Ayurvedic wisdom explains the potential side effects of performing too many cleansing enema treatments, called Niruha basti. As this quote explains, the risk may lead to an increase of Vata Dosha. As a result, this may cause excess gas, bloating, anxiety and feelings of instability.

Ayurvedic wisdom explains the importance of balancing cleansing enemas with oil-based enemas, call Anuvasana basti. This provides a balance between nourishment and cleansing, offering a deeper impact on all of the bodily tissues.
