Spondylitis is a type of arthritis caused by spinal wear and tear. It can impair the spines movement and affects the nerves and other functions. Spondylolysis affects 6-10% of the general population and 25-60% of athletes. The most prevalent form of spine dysfunction in the elderly is scoliosis. The Sthanika (External)basti therapy is a localized form of svedana procedure. Warm medicated oil is pooled over specific parts of body by a special arrangement for local pain relief. Svedana is a pain-relieving therapy in and of itself. It is proved to be effective in disease like, lumbar spondylitis, ankylosing. Spondylosis, sacroiliitis, disc prolapse (IVDP).
