Abstract

APPROACH OF AYURVEDA TO CERVICAL SPONDYLOSIS W.S.R TO GREEVASTAMBHA: A CLINICAL STUDY

Dr. Saurabh Purwar* and Dr. Kavita Sharma

ABSTRACT

The western lifestyle, characterized by convenience food, TV and PCs, is taking its toll on children as well as adults and is producing increased numbers of overweight, passive youngsters with lifestyle diseases. Bad food habits, wrong body posture are the main culprits for Cervical spondylosis like any other life style diseases (DM-2,HTN, Obesity). Cervical spondylosis, also known as cervical osteoarthritis or neck arthritis, is a common, age-related condition that affects the joints and discs in our neck. According to Ayurveda, cervical spondylosis can be correlated with Greeva Stambha, a disorder of vitiated Vata or vataja nanatmaja vikara. Vitiated vata gets situated in Greevagata Sandhi and produces Greeva Stambha or Cervical Spondylosis. As per Ayurveda Vata Shaamaka Chikitsa is done to treat cervical spondylosis. Snehana and Swedana are the two main treatment modalities for Vatavyadhis. Vakra and stabdha body parts can be namayita (bended softly) with the help of Snehana and Swedana. Thus helps in relieving the stiffness and spasms. Snehana helps in nourishing the dhatus and increasing the Agnibala thus helps in increaseing the strength of the body.

Keywords: cervical spondylosis, Greevastambha, Vaatavyadhi, Snehana, Sweadana.
