Abstract: Spasmodic dysmenorrhoea is defined as the cramping pain in the lower abdomen occurring just before or during menstruation, in the absence of other diseases. It is a common cause of absenteeism and reduced quality of life in women. The study was an attempt to evaluate the effect of nature cure techniques namely hot hip bath and abdominal mud pack in spasmodic dysmenorrhoea. It was a pre- and post-interventional study with sample size 24. Pain in dysmenorrhoea was assessed by visual analogue scale and the associated symptoms vomiting, back ache, head ache and fatigue were assessed by verbal descriptor scale for each symptom. patients were given hot hip bath and mud pack on lower abdomen for 7 consecutive days just prior to their periods. Duration of the study was 3 months and follow up was done after 1 month.
