Kati Vasti Therapy

Ayurvedic Back Pain Relief

Sitting for long hours? Slouching? Experiencing pain in your back?

Kati Vasti or Kadee Vasti is a specialized therapy designed to address pain and discomfort in the lower back region. This is one of our top specializations at AYURnest Ayurvedic Panchakarma Centre. This ancient treatment involves using medicated oils to soothe and heal the lumbar area, offering relief from pain and promoting overall spinal health.

What is Kati Vasti?

Kati Vasti is a traditional Ayurvedic treatment that focuses on the lower back. The term "Kati" refers to the lower back, and "Vasti" means to hold or contain. In this therapy, a well is created on the lower back using a ring made of dough, which is then filled with warm medicated oil. The oil is retained in the area for a specific duration to deeply penetrate and heal tissues, providing therapeutic relief for conditions like lower back pain, sciatica, and spinal stiffness.

What Do You Experience During the Treatment?

The treatment begins with a gentle massage to relax the lower back muscles. A dough ring is placed on the affected area and secured to form a reservoir. Warm medicated oil is poured into this well and maintained at a comfortable temperature.

As the warm oil works its way into the tissues, you’ll experience a soothing sensation that relaxes muscles, reduces stiffness, and alleviates pain. The process is deeply calming, often leaving clients with a sense of warmth and lightness in the lower back.

Duration

A single session of Kati Vasti lasts 30 to 45 minutes. The duration of the treatment purely depends on the condition of the individual and the line of treatment of the Vaidya.
