Ayurvedic treatment for lower back pain 

The waist area of the body is called Kati. Vasti in Kativasti implies a container. Kativasti is an effective therapy of Ayurveda for Katisula, which is the term for lower backache or stiffness or pain felt down the back.

In this treatment the patient is made to lie face down on the Droni and a rectangular reservoir made of black gram dough is built up on the lower back, around the lumbo-sacral area. And lukewarm medicinal oil, that alleviates pain and strengthens the bone tissues, is slowly poured into it.

For severe conditions of Sciatica and osteo-arthritis of the hip, the latter condition characterized by severe pain radiating down the leg, a combination of palliative and eliminatory measures is necessary to prevent a relapse.

Ayurveda is the oldest science of healing. It is a science and art of appropriate living which helps to achieve longevity. According to Ayurveda principle there are two different treatments, one is palliative and the other one is purificatory. 

To achieve a balanced state of body, mind and consciousness, Ayurveda prescribes purificatory therapy i.e Panchakarma for the cleansing of body toxins. Kativasti, a part of pre-operative procedure prior to Panchakarma is a very effective treatment for lower backache.

The waist area of the body is called Kati. Holding warm ayurvedic oils on the affected areas is called Vasti. Kati Vasti involves retention of warm thick medicated oil over the lower back or other parts of the spine for certain period.

The patient is asked to lie face down on the bed, and is applied medicated oil locally around the lumbo-sacral region. Then, a reservoir made of black gram dough is built around the lumbo-sacral area. Ensuring leak-proof, a lukewarm medicinal oil around 200-300ml is slowly poured into it. 

The temperature of oil is maintained reheating and continuously adding more oil. The oil is kept on for 30-40 minutes. 

Once this part of the treatment is over, the affected area may be gently massaged, followed by a steaming for 10-15 minutes for better absorption of the medicine. It is usually done in a course of 5 to 7 days as required according to Ayurveda practitioner.
