Cervical spondylosis
Advanced cervical spine rehabilitation combining manual suboccipital decompression, facet joint mobilizations, deep neck flexor strengthening, and ergonomic postural correction.
Clinical Approach to Cervical spondylosis
Manual suboccipital decompression and gentle cervical spine traction for cervical spondylosis at Zen Physio Nashik.
Common Symptoms
- Chronic neck stiffness and grinding sensations (crepitus) when turning the head.
- Radiating numbness, tingling, or weakness into the shoulders, arms, or fingers (cervical radiculopathy).
- Persistent tension headaches originating at the base of the skull (cervicogenic headaches).
- Loss of cervical extension and side-bending range making driving and desk work painful.
Biomechanical Causes
Age-related degenerative wear, disc space narrowing, and bone spur formation in the cervical vertebrae (C4–C7) lead to facet joint arthrosis and nerve root compression. Chronic forward-head posture accelerates this degeneration. Our protocol integrates computerized Spinal Decompression & Traction, Class IV Laser Therapy, and Manual Joint Mobilisations to decompress pinched nerve roots and restore fluid cervical mechanics.
What to Expect:
A detailed neurological and cervical segmental motion examination. Treatment combines gentle manual axial distraction, suboccipital trigger point release, neural flossing, and progressive chin-tuck isometric stabilization drills with pressure biofeedback.
Treatment Benefits & Objectives:
- Widens intervertebral neural exits, relieving pinched nerve roots and radiating arm numbness.
- Significantly reduces neck muscle spasms and relieves cervicogenic headaches.
- Restores smooth, pain-free rotational head movement for driving and working.
- Rebuilds deep postural neck flexors to support the weight of the head effortlessly.
Recovery Path Milestones
Pain Relief & Axial Decompression
Gentle manual cervical traction and suboccipital myofascial release to offload compressed nerve roots.
Facet Joint Mobilization & Neural Flossing
Maitland Grade II–III cervical glides and median/radial nerve flossing to eliminate radiating tingling.
Deep Cervical Flexor Retraining
Stabilizer pressure biofeedback training for longus colli and scapular posture muscles.
Workstation Ergonomics & Neck Hygiene
Custom ergonomic screen-height adjustment and daily home postural stretching routines.
