As exertion and stress is increasing day by day, diseases also increased in our daily routine. And most common is cervical spondylosis according to data and public interaction. Prolonged sitting work, work on computers and continuous household work led to it. It is a degenerative disease which affects the vertebrae of the spine. In Ayurvedic texts many diseases symptoms correlated with it like Manayasthamba, vishwachi etc. In the current paper we are discussing case details of a patient who came to our hospital for treatment. Patient complaint of pain in neck region, on/off stiffness, heaviness in occipital region with sometimes vertigo, on/off radiating pain to shoulder region with generalized weakness for 3-4 months. Treatment modalities include shamana drugs and panchkarma therapy for 1 month. Patient got symptomatic relief. Details of this will be discussed in full paper.
