Abstract

Manyastambha (Cervical Spondylosis) a Vatavyadhi described in Ayurveda is characterized by Manya Graha (Stiffness) and Shoola (Pain), significantly impairing quality of life. It arises from vitiated Vata or Vata-Kapha Dosha due to lifestyle, dietary, and psychological factors. This review consolidates classical Ayurvedic concepts, etiopathogenesis, clinical features, and management approaches. Ayurvedic management emphasizes Nidana Parivarjana, Shamana, Panchakarma/Shodhana, and Rasayana therapies, offering a holistic framework for addressing root causes and preventing recurrence. Integrating these principles can provide sustainable, patient-centered solutions for managing Manyastambha.
