Back Pain
At Rudra Ayurvedic Clinic, we see back pain (Kati Shoola) not just as a mechanical issue but as a reflection of imbalances in Vata dosha, weak muscle tone, and improper posture or lifestyle habits.
In Ayurveda, Common causes for Backpain is includes,
- Vata aggravation due to dryness, aging, or cold weather.
- Prolonged sitting, heavy lifting, or poor posture.
- Injuries or degenerative changes like spondylosis or disc issues.
- Accumulation of Ama (toxins) leading to inflammation.
Ayurveda aims to restore balance by improving flexibility, strengthening muscles, and detoxifying tissues through herbal and therapeutic interventions

Recognise Signals Early
Ayurveda and modern medicine observe back pain differently, while modern approaches focus on structural issues, Ayurveda identifies the underlying doshic imbalance and tissue weakness.
Physical Symptoms (As per modern understanding):
- Pain or stiffness in the lower back
- Radiating pain or nerve compression
- Muscle spasms and inflammation
- Chronic dull pain
- Limited mobility and flexibility
Ayurvedic Observations (Rooted in dosha imbalance):
- Vata imbalance in Kati Pradesha (lower back)
- Vata aggravation affecting Majja Dhatu (nervous tissue)
- Ama buildup combined with aggravated Pitta
- Weakness of muscles and reduced Ojas
- Kapha accumulation causing stiffness
