Benefits Of Kativasti

Immerse yourself in the timeless tradition of Kati Vasti, a revered Ayurvedic therapy designed to alleviate lower back ailments and promote holistic well-being. Derived from 'Kati' meaning 'waist' and 'Vasti' meaning 'container', this therapeutic practice involves the retention of warm herbal oil over the lumbar region, encased within a boundary of black gram paste.

​

Kati Vasti, a cornerstone of Ayurveda for centuries, can be administered by a trained therapist or practiced as self-care, ensuring personalized benefits tailored to your specific needs. The selection of oils is crucial, considering individual constitution and seasonal influences. While sesame oil provides warmth and nourishment, coconut oil offers a cooling effect, ideal for varying climates. 

​

The treatment begins with gentle exfoliation to prepare the skin, followed by the application of warm oil and the containment within the paste boundary. Through targeted massage techniques, the oil penetrates deeply, alleviating pain, improving flexibility, and promoting circulation in the lower back region.

 

The benefits of Kati Vasti are manifold, including relief from lower back pain, strengthening of muscles and ligaments, improved blood circulation, and enhanced mobility. 

​
