Overview

Chronic neck and back pain is often linked to Vata imbalance affecting the musculoskeletal and nervous systems, frequently worsened by long hours at a desk, poor posture, or old injuries. Ayurvedic treatment combines heat, herbal oils, and targeted massage to loosen tight tissue and reduce nerve compression.

Common Symptoms

  • Chronic stiffness in the neck or lower back
  • Sharp or radiating pain (sciatica-like symptoms)
  • Reduced flexibility when bending or turning
  • Muscle spasms after prolonged sitting
  • Pain that worsens in cold or damp weather

The Ayurvedic Perspective

Ayurveda attributes most chronic spinal pain to aggravated Vata settling in the muscles, joints, and nerves (Asthi and Majja Dhatu). Sedentary habits, poor posture, and irregular sleep are considered key contributing factors.
