Ayurveda for Sciatica and Disc Herniation — When to Seek Help

Sciatica and disc herniation cause radiating leg pain, numbness and reduced mobility. Ayurveda for sciatica offers complementary care when properly assessed — but severe neurological deficits require urgent conventional evaluation.

When Ayurveda may help

  • Chronic lumbar pain without progressive weakness
  • Post-surgical rehabilitation support
  • Muscle spasm and inflammatory flares
  • Patients seeking structured non-surgical management under physician supervision

Treatment components

Musculoskeletal assessment, herbal anti-inflammatory protocols, therapeutic yoga for spine stability, external therapies in Galle when in-clinic, Panchakarma when clinically indicated.

Red flags — seek emergency care

Sudden leg weakness, bladder/bowel changes, or saddle anaesthesia require immediate hospital assessment — not Ayurveda alone.
