Ayurveda Specialist 's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for posting to HCM,
Ayurvedic physical treatments like abhyanga (oil massage) and basti (meditated enema) are very much helpful in backache.
Kati Basti also helpful in backache.
Usually it is applied to the lumbar-sacral area of the spine, which is a major site of vata.
Regards
