Prishta Basti, a specialized Ayurvedic treatment, is used for conditions affecting the lower back and pelvic area. It is particularly effective for issues such as lower back pain, sciatica, and related musculoskeletal problems.
It helps in releasing muscle tightness in the spinal region and if done regularly can prove very efficacious in conditions like chronic backache, cervical and lumbar spondylosis.
Lower Back Pain (Lumbago): Prishta Basti is often used to alleviate chronic or acute lower back pain by addressing the underlying dosha imbalances that contribute to discomfort and stiffness.
Sciatica: If someone is experiencing sciatic nerve pain, which radiates from the lower back down the leg, Prishta Basti can help by reducing inflammation and promoting healing in the affected area.
Spinal Issues: Conditions like herniated discs or degenerative disc disease may benefit from this treatment, as it targets the lower back and the areas surrounding the spine.
Pelvic Disorders: It can also be useful for addressing issues related to the pelvic region, such as pelvic inflammatory disease or discomfort associated with menstruation.
Musculoskeletal Imbalances: Prishta Basti helps in balancing the doshas (Vata, Pitta, and Kapha) specifically in the lower back region, which can contribute to overall better musculoskeletal health.
