Therapeutic Oil Pooling: Greeva Vasti and Kati Vasti

Greeva Vasti and Kati Vasti are highly effective localized treatments, where warm, medicated oil is held in a dough ring placed specifically over the painful area of the neck (Greeva) or lower back (Kati). These Ayurvedic therapies are central to our pain management protocols at Ayush Nature Cure Hospital. Our approach focuses on deep, localized oleation to relieve muscle spasms, reduce inflammation, and improve structural stability. We aim to balance the Vata dosha, which is the primary energetic force responsible for chronic pain, stiffness, and degenerative conditions in the spine.

Our specialized approach begins with selecting a potent herbal oil suited to the patient’s condition, which is then maintained at a consistent therapeutic temperature. The oil’s sustained warmth allows it to penetrate deep into the muscles, ligaments, and vertebral discs, promoting healing and lubrication. Kati Vasti is essential for chronic conditions like Sciatica, Lumbar Spondylosis, and disc-related lower back pain. Greeva Vasti is highly effective for Cervical Spondylitis, stiff neck, and arm numbness caused by nerve compression. This gentle, non-invasive therapy ensures sustained relief and long-term spinal health, always administered under expert medical guidance.

Frequently Asked Questions

This section is vital for clearing up common patient questions.
What is the main benefit of pooling warm oil on the spine?

The primary benefit is deep, localized penetration. The sustained warmth and medicinal properties of the oil soften the tight muscles (releasing spasms), nourish the surrounding tissues, and create a hydrostatic pressure that helps lubricate the vertebral discs, reducing pain and inflammation.

Is this treatment only for severe pain, or can it be preventative?

While it is highly effective for chronic and severe pain, it is also an excellent preventative therapy. Individuals with desk jobs, poor posture, or those who frequently lift heavy objects can benefit from regular sessions to maintain spinal flexibility and prevent future degenerative issues.

How quickly can I expect to feel relief after a Vasti treatment?

Many patients report immediate, though temporary, relief after the first session, with noticeable long-term improvement often occurring after completing a prescribed course of 7 to 14 consecutive treatments. Consistency is key for lasting structural change.

Is Kati Vasti a safe treatment for a slipped disc?

Yes, it is considered safe and highly beneficial for disc-related issues like a prolapsed or slipped disc. By relaxing the surrounding musculature and nourishing the nerve roots, it helps to stabilize the area and reduce the pressure and pain associated with the condition.

Are Greeva and Kati Vasti part of a larger treatment plan?

Yes. While they can be administered alone, they are often integrated with other treatments like Abhyangam (full-body massage) and specialized Physiotherapy exercises to ensure that both the localized area and overall body balance are addressed for complete recovery.
