About This Treatment
Overview: Kati Basti is one of the most effective Ayurvedic treatments for lower back ailments. The name is derived from "Kati" (Lower Back) and "Basti" (To hold/retain).
Process: A boundary or "dam" is created on the lower back using a specially prepared herbal dough (typically black gram flour). Warm, medicated Ayurvedic oils (such as Mahanarayan Taila) are then poured into this ring and kept at a specific temperature. This allows the oil to penetrate deeply into the muscle tissues and nerves.
Therapeutic Action: The deep heat and herbal properties of the oil nourish the spinal discs, lubricate the joints, and improve blood circulation to the lumbosacral region, providing long-lasting relief from inflammation and stiffness.
