Brief Summary: The trial initiated with the aim and objective to assess the clinical efficacy of *Agnikarma* and *Raktamokshana*in the management of *Kati Sandhigata Vata* (Lumber spondylosis). In this study total of 32 patients were enrolled which were allocated into two non-comparative clinical parallel groups. 15 patients in Group A and 15 patients in Group B completed treatment as well follow-up, 2 patients were dropped out during treatment time.

In Group A 15 patients were managed with *Agnikarma* by *Panchdhatu Shalaka* at the most tender area in the lumbar region. 4 sittings were done with an interval of 7 days for the period of one month.

In Group B 15 patients were managed with *Raktamokshana* by modified *Shringayantra* (Chinese Cups) in the most tender in the lumbar region. 2 sittings were performed with an interval of 15 days.

The assessment was done on relief in sign and symptoms of *Kati Sandhigata Vata* like *Kati Shoola* (Lumber pain), *Kati Stambha* (Lumber stiffness), *Kati Suptata* (Lumber numbness), *Akunchana Prasarane Pravritti Savedana* (restricted lumber joint movements) weekly for 1 month. Follow-up was done up to 1 month for the period of one month after the treatment in both groups.

The study concluded that both the para-surgical modalities are highly effective in managing chiefcomplaints like *Agnikarma* is better in managing *Kati Shoola* (Lumberpain) and *Kati Stambha* (Lumber stiffness) while *Raktamokshana* isbetter in managing *Kati Suptata* (Lumber Numbness) and *AkunchanaPrasarane Pravritti Savedana* (Restricted lumber joint movement) but statically there is an insignificant difference among them i.e., the null hypothesis is accepted and the alternate hypothesis is rejected for this trial.
