SHADANGA AYURVEDIC WELLNESS CENTRE ( THEKKADY )
According to Ayurveda, Sciatica is known as Gridhrasi
Ancient wisdom meets modern healing
Sciatica is referred to as Gridhrasi by Ayurveda. The term is derived from the name of the eagle, which is the name used as Gridhra. The reason behind this is that the gait of an individual with sciatica resembles the gait of an eagle. Gridhrasi is prevalent in Ayurveda, and its preponderance occurs when Vata dosha is not balanced. Occasionally, the situation may also be aggravated by Kapha dosha.
This is the root cause of the way we do things at Shadanga. We not only alleviate the pain. We aim at rectifying the problem internally.

The Shadanga Ayurvedic Therapies for Sciatica
Discover our comprehensive Ayurvedic approach to treating sciatica naturally
1
Snehana, natural Ayurvedic Therapy
We start with a special Abhyanga, a medicated oil massage. This massage balances Vata dosha and relaxes locked muscles. The oil enhances blood circulation, hence lowering the rigidity of the lower back and the legs.
Also, in some instances, we give Snehapana where oil is taken orally with the guidance of an expert. This feeds the nerves inward, and healing is quicker.
Studies reveal that oil therapy helps in alleviating sciatica in four weeks and up to 60 per cent.
2
Swedana- Steam Therapy
We follow the oil massage with a steam treatment to eliminate toxins and open body pores. It is referred to as Swedana.
In Shadanga, we apply various forms of steam treatment, subject to the nature of your body. Such are Nadi Swedana (steam using a tube) and Pinda Swedana (massage using herbal bags). These reduce muscle tightness, stiffness and pain.
Swedana, accompanied by massage, has demonstrated a maximum of 70 per cent pain improvement.

Vasti- Medicated Enema Therapy
One of the most outstanding Ayurvedic solutions to sciatica is Vasti. And here we apply medicated oils, or the juices of herbs, rectally administered. This therapy attacks the colon, the home of Vata dosha, quite directly.
Vasti eliminates toxins, calms down pelvic muscles and cuts down swelling. Research indicates that it enhances movement and minimises the painkiller intake among sciatica patients.
4
Kati Vasti- Oil Retention
In Kati Vasti, a ring containing a warm herbal oil is applied to the lower back. The heat and the herbs lessen deep inflammation and loosen the sciatic nerve.
It is a quick-acting pain relief treatment, enhances sleeping, and the nerve pressure. It is beneficial when the person has chronic back problems.
