Ayurveda management of Manya Stambha w.s.r. to Cervical Spondylosis - A Case Study
Background: In today’s fast-paced and stressful lifestyle, many people are experiencing various degenerative diseases. One such condition is Manyastambha, which is becoming increasingly common. Manyastambha refers to a condition where the neck becomes stiff, rigid, and painful, particularly in the cervical region, limiting movement. This condition is listed among the eighty Vata-related disorders and also under disorders affecting the upper limbs. It closely resembles cervical spondylosis in modern medicine, which is a degenerative condition of the cervical spine. The primary symptoms of both include stiffness and pain. If left untreated or severe, it can lead to pressure on the nerve roots, causing sensory or motor disturbances. The prevalence of cervical spondylosis is rising due to factors such as increased work-related stress, poor posture from sitting for long hours, excessive computer usage, long work hours, night shifts, prolonged television watching, sleeping on unsupportive mattresses and pillows, and neglecting overall physical, mental, and dietary health. Aim: Ayurveda management of Manya Stambha w.s.r. to Cervical Spondylosis - A Case Study. Methods: This study has been based on subjective parameter. Results: The Result will be based on subjective parameter. Conclusion: Through Greeva Basti, Patra Pinda Pottali Swedan, and Ayurvedic treatment management showed a remarkable response to the subjective parameter.
