Ayurvedic Back Pain Relief: Effective Treatments

Ruchika was a 34-year-old housewife who used to have back pain for many years, for which she went to doctors and took medicines and pain killers to cure her pain. Seeing all these days, her sister Amrita told her to use ayurvedic treatment for back pain because Amrita’s mother-in-law’s back pain also got cured with the help of ayurvedic medicine.

Amrita suggested Ruchika oil her back and eat warm food along eating warm food she told her to eliminate pungent spices from her food because they can have a very drying effect on the body, and dryness is another one of the main qualities of Vata dosha; it gets increased causing an increase in back pain. 

Ayurveda and Back Pain

Ayurveda is a magnificent healing technique from the Vedic Period that is now re-emerging after being suppressed for many years by the British administration in India.

The human body — and the universe around us — comprises three essential parts, each made up of a distinct mix of the five primary elements: ether, air, fire, water, and earth.

Pitta is composed of fire and water, while Kapha is composed of earth and water. The Vata dosha is made up of ether and air, and it is the dosha that is most often associated with lower back discomfort. Lower back discomfort is a frequent and widespread health problem but can also be cured with the best ayurvedic medicine for back pain.

Solutions to reduce back pain

The following ayurvedic home remedies for back pain have helped many people because they treat the primary causes of pain, which Ayurveda attributes to an excess of Vata dosha, a fundamental element of the body. The following remedies perform wonderfully in lowering pain, significantly lower back pain, by diminishing Vata dosha. They are as follows:

Spices with a savoury flavour should be avoided

Consuming particularly intense spices in your diets, such as green and red chillies and wasabi, can cause the body to become severely dehydrated. Since dryness is another cause of the Vata dosha’s key characteristics, it is exacerbated by drying substances, leading to constipation and lower back discomfort due to stool stasis.

Practice Padahastasana

Padahastasana is a yoga pose that should be practised. Padahastasana (standing forward fold posture) is an excellent yoga practise for lower back pain because it allows the Vata dosha to circulate freely throughout the body, preventing constipation and lower back discomfort caused by the restriction of the stool-carrying channels.

Warm meals should be consumed

Taking cold food and drinks produces a rise in Vata dosha, which results in pain, according to the principle of like increases like. Coldness causes constriction and congestion in the body. Still, the right amount of heat permits the body’s stool-carrying channels (called srotas) to stay open, allowing us to evacuate our meals as efficiently as possible. And discomfort is reduced when you have a healthy elimination system and ayurvedic home remedies for back pain.

Your body should be oiled

Tension, strain, exhaustion, and drowsiness all raise Vata dosha, and too much-stored Vata dosha leads to early ageing, as well as discomfort in many regions of the body, particularly the lower back, according to Ayurveda. The primary organ of the Vata dosha, the skin, can be comparable to a leather bag. If this leather bag becomes too dry, it may crack and perhaps disintegrate; but, if the bag is oiled. Before having a warm shower, massage your body with warm sesame oil to keep your skin healthy and robust, prevent ageing, and relieve lower back discomfort.

Breathe through your alternating nostrils

This Pranayama (breathing exercise), also known as Anuloma Viloma, is the most helpful breathing technique for regulating the Vata dosha. Lower back pain and other pain-related Vata dosha disorders, such as osteoarthritis or rheumatoid arthritis, and more are primarily benefited from it.

The cycle for practising alternating nostril breathing is as follows: Close your right nostril by lifting your right hand toward your nose. Slowly inhale via your left nostril; now press it using your fingers. Then, with your right nostril open, exhale through it. Deeply inhale via your right nostril, next close it. Exhale via the left nostril after opening it. Feel free to repeat this cycle as many as you like.

Bishop’s weed seed tea should be consumed

Bishop’s weed seeds (also known as Ajwain seeds in Hindi) are widely available in Indian supermarkets and health food stores. This Ayurvedic spice is excellent for pain and constipation, and it may be safely used by anybody who is not experiencing heat-related symptoms. You may always boil Ajwain seeds in water and drink this tea if you experience lower back discomfort (which is common during periods). It offers immediate pain relief.

Keep yourself warm

The coldness of the Vata dosha is one of its essential characteristics. This is why, Because Vata is chilly, and cold weather can raise Vata in the body, causing a rise in lower back pain.

When you’re sick, recall why you always need to be comfortably nestled away in your bed? The warming element, which also pertains to pain treatment, is an essential part of this image of comfort.

Try the following suggestions now, and you, too, will be able to wave Goodbye to years of unneeded lower back discomfort.
