]. [Su.Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 35/3]<ref name= Susruta> Sushruta.

In therapeutic management, it denotes medicated enema with decoction, oils or any other fluid either in rectum or urethra or vagina. The term ‘uttara basti’ is used for enema given through anterior orifice like urethra or vagina. In unction therapy, local therapeutic procedures like keeping warm oils or medicated substance on affected body part are used. These procedures are termed after name of affected part as suffix to the word ‘basti’. E.g. ‘janu basti’ means keeping warm medicated substance on knee joint; ‘kati basti’ means keeping it on the lumbar region. Most commonly, the term ‘basti’ indicates per rectal enema. Hence this article focuses on therapeutic enema given per rectum.

Some enemas are known by their total quantity of ingredients. The measurement ‘prasruta’ (one prasruta = 96 ml) is used to calculate proportion of ingredients and total quantity of enema.  The maximum allowable dosage of decoction enema is 1152ml (12 prasruta). The dosage 1 prasruta is considered as 96 ml as per Ayurvedic Formulary of India. Posology varies from person to person according to Ayurveda. Here ‘prasruta’ is defined as the dosage of liquid in the patient's hollowed palm.

The medicated enema with decoction of herbs as main ingredient is called ‘niruhabasti’. It is also known as ‘kashaya basti’. The word ‘niruha’ indicates its extensive therapeutic potency. As it stabilizes (sthapana) the [[dosha]], it is also known as ‘asthapana basti’. [A.S.Sutra Sthana 28/6]<ref name=Sangraha/>

After all enema medicine is in the rectum, the patient is advised to lie in supine position till he feels the urge for defecation. When the patient feels the urge, it shall pass. The time duration the administration of medicine and its evacuation is called as retention enema. The decoction enema is expected to come out within 48 minutes after administration.

Anuvasana basti is a type of medicated enema with unctuous substances like oils, ghee etc. It is also called as ‘sneha basti’. The term ‘anuvasana’ means that can be followed daily. Hence the unctuous enema can be administered daily (anu divasa) without any complications. [Su.Sa.Chikitsa Sthana 35/18]<ref name=Susruta/> Unlike niruhabasti, this enema formulation contains unctuous substances only. Medicated oils are widely used in this therapy to produce unctuousness in the body. [A.S. Sutra Sthana 28/7]<ref name=Sangraha/>

Panchamooladikaala basti is reported to be effective in reducing the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (amavata) especially  pain, stiffness, swelling and tenderness in the joints. It is also found effective in reducing the generalized symptoms like heaviness of body, fatigue, feverishness and anorexia. Basti acts over the prime seat of [[vata dosha]] i.e. large intestine (pakvashaya) and controls it. The alkali present in the kshara basti improves digestion and removes the accumulated toxins (ama).<ref name=BariaR>Baria R, Joshi N, Pandya D.

Panchamooladikaala basti is reported to be effective in reducing the symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis (amavata) especially  pain, stiffness, swelling and tenderness in the joints. It is also found effective in reducing the generalized symptoms like heaviness of body, fatigue, feverishness and anorexia. Basti acts over the prime seat of [[vata dosha]] i.e. large intestine (pakvashaya) and controls it. The alkali present in the kshara basti improves digestion and removes the accumulated toxins (ama).<ref name=BariaR>Baria R, Joshi N, Pandya D.
