Choosing between Dashamoola, Mahanarayan, and Ksheerabala Taila based on predominant symptoms seems like a sensible way to tailor the therapy.

The contraindication list for Greeva Basti feels a bit buried. Someone with an unstable cervical spine or recent disc prolapse could easily miss those warnings if they’re just skimming for the procedure steps.

Practical question — can Greeva Basti and Nasya be done in the same sitting or on the same day, or should they be kept separate? The protocol is detailed but doesn’t seem to address combining therapies.

Is Greeva Basti compatible with Nasya if both are being recommended for cervical complaints, or should they be run as separate courses?

The contraindications for Greeva Basti are listed but they could use more prominence. Acute cervical injury and recent spinal surgery in particular seem like they warrant a clear warning rather than just appearing in a list.
