Cervical Spondylosis

Cervical Spondylosis, an age-related condition affecting the neck's bones and discs, leads to pain, stiffness, and nerve-related symptoms. In Ayurveda, it is associated with aggravated Vata dosha and is treated holistically to restore balance. Panchakarma and therapies like Greeva Basti (medicated oil retention on the neck), Abhyanga (herbal oil massage), and Pizhichil (oil bath therapy) are commonly used to reduce stiffness and inflammation. Herbal formulations such as Rasnasaptakam Kashayam and Yogaraja Guggulu help relieve pain and nourish the spine. Dietary modifications, yoga, and posture correction are also integrated to strengthen the neck muscles, improve flexibility, and prevent recurrence.
