Lower back pain (Lumbar Spondylosis)

Everyone, at least once in his lifetime suffers from lower back pain. The pain may be due to some disease or injury to the muscles, bones, and/or nerves of the spine.

Pain in the organs within the abdomen and pelvis, may also be felt in the back like pain of the kidney stones are felt close to the L2-L4 region of the spine. Pelvic infections, ovarian disorders, Menstruation can also cause lower back pain.

Due to disc bulge/ herniation or prolapse the exiting nerve root gets pinched. This causes pain along the whole track of that nerve. Radiating pain to the leg is called Sciatica. It has 6 different types. Once the exact diagnosis of the type of Sciatica is done then, through medical yoga therapy sciatica can be treated anytime between one session to three months time. Surgeries are also saved in a number of cases at our centre.

Patient’s details: Radha Grover (name changed) Gender/Age: Female / 32 years

Patient joined Medical Yoga sessions for 7 days at a special camp. She was asked to attend the sessions for 1 hour every day and was given sequence of 2 asanas for home practice 10 mins each.

Physiotherapy sessions for a few weeks for lower back and sciatic pain but didn’t get significant relief.

Medical Yoga therapy: Then patient came to 7 days medical yoga pain relief workshop. After clinical check up & going through patient’s medical reports, medically modified asanas mentioned here were prescribed:

  • Vipreet karni 1 with one stool and 1 pillow
  • Ek pad supt Gomukh asana
  • Reverse Bhekasana with 1 yellow belt
  • Supta padangusth asana 1 with rope

Vipreet karni: To release the stiffness in the lumbar region muscles (quadrates lumboram) muscle and illiocostalist muscle). Also to restore the natural curve of the lumbar spine (lumbar lordosis).

Gomukh asana: To release the pressure on the sciatic nerve of the six deep lateral rotator muscles in the hip joint. Also improves the range of motion of the hip joint so that the forward bending movement in the day to day life is done from both the hip joint and lumbar region. This significantly reduced the pressure of the lumbar discs and eventually on the lumbar nerves during forward bend.

Supta padangusth asana with rope:
