Abstract
Gridhrasi (Sciatica) has been described as one of the Vata Vyadhi by Acharyas and is included under 80 types of Nanatmaja Vata Vyadhi described by Acharya Charaka. One of the most common symptoms of Gridhrasi is Ruka (low back pain of radiating type), which is very common in today’s era due to improper lifestyle and various other reasons i.e., due to trauma, other diseases, etc. Various formulations have been described by Acharyas for the management of Gridhrasi, and among them Raasna Guggulu is directly indicated for the treatment of Gridhrasi by many Acharyas. Raasna Guggulu is very effective in the treatment of Gridhrasi, as in Gridhrasi there occurs vitiation of Vata and Kapha Dosha, and both the drugs (present in Raasna Guggulu i.e., Raasna and Guggulu) are described as best by Acharyas for the pacification of vitiated Vata and Kapha Dosha respectively. This article aims at helping in understanding the therapeutic benefits of Raasna Guggulu in the management of Gridhrasi in detail, based on Rasa Panchaka (i.e., Rasa, Guna, Veerya, Vipaka, and Prabhava), Karma (i.e., Shothahara, Vedana Sthapana, etc.) and chemical constituents of its contents.
