Sciatica

Sciatica is caused by the compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, leading to sharp pain, numbness, and tingling sensations that radiate from the lower back to the legs. Ayurveda attributes this condition to aggravated Vata dosha affecting the nerve pathways. The treatment focuses on calming Vata through therapies such as Kati Basti (warm medicated oil therapy on the lower back), Abhyanga (herbal oil massage), and Panchakarma therapy  Basti (medicated enema). Herbal formulations like Yogaraja Guggulu and Sahacaradi help reduce inflammation and strengthen the nerves. A customized diet, lifestyle modifications, and specific yoga postures complement the treatment for long-lasting relief and improved mobility
