Nowadays, back pain is a common problem. It may also occur in youngsters. There may be a variety of underlying causes of backache, one of which is sciatica pain.
The sciatic nerve is a nerve traveling from the buttocks into the legs. This disease is caused due to irritation to the sciatic nerve. It is a type of neuropathic pain that may occur due to injury, compression, or sciatic nerve dysfunction.
Sciatica and Ayurveda
Sciatica is termed GRIDHRASHI in Ayurveda. The aggravation of VATA humor causes all symptoms. Constipation and cold weather may be risk factor for worsening the sciatica pain, according to Ayurveda. Ayurvedic ancient texts have described an extensive treatment of Sciatica.
The main cause of this disease is the irritation of the lumbar-sacral spine's roots. Other causes include:
The following symptoms may be present :
Ayurveda stresses the correction of the main cause of sciatic nerve irritation. Ayurvedic medicines help correct the aggravated VATA.
As Sciatica is a VATA disease, so ayurvedic medicines also pacify the VATA humor in the body. To relieve pain and treat underlying causes, Ayurveda recommends certain herbs and therapies that may offer support.
The following herbs may be beneficial in the cure of this disease. These herbs can effectively relieve numbness, tingling sensation, throbbing pain, constipation, and backache. You would need to consult to discuss treatment options. The Following ayurvedic herbs have been used traditionally to treat Sciatica.
Shudh Kucha is also known as nux vomica. It can be an excellent remedy for Vata disorders. It may help with low blood pressure, arthritis, sciatic pain, abdominal pain, migraine, depression, headaches, constipation, upset stomach, rheumatoid arthritis, dementia, etc. In Sciatica, it can help reduce numbness, tingling sensation, and pain. It may work on nerves as a nervine tonic. It may also reduce irritation caused to the sciatic nerve.
Boswellia is a resin, also known as Indian Frankincense, used in ayurvedic and herbal medicines for chronic inflammatory diseases and pain disorders. It is commonly used in osteoarthritis, asthma, inflammatory bowel disease, rheumatoid arthritis, gout, and osteoarthritis. In Sciatica, it may help to lower the nerve's irritation and works as an analgesic.
It is also known as the Indian bdellium tree. It has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. It is antispasmodic, carminative, appetizer, anti-flatulence, muscle relaxant, and anti-Vata. It can help reduce inflammation and work as an analgesic against the disease.

Yashtimadhu contains glycyrrhizin alkaloids beneficial in gastritis, gas, ulcer, inflammatory diseases, arthritis, spinal disorders, and arthritic problems. In Sciatica, it can soothe the sciatic nerve and alleviates the irritation caused to it. It may also benefit disc desiccation or degenerative change of intervertebral discs.

Ayurveda stads for extensive and elaborate clinical examination to understand thenature of the disease
Highly recommend seeing Pooja for various womens health issues. Pooja offers long term alternative approaches to self managing one's health with the holistic ayurvedic system. Her manner and concern is sincere and she is very conscious of leaving you with the tools you need to take care of yourself beyond her consultations.
I was suffering from headaches for the past 5-6 years which lasted more than a day. Sometimes it was so severe that I had nausea and vomiting. Tried a lot of medications but they did not help. Then I thought of trying Ayurveda as my last remedy. 2 months with Gurnam Saini and I have no headaches. My sleep has also improved. I’m still continuing to improve my overall health as the medicine seems to work for me. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone who wants to improve their overall health and well being.
My experience with herbal Ayurveda was positive. I found a tremendous amount of healing with this therapy after suffering from bronchitis and arthritic pain for years. The herbal massage was the best thing I ever did. I stopped my medication, the bronchitis healed and my arthritis improved remarkably. I highly recommend it and I look forward to more treatments.
I saw Dr Saini in July 2019 for “acid reflux” after suffering of months. I tried different medicines but didn’t work. There was a time I started believing that there was no permanent cure to this disease. Dr Saini is an authentic Ayurvedic doctor. He can do miracles for you. I honestly believe he’s a blessing for the city of Melbourne otherwise it would have been very hard to physically see an Ayurvedic doctor like him. My heart burn got worst with the time & became just unbearable. I couldn’t eat anything or sleep at all. Finally, I found him via google and peoples reviews convinced me to give him a call. He’s an angel & listens everything. He gave me a three month’s plan which I completed happily. But unbelievably my acid reflux reduced 80% within three days & completely gone in five days & it never came back since then. I’m so happy & enjoying my life like I used to. God bless Dr Saini & God bless those who wrote reviews which convinced me to give him a call first time.
I would highly recommend this place. I suffered from bad sinutisis and hayfever since last 4 years . Doctor recommend me to do operation for sinutisis but thanks to Dr saini that I got overcome from this sinutisis without operation.i would highly recommend people who suffering like me please refer to DR Saini instead of going for other medications .
After struggling for years with energy levels, food intolerances and sleep issues with our daughter, we tried Dr Saini. The results for her have been outstanding. Her food intolerances (she was on a strict FODMAP diet) have all but disappeared. Her sleep is consistent and better. Her ability to regulate herself across an entire day (without falling into a heap) has improved her life quality 100 fold. His approach is thoughtful and considered. We always feel like he listens to all aspects of her health and adapts his methods to what she needs next. I would highly recommend working with Dr Saini to anyone considering it.
Dr Saini has been so supportive in working with me to refine my mind, body and spirit to once again be able to consume gluten. Once I was diagnosed as gluten-intolerant, I thought I would never eat gluten again. But by embracing the ways of Ayurveda, I am now eating gluten on a daily basis that is pain free and discomfort free. Joseph Ferguson
I have had a fantastic experience with Dr Saini at Pure Herbal clinic. The herbs I have taken as well as some dietary/lifestyle changes have brought me back into balance - my sleep has improved, my mental state has also improved I have more energy and am managing stress better. I would recommend going here for sure. Thanks Dr Saini! Kat
Since September 2018, I have been in and out of hospital with consistent bowel and rectal issues. Three weeks after my last surgery this year, I literally stumbled across Pure Herbal. Dr Saini, (Ayurvedic Doctor) has been an absolute God send. I have worked closely with him since March. I have been extremely commited to the daily herbal regime, detox and treatments provided at Pure Health. At 46, I have never felt better physically, mentally and spiritually. What were constant symptoms, are now a thing of the past. I will continue this cleansing journey and with Dr Saini's expertise, I know my health will continue to improve. 🙏
I am very happy with the treatment and thankful for Dr.Saini. I was suffering from psoriasis for past 7 years. I never had such an improvement with any medications before. Psoriasis in my face was completed cleared in first 3 months. And almost 50% improvement in other places of my body in last one month. Ayurveda has a better impact on mind , body and soul rather than harmful anti immune tablets which is used as a medication for the condition. I really appreciate Dr.Saini for the his compassion.
I cannot recommend highly enough. This has been my first experience with Ayurvedic medicine and the Panchakarma cleanse and I can finally say that after years of striving for better health and wellbeing, I finally understand what is going to work for me moving forward. Having experience a traumatic event and subsequent PTSD 5 years ago, my gut and my body became increasingly compromised. In this time I have been diagnosed with fibromyalgia, complex regional pain syndrome and various ailments of the gut. I came to see Dr Saini and Pooja at a time that I felt frustrated with my years of work to see some more obvious progress with my healing. Having completed the Panchakarma cleanse, I am feeling fully renewed. Awake. Settled. I no longer struggle to wake each morning and get through each day. My appetite feels steady and all cravings have completely ceased. I now have some tools under my belt to fall back on when I know my digestive system needs a break. This cleanse has been a complete game changer. Thankyou Dr Saini and Pooja for you incredible guidance and support. Liz
Meeting Dr, Saini has been a blessing here in Melbourne. I've always believed in holistic health and I was looking for a practitioner who could not only treat some deficiencies but bring my health up to speed. Dr, Saini is an esteemed Doctor with years of experience in holistic healing globally. I had been in poor health this year however through Pachkarma and Pure herbal Ayurveda Clinic's treatments, there has been a transformation in my overall health, energy and spirit. Highly recommended if you want to transform your health holistically and want to get out of the rut of medications.
