Product Overview

The Porcelain Khalva Yantra is a classical Ayurvedic apparatus used for preparing Niruha Basti (decoction-based enema therapy) — one of the principal Panchakarma procedures.
Crafted from medical-grade porcelain, this yantra ensures safe, hygienic, and precise administration of medicated herbal decoctions (Kashaya Basti).

Porcelain is traditionally preferred because it is non-reactive, smooth, heat-resistant, and easy to sterilize, ensuring the purity and therapeutic potency of the decoction.
The Kalva Yantra typically includes a main porcelain vessel and pestle, following the functionality described in classical Basti Karma Vidhi.

It is an essential instrument for all Ayurvedic Panchakarma centers, teaching institutions, and hospitals that perform Basti Chikitsa.
