Cervical Spondylosis (CS) is a chronic degenerative condition of cervical spine causing neck pain, suboccipital pain, vertigo, shoulder pain, numbness in upper limbs and reduced range of motion of neck. The prevalence of Cervical Spondylosis was 13% in the third decade and 5% in the fourth decade. It is the most common emerging problem in today's era with limited range of allopathic regime. The symptoms of Cervical Spondylosis coincide with Manyastambha in Ayurveda. The present case study aimed to focus on the evaluation of the effect of Valuka Sweda, Nasya with Karpasthyadi Taila for 4 days and Ksheera Bala Taila for next 3 days followed by Nirgundi Patra Pinda Sweda for next 7 days in Cervical Spondylosis and a significant relief was found in the symptoms.
