Kati Vasti is a specialized Ayurvedic therapy focused on relieving lower back pain, enhancing spinal strength, and supporting the body’s structural balance. The term Kati refers to the lower back, and Vasti means to hold — describing the method of holding warm, medicated oil over the affected area using a carefully formed dough ring.
This deeply penetrating treatment works by delivering warmth and healing herbs directly to the muscles, nerves, and tissues of the lower spine. It is especially beneficial for individuals suffering from conditions such as sciatica, disc herniation, spondylosis, and chronic stiffness.

Lower back muscle spasms or tightness
Degenerative spine conditions
Chronic fatigue or weakness in the lumbar region
Before the Therapy
Before beginning your Kati Vasti session, a thorough Ayurvedic consultation is conducted to understand the root cause of discomfort and determine the best course of action. During this assessment:
Your doshic imbalance and pain history are reviewed
Any medical conditions, allergies, or medications are considered
A personalized herbal oil is selected based on your body type and concern
The treatment area is then prepared with a dough ring, and warm oil is gently poured into the space, allowing deep absorption over a specific duration.
After the Therapy
Following Kati Vasti, the oil is gently removed and a light massage may be offered. You’ll be guided on:
Resting the spine and avoiding strain post-therapy
Herbal or dietary support to aid healing
Gentle stretching or movement recommendations, if applicable
At Matritva Care, Kati Vasti is part of a holistic healing approach — often paired with traditional therapies, detox protocols, and lifestyle guidance for long-lasting results.
