How Effective Is Cervical Spondylosis Ayurveda Treatment for Neck Pain and Stiffness?

Question

I have been suffering from chronic neck pain, stiffness, and occasional dizziness, and my doctor diagnosed me with cervical spondylosis. While painkillers and physiotherapy help temporarily, I want to explore a natural and long-term solution using cervical spondylosis Ayurveda treatment.

Some of the most recommended Ayurvedic treatments for cervical spondylosis include Greeva Basti (warm oil therapy for the neck), Abhyanga (medicated oil massage), and herbal medicines like Rasna Guggulu and Maharasnadi Kashayam. But how effective are these treatments compared to conventional pain management methods?

Another thing I’m wondering about is whether cervical spondylosis Ayurveda treatment works best when combined with specific yoga postures, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle changes. Has anyone successfully managed cervical spondylosis using Ayurveda? If so, what treatments provided the best relief, and how long did it take to see improvement?

Would love to hear from people who have used Ayurvedic treatment for cervical spondylosis and whether it provided lasting benefits.

Ayurvedic treatments for cervical spondylosis focus on balancing the doshas and alleviating pain through a holistic approach. Greeva Basti, Abhyanga, and herbal formulations like Rasna Guggulu and Maharasnadi Kashayam are highly effective in reducing inflammation, improving circulation, and relieving stiffness. These treatments are often more sustainable than conventional painkillers, as they address the root cause of the condition and promote long-term healing. Combining these therapies with specific yoga postures, dietary adjustments, and lifestyle changes can significantly enhance the results. Practices like gentle neck stretches, avoiding aggravating positions, and maintaining a balanced diet that reduces inflammation can contribute to faster recovery and better overall management. Improvement time varies, but many people report noticeable relief after 4-6 weeks of consistent treatment and lifestyle changes.
