Spondylosis

In ayurveda cervical spondylosis is called as “griva sandhigata vata’.

Cervical spondylosis or cervical osteoarthritis is caused by degeneration of bones, discs –cartilage cushion between the neck bones and joints of the neck. This condition is usually found in middle aged people and elderly. It is wear and tear disease.

It is common disorder of the cervical spine. As we grow older , discs in the vertebrae gradually breakdown and become stiffer as a result of which body reacts and develops bony growths (osteophytes).

These osteophytes put pressure on the spinal nerve roots or spinal cords resulting in pain.
