Katishoola is a very common complaint, which is localized Vatavyadhi where Vata dosha affects Katisandhi.In modern it is nearly correlated with Lumbar spondylosis. Katishoola is a disease which is mainly caused by the vitiation of Vata Dosha. In Ayurveda Katishoola comes under Vatavyadhi. Management for this is Katibasti as mentioned in the Ayurvedic Texts.
