Cervical Spondylosis and Homeopathic Treatment:

Cervical Spondylosis and Homeopathic Treatment:

Neck pain is a common illness from which almost all of us suffer at least once in a lifetime. We often hear complains of neck pain from our colleagues, friends, relatives, etc. in our daily life. Neck pain has been known by a medical term “cervical spondylosis”. This mainly occurs due to the degeneration of joints in our neck. As we grow older the bones in our body starts degenerating and that’s why cervical spondylosis is common in people with over 60 years of age. Cervical spondylosis is basically a form of arthritis, but it rarely leads to disability.

Cervical spondylosis results more in women than in men. There is no specific cause of neck pain known, until now, but it occurs due to one or more disorders or diseases that exist in the structures of the neck. Though it’s hard to eliminate neck pain, homeopathy can work for you. Homeopathy has been a great way to cure cervical spondylosis as the treatment is dependent on amounts of degenerative change that took place in the bones and the disk. The recovery time depends on the extent to which your spinal cord has damaged. The homeopathic treatment is more effective in cases where the damage is mild.

What is Homeopathy?


What is Homeopathy?
Homeopathy is a system of medical therapy that uses very small doses of medicines, or remedies. These remedies are prepared from substances found in nature. 
 The homeopathic doctor chooses the proper remedy by following a special rule of nature called theLaw of Similars. This law states "like cures like," or that a medicine can cure a sick person if it can cause similar sickness in a healthy person. For instance, if you peel an onion, your eyes burn, itch and water. You might also have a runny nose and begin to sneeze. If you had similar symptoms during a cold or allergy attack, such as a runny nose, watery eyes and sneezing, a homeopathic micro-dose of the remedy Allium cepa (red onion) would help your body heal itself.

What are Homeopathic Remedies?

Any plant, mineral or animal substance can be used as a remedy. The original substance is diluted in liquid repeatedly, and vigorously shaken with each dilution. Unusual as it sounds, these very small amounts of remedies can act very strongly when used properly. Also, because the remedies are very diluted, they are extremely safe. The clinical experience of homeopathy shows that the micro-dose is effective:.

What to expect during a visit to a homeopathic practitioner?

You will be asked to describe all your problems in detail as well as a complete description of everything that characterizes you, especially your feelings, sensations, sensitivity, psyche, and all that concerns your organism in terms of energy, sleep, appetite, digestion, etc. This thorough and initial interview requires approximately half to one hour. The better the homeopath understands the patient and his or her problems, the better they can individualize to find the specific and most similar remedy for the patient's  condition.

Which diseases can be treated with homeopathy?

This may sound strange but in homeopathy we do not treat diseases, but treat the person who is sick. Whether a person has a chronic or an acute disease, all of their symptoms, whether physical, mental or emotional form a whole representing a state of imbalance very specific to this individual. The goal of the homeopath is to recognize through the unique expression of symptoms of a patient the pattern of disturbed energy and identify among the great number of remedies available the one most homeopathic, or most similar to, the patient's disease.
