In Sanskrit the word Greeva refers to neck and Basti stands for a container. So the procedure, in which warm Medicated oil is allowed to stand on back of neck as shown in the figure, is called as the Greeva Basti. This procedure is very useful in maintaining normal structure and working of neck region.

A reservoir made of black gram dough is built up on the neck which will

gauze and the procedure is repeated a few times.
The oil and the receptacle are kept on for about half an hour. After
removing them, the affected area may be gently massaged with the same
oil. The patient is then made to take rest for a short while.
