About this therapy
Let Ayurveda put a permanent full stop to your incessant backaches with Kati basti - a proven Ayurvedic treatment for assuaging lower backaches.
Kati Basti is an Ayurvedic treatment specifically designed to address lower back issues. The term "Kati" refers to the lower back, and "Basti" refers to a therapeutic procedure involving the application of medicated substances. Kati Basti involves creating a reservoir of warm, medicated oil or decoction on the lower back, which is thought to relieve pain and improve health in that region.
Indicated for Lower Back Pain, Sciatica, Muscle Strain & Stiffness and Degenerative Disc Diseases.
How is it done?
The patient is typically asked to lie face down on a comfortable treatment table.
Ayurvedic Therapist would make a compartment using ground urad flour. A dam-like structure is created around the lower back using a dough-like paste made from wheat flour. This dam forms a container that holds the medicated oil or decoction in place.
Lukewarm medicated oil (chosen according to the predominant dosha) would be filled in the compartment and allowed to remain in contact with the lower back.
The oil is retained in the compartment for a specific period of time. This allows the vigor of the herbs to reach the deep tissues thereby strengthening the back muscles and the spine
The oil will be gently removed, and the lower back will be lightly massaged after Kati Basti
