Kati Vasti

Kati Vasti is a traditional Ayurvedic treatment for the lower back. 'Kati' refers to the lower back, while 'Vasti' means holding or keeping, so this treatment focuses on keeping warm herbal oil on the lower back. It is particularly suitable for relieving a variety of lower back problems including chronic pain, stiffness, muscle spasms and sciatica.

Indications for the Kati Vasti treatment:

Low back pain - chronic low back pain.
Sciatica - pain radiating down the leg caused by nerve inflammation.
Herniated discs and degenerative disc disease - damage to the joints and intervertebral discs.
Spondylitis - inflammatory diseases of the spine such as ankylosing spondylitis.
Muscle spasms and stiffness - muscle tension and restricted movement.
Posture problems - due to incorrect body posture.

Why is Kati Vasti effective?

This treatment is designed to restore flexibility to the lower back and prevent pain. Warm herbal oils penetrate deep into the tissues, moisturising the joints, nourishing the muscles and promoting relaxation. Kati Vasti is particularly useful for people who suffer from chronic back problems and want to improve their physical well-being.
