The human cervical spine has vertebrae separated by an intervertebral disc that acts as a support between the two vertebrae. In cervical spondylosis, the discs between the vertebrae are degenerated due to wear and tear, dehydration, bony spurs, and other factors. It worsens with age and is more common in individuals over the age of 60 years. The degeneration of the disc affects the mobility of the neck and also increases pressure on the nerves. 
Some of the symptoms of cervical spondylosis are as follows: Ankylosing spondylitis (AS) is a chronic inflammatory disease that can cause the fusion of some vertebrae in the spine causing musculoskeletal pain, stiffness, and immobility.  You may see a change in posture among those with this condition. It can also affect the ribs causing breathing problems. Early signs of the disease include pain and stiffness in the lower back hips. You may also observe pain in the neck and fatigue. 

Causes of Spondylosis

Possible causes of Cervical Spondylosis are as follows:

• Age-related - Wear and tear caused by the aging process
• Bone spurs – In response to the degeneration of the disc the body tries to grow an additional amount of bone to support the spine. This extra bone or bone spurs can pinch the spine and nerves causing pain. 
• Discs getting dehydrated – The cushions between the vertebrae act as shock absorbers and support the body with sudden load of lifting or additional weight. As we age the spinal discs become dry reducing the elasticity and distance between the bones. This increases bone-to-bone contact which can be painful. 
• Herniated discs – The cushion between the vertebrae has a gel-like material. As we age, cracks appear on the exterior of the discs leading to protrusion of disc material between the vertebrae and bulging of discs. It can cause pain and numbness of the arm.  
• Ligament stiffness – Bones are connected to each other by ligaments. They can become stiff and make the neck less flexible. 
• Injury – A neck injury can also cause spondylosis.

Causes of ankylosing spondylitis: 

• The causes are unknown but some data suggest the involvement of genetic factors. Members with the HLA-B27 gene are at increased risk of this condition. 

Ayurveda’s view on Musculoskeletal and Neurological Disorders

Vata is the predominant function of the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system. The symptoms of cervical spondylosis are caused by vitiated Vata. Vata Vyadhi (Vata Disease) has two types of pathology, Ksaya of Dhatu which is the influence on the body tissues and Margavrodha which is caused by obstruction of Vata due to the malfunctioning of Pitta and Kapha. In Ksaya the Vata and Pitta dosha is vitiated causing the degeneration of vertebras and discs. Aggravated Vata and Ama (toxins) cause stiffness in the sacrum area. 
Ayurveda experts recommend the following methods to treat spondylosis which are focused on balancing the Vata:

• Asthi poshan chikitsa which is the provision of nutrition to the bone tissue 
• Detoxification and elimination of Ama
• Pacifying Vata with diet
• Lifestyle modifications
• Ayurvedic medicine to alleviate pain and inflammation
