What is Kati Vasti?

About Kati Vasti

Lower back pain is one of the most common ailments in our modern, sedentary world. Whether it's from long hours at a desk or the wear and tear of an active life, chronic back pain can be debilitating. Kativasti is Ayurveda's specialized "oil retention" therapy designed to target the lumbar region with precision. Imagine the soothing warmth of medicated oil penetrating deep into your spine, melting away stiffness and pain. At Yara Wellness in Bali, our Kativasti treatment offers a natural, effective alternative to conventional pain management, helping you regain your mobility and comfort.

Kativasti ?

Kativasti is a specialized Ayurvedic treatment where warm medicated oil is retained within a dough dam placed over the lower back (lumbar) region. In Sanskrit, "Kati" refers to the lower back and "Vasti" means to hold or retain. This allows the healing properties of the oil to be absorbed deeply into the nerves, muscles, and vertebrae.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before your Kati Vasti session at Yara Wellness.

You will be provided with a disposable undergarment. The therapy is traditionally performed with minimal clothing to allow the herbal applications to reach all necessary areas of the body. Your privacy and comfort are always maintained with careful draping throughout the session.
A full Kati Vasti session at Yara Wellness generally lasts 60 minutes, which includes the specialized therapy followed by a restorative resting period or a warm herbal steam bath to maximize absorption.
We recommend arriving on a light stomach. Avoid heavy meals at least 2 hours before your session. A small snack is fine, but a full meal may cause discomfort as the body's digestive energy and healing energy work optimally when not in conflict.
We suggest waiting at least 30–60 minutes before showering to allow the medicinal herbs and oils to continue absorbing into the skin and tissues. When you do shower, use warm (not hot) water and mild soap to preserve as much of the therapeutic benefit as possible.
