	This treatment is very good for treating osteoarthritis of the hip, pain in sciatic nerve areas, inter vertebral disc prolapse, pain and numbness of the spine, lumbar spondylitis etc.

A rectangular reservoir, made of black gram dough, is built up on the back, over the lumbar- sacral area. Luke warm medicinal oil, which alleviates pain and strengthens the bones is slowly poured in to the reservoir and retained for about 30 to 45 minutes. The oil is recycled periodically to keep it warm. This treatment stimulates and nourishes nervous system of the spine.
