Warm Oil Chest Therapy
Hridya Basti
What It Is
A dam made of soft dough is built around the chest (hridya) region, and warm medicated oil is poured inside and kept at a steady temperature for a sustained, localized treatment.
Who It's For
Traditionally used to support general chest comfort and relaxation as part of a broader wellness plan.
What to Expect During Your Session
- You'll lie face-up while the dough well is built around the chest.
- Warm oil is poured in and topped up to stay warm for 20–30 minutes.
- Showers aren't available on-site — plan to keep the oil on for a few hours and shower once home.
Preparation & Aftercare
Keep the area warm for the rest of the day. Avoid cold beverages immediately after.
Contraindications
Discuss with your physician if you have an active cardiac or respiratory condition, or a recent chest surgery.
