Kadivasti is a specialized local treatment to alleviate lower back pain. Poor posture, prolapsed invertebral disk or strained ligaments and muscles can also be the cause of sudden or gradual onset of low back pain, as a result of aggravated Vaadha. Some times, low backache may be associated with sciatica, a typical condition characterized with pain radiating from the lower back to the rear of either one side of leg or both legs.
Kadivasti can also bring relief to spondylosis, a degenerative disorder in which the vertebral bone becomes soft and loses shape. The main causes of this kind of backache can be attributed to one or more of the following reasons: muscular strain arising due to bad posture, incorrect nutrition from dietetic errors, use of high heels, lifting weights wrongly or due to prolonged anxiety.
