Abstract

Cervical spondylosis is popularly referred to as cervical osteoarthritis. It is a degenerative disorder and this is often a condition that involves changes to the bones, discs and joints of the neck caused by the conventional wear-and-tear of aging. Cervical spondylosis normally happens in middle aged and elder individuals. But nowadays it's unremarkably seen in young age individuals i.e. after 20 years of age, this is because of faulty dietary intake, wrong lifestyle, bad posture and long time sitting habits. With age the discs of the cervical spine gradually break down, lose fluid and become stiffer. In this research study, a diagnosed case of cervical spondylosis has been associated for its naturopathic and yogic treatment. The chief complaints found were pain and stiffness over the neck for 2 years and pain over the neck radiating towards the left hand and back side of head, headache, and numbness in both the arms. Degenerative changes with osteophytes at C4-C5 vertebrae with nerve compression were reported in her X-ray & MRI report. Effect of hot spinal bath, Alternate hot and cold compress over neck, hot spinal spray, partial hot mud application over neck, massage with hot oil application, acupuncture, and Diet therapy along with yoga for a period of one month help in improving the situation of the patient and decrease the symptoms. Various parameters have been evaluated during and after the treatment catalog. There is a whole relief in the parameters like neck stiffness, pain in hands, neck pain and also the parameters like headache, vertigo and nausea has conjointly shown significant improvement.
