Spondilytis, Sciatica, backpain - use of nadi vigyan

[Guest guest]

Nadi vigyan procedure for Cervical spondylitis, sciatica, severe

backpain:

 

The control of our whole body is through communication nervous

system. The system consists of brain stem, sciatica nerve and its

several branches reaching all organs. This nerve, about a quarter

inch thick, starts at brain stem and passes through spinal vertebrae.

Divides in two parts near coccyx (Kokilasthi in ayurveda) and reaches

upto toes of both feet.

 

When this nerve receives receives pressure from vertebrae (as a

result of mis-alignment, local swelling, inadequate shleshak Kapha

etc) the electrical signals face resistance, causing malfunction in

the organs controlled by branches radiating from that vertebra. Thus a

pressure between C2, C3 vertebra can cause speech defect such as

stammer. If Kapha accumulation in region between T6 to T9, it causes

pain which affects cardiac muscle, often misunderstood as angina

pectoris.

 

IN order that all organs of body perform well, spinal chord should

not have any mislignment/pressure on sciatica nerve. The chord

compresses due to our sitting posture and this can be relieved by a

simple yogasana, termed paschimottanasana. The action of this nerves

gets hampered due to falls, shocks to spine, heavy object lifting and

high heel shoes. This causes pain from lumber region right up to toe.

Unless there is permanent discernible mislignment X-rays do not

reveal anything, but nadi vigyan can help in such circumstances. Nadi

vigyan can be used even when misalignment exists. Support belt for

neck, waist is often recommended by modern science. Traction is also

suggested many a time, especially if knee pain also exists. A local

swelling is sometimes misunderstood as slip-disc and surgery is

suggested. The pain due to local problem in spine radiates to whole

leg. Swelling of nerve creates immobility for the patient. Before

accepting surgery recommendation, author suggests a simple home

treatment based on several nadi-vigyan pressure points located in the

back side of thighs, calf muscle and hips. These points get pressed

during Vajrasana also. For spondilytis, some points in neck region

often get pressure when Indian barbers twist customers neck at the

end of hair cut or shave. This requires considerable skill and

experience. Nadi vigyan, though not documented well in ancient texts,

it has traveled through generations.

 

Let patient sleep on a setee (diwan) six by two feet size, facing

downwards, with back upside (prone position). A soft 14 x 12 inches

pillow under the chest and hands folded under the chin makes comfort

for patient. Take three inches wide cloth straps (you can use old

sari, dupatta, dhoti or towel also). Tie them at

1. Between T5-T9 region (just where end of bra or blouse is

located)

2. Centre of spine, where waist measurement is taken (least

measurement of waist)

3. Lower lumber region

 

So that patient can not move much. Pressure should not be so high to

cause breathing difficulty.

 

(A) (For spondilytis mainly). Hold the patients head in both hands

and rotate up -down and left-right directions in circular arc,

without jerks and without pain to patient. Five rotation up - down

and five left-right. This twisting motion relieves nerve pressure

in cervical area. Patient can hear some sounds, as if sand or

salt is crushed between rollers. The toxin crystals get broken

and removed by appropriate elimination system (Lymph, kidney)

 

(B) Let patient rest his chin on folded hands. Lift his right leg and

slowly fold it so that heel touches right hip. Let heel press into

hip a little.. Repeat three times. Straighten right leg and repeat

with left leg pressing into left hip three times. Take now both legs

in two hands, together fold them so that heels touch respective hip.

Application of slow but heavy pressure for thirty seconds may cause

patient to cry out with pain. The pressure and time needs to be

adjusted here according to pain bearing capacity of the patient.

 

Release the straps and let patient get up slowly. The release of

sciatica nerve through misligned vertebrae gives significant relief.

 

Repeat procedure A and B after 3-4 days if needed. The procedure is

needed at most four to five times at an interrval of 4 days each.

 

In case no relief, approach surgeon. Problem is more serious.

 

If there is a previous surgery of vertebrae or knee cap, or cardiac

problem, procedure is not to be undertaken.

 

One point to be noted that often, hypertension is the by-product of the

misalignment, caused by constricted flow of Cerebro-spinal fluid

(Merujala) and pressure on pituitary gland. If above procedure

helps in reducing misalignment, hypertension will also get corrected.
