Looking for Ayurvedic Treatment for Sciatica in Chennai? Agasti Ayurveda Hospital, is one of the leading Ayurvedic hospital offer Ayurvedic Doctors for Sciatica in Chennai. Sciatica pain which is commonly referred as low back pain is a very common condition that has affected people with their day-to-day activities. The annual incidence of sciatica ranges from 1% to 5% across the world. The sciatic nerve is the largest nerve in the body that gets affected by the disease.
Sciatica refers to the pain that is caused to the sciatic nerve when it gets compressed. This is associated with lower back pain which radiates through hip and buttocks down to the leg. Sciatica can affect one leg or in the worst case both the legs.
Although there is severe pain during the disease, sciatica can be cured with adequate rest and a proper regimen. The severity of the condition can even lead to leg weakness and bowel or bladder changes which require surgical intervention.
Symptoms of sciatica pain
Common sciatica symptoms include:
Sciatica usually affects only one side of the limb but in severe cases both the legs may show the symptoms. Sciatic pain extends from lower back through back of the thighs and down the leg. Depending upon where the sciatic is affected, the pain may extend to legs also.
Sciatic pain occurs when the sciatic nerve becomes pinched, due to herniated disk in the spine or due to bone spurs (extra growth of bone) on vertebrae. Spinal stenosis i.e. narrowing spine can also compress the spinal and sciatic nerves. In few cases, the nerve gets compressed due to presence of tumour. The most common clinical features are pain, inflammation and numbness in affected legs.
Herniated disks: The vertebras which contribute to the spine are separated each other by a piece of cartilage. This cartilage is filled with thick, clear material to ensure the flexible movements and cushioning which helps to move around. Herniated disks occurs when the first layer of the cartilage rips. The substance inside will compress the sciatic nerve which leads to low back pain and numbness in the lower limbs
Spinal stenosis: Spinal stenosis is characterized with abnormal narrowing of spinal canal. Due to this narrowing, the sciatic nerve puts pressure to the roots and causes pain. It is also called as lumbar spinal stenosis.
Spondylolisthesis: Spondylolisthesis is an associated condition of degenerative disk complaint. When one spinal bone or vertebra extends, these can pinch the nerves and cause sciatic pain.
Piriformis syndrome: When the piriformis involuntary muscle contracts or tightens it pinches the sciatic nerve and causes sciatica pain. The muscles when tightened can put pressure on sciatic nerve. This is a rare neuromuscular condition. Piriformis syndrome is commonly seen in conditions of fall, accident or on long period of sitting.
Ayurveda mentions sciatica as Gridhrasi which is a vata vyadhi caused due to aggravation of vata dosha. The diseases show symptoms like Ruk (pain), Toda (numbing pain) and Stambha (stiffness) in the Kati pradesha (lumbosacral region) and radiates distal to Pristha, Janu, Jangha till Paada (feet).
An Ayurvedic commentator Arundutta in his commentary defined clearly that due to vata dosha in the kandara i.e., tendon, severe pain is experienced at the time of raising the legs which restrict its free movement. A straight leg raising test is a common test which confirms the sciatica diagnosis.
Sciatic pain Ayurveda treatments include a set of systematic treatments. They are Ama pachana that helps to reduce the joint inflammations followed by Shodhana i.e. elimination of deep-seated toxins from the body and Brahmana i.e. rejuvenation to the damaged part or cartilages. Ayurvedic treatments for sciatica include Dhanymaladhara, Abhyanga sweda, Patra pinda potali sweda, Sarvangadhara, Kati vasti, Erandamoola niruha basti – Kshara vasti and Ksheera vasti. These external treatments along with internal medications help to reduce sciatic pain.

என் மகனுக்கு கடந்த 2 வருடங்களாக செரிமான கோளாறு இருந்து வந்தது. பல கேஸ்டோ மருத்துவரை அனுகியும் முழுமையாக சரியாக வில்லை. அதிகபடியான அலோபதி மருந்து உட்கொண்டதால் தூக்கமின்மை பிரச்சனையையாளும் அவதிபட்ட எங்களுக்கு நண்பர் ஒருவர் உதவியுடன் அகஸ்தி ஆயுர்வேத மருத்துவரை சந்தித்து ஆலோசனை பெற்றோம். 1 மாதம் தொடர்ந்து ஆயுர்வேத மருந்துகள் எடுத்த நிலையில். நல்ல முன்னேற்றம் காணப்படுகிறது. எளிமையான முறையில் மருத்துவர் ஷாமபிரசாத் அவர்கள் அல்சர் வியாதியை பற்றி விளக்கினார். அத்துடன் உணவு பட்டியல் ஒன்று தயார் செய்து தந்துள்ளார். தற்போது என் மகன் எந்தவித இடையூறு இன்றி உணவு உண்டு வருகிறான். இதை உங்களிடம் பகிர்வதிள் மகிழ்ச்சி அடைகிறேன். நன்றி
My son had myelitis before 1 year and his right hand and leg got paralyzed then he got cured. But due to that he got some minor problem of walking with his right shoulder down. We consulted many allopathic doctors but everybody said that he won't be cured. I found this hospital in Google based on reviews and was really glad I came here for the treatment. Now he got so better. Doctor Shyama prasad and therapist Chippy were really friendly and was confident that this was just a minor problem for my son. The staff here is also really friendly and they interact with the patient well. I will surely recommend other people about this hospital for spinal problems. and special thanks to cleaning staff Sasi kala
