Spondylosis signifies a set of changes in the spine marked by narrowing of the inter-vertebral spaces or formation of a new bone from the adjacent vertebra impinging on the nerve roots. The most common types of spondylosis are cervical spondylosis and lumbar spondylosis in which degenerative changes takes place respectively, in the neck and low-back regions of the spine. The Cervical Spondylosis is also called cervical osteoarthritis and is a disorder of cervical vertebrae. It is often the result of degenerative disk disease and it occurs when one vertebra slips slightly forward over another vertebra. The displaced bone may pinch the sciatic nerve where it leaves the spine. This is one of the most common ailments. It is a condition wherein the vertebral column is compressed and the flow of energy gets restricted in the nerves at the cervical (neck) region, which later penetrates in the lower areas of the body causing pain and discomfort.

The cervical (neck) spine is made up of small circular bones, seven cervical vertebrae. These vertebrae are arranged one over another, having a particular gap between each of them. In some conditions like ageing, injuries, any disease related to bones and in the condition of wear or growing of bones the distance or gap between these vertebrae becomes abnormal. Consequently the nerves passing, through that region get pressurized, giving rise to the symptoms of this disease. Working continuously in tense atmosphere also produces this condition. This irregularity can be diagnosed as cervical spondylosis, when the symptoms are caused without inflammation. Cervical Spondylosis is caused by numerous reasons. The factors, which cause these painful conditions, include wrong standing or sitting posture, sudden pulling of a heavy weight (especially after a long period of rest), injury to the spine as well as cancer.

The common symptoms of Cervical Spondylosis are linked with pain and stiffness in the affected region, with such symptoms in the upper limbs, inability to bend and move properly is also experienced. Other symptoms in this case include tingling sensation in the arms and fingers. There are added symptoms of cervical spondylosis too, that consists of pain and heaviness in the neck and stiffness while moving the neck.

Cervical Spondylosis can be treated by conventional medicine and also by using alternative medicine. The routine treatment for cervical spondylosis involves the wearing of closely fitted neck collars. The physiotherapy methods can also be used to treat cervical spondylosis. The process involves using of radiant heat, short-wave diathermy, massage, traction and exercise along with the use of a proper mattress and pillow. However, these do not always relieve the painful symptoms and are short-lived measures. Furthermore, nature care can cure cervical spondylosis too. Water Treatments is a process that is involved as a nature cure treatment. Magnetic Therapy also plays a vital role in curing cervical spondylosis.
