Sciatica, Gridhrasi in Ayurveda, is a VataRoga, characterized by sharp, shocking pain radiating from the hip to thigh, calf or the toes in one or both the legs. Dullness, instability, tingling sensation & pain along the path of the sciatic nerve are the results of compression, irritation & inflammation of the sciatic nerve.
The most common causes are Lumbar Herniated Disc, Lumbar Spinal Stenosis, Degenerative Disc Disease, Aging, Osteoporosis, Spondylosis, Pelvic Infections, Tumors, Diabetic Neuropathies, etc.
In the following & complex stages of sciatica, the gait of the affected person resembles that of an eagle’s walk & the inflamed nerve seems like eagle’s beak, hence the term gridhrasi.

These all add to the unbearable & excruciating pain called sciatica.

Ayurveda says that the body is made of three primary doshas or energies, known as the Vata, Kapha, and Pitta doshas. An imbalance in these doshas may lead to various medical conditions.
Sciatica is known as ‘Gridhrasi’ in Ayurveda and is considered to be a Vata-dominant disorder that affects the lower back, hips, and legs. The term ‘Gridhrasi’ is derived from the Sanskrit word ‘Gridhra’, which means eagle.
In the complex and later stages of sciatica, the gait of the affected individual starts resembling an eagle’s walk and the inflamed nerve appears like an eagle’s beak, hence the condition is known as ‘Gridhrasi’.
According to Ayurveda, an imbalance in the Vata dosha, which is responsible for body movements and nervous system functions, leads to the compression or irritation of the sciatic nerve, leading to radiating pain from the lower back to the legs.
In some individuals, sciatica may also develop due to an imbalance in the Kapha dosha, which is responsible for body lubrication and fluids, along with the Vata dosha.
Ayurvedic treatments focus on managing the root cause of the dosha imbalance through various treatment procedures, like detoxification, herbal remedies, dietary changes, lifestyle modifications, and other specialized natural procedures using a holistic treatment approach.
