Abstract

 Sandhigata Vata is a common Vatik disorder found in all races and can be correlated with cervical spondylosis is modern parlance. Structural as well as functional pathogenesis takes place at the level of C5-C6 of the cervical spine commonly. Agnikarma is an ideal treatment modality for the Asthi Sandhigata Vikara as per Sushruta. Till date only symptomatic treatments like analgesic - anti inflammatory drugs and spinal exercises etc. are available but none of these modalities are providing satisfactory result. Long term use of these drugs are also not free from adverse effects. This study was designed after considering all these facts.A total of 33 patients were registered and out of them 21 patients completed treatment course, in which 11patients were treated with Agnikarma (Study group) and 10 patients were treated with Trayodasanga Guggulu (control group). Finally, it was concluded that Agnikarma provided significant relief in pain, stiffness and restricted movement of the neck.
