Cervical spondylosis is one of the degenerative conditions of the cervical spine. It is commonly seen in old age, but nowadays it is nearly ubiquitous in young and middle-aged people. The symptoms consist of par-aesthesia and pain in the distribution of fifth to eighth cervical dermatomes, pain being felt most frequently over the shoulder, arm, scapular region, forearm and hands. In young subjects, bony outgrowth may not be evident, but loss of the cervical curvature caused by spasm of neck muscles can be taken as a suggestive sign. The presentations of signs and symptoms of both diseases have close resemblance, so Vishvachi can be correlated with Cervical Spondylosis. Improper sitting postures and continuous work create pressure and stress that cause injury to spine, which may play an important role in producing this condition. NasyaKar-ma is considered as prime line of treatment in Urdhwa Jjathrugata Vikaras and could be effective, eco-nomical as well as affordable treatment modality. Prasarini Taila is indicated in all Vata Vikaras especially in Vishvachi. Keeping these points in mind, a comparative clinical study of different schedules of Marsha Nasya with Prasarini Taila in the management of Cervical Spondylosis is taken.

Degenerative Disorder

Human life has become more stressful these days. Sedentary lifestyle, occupational factors are playing a large role in increased prevalence of the common degenerative disorder of Cervical Spine i.e. Cervical Spondylosis. In Ayurvedic view, it can be correlated with Manyastambha which is a Vataja Nanatmaka Vikara. Degeneration means Apatarpana in Ayurveda. It needs to be treated with Brimhana Therapy. And Urdhvajatrugata Vyadhis are best treated with Nasya according to Ayurveda. So, taking all these factors into consideration, Brimhana Nasya Karma with Ksheerabala Taila was tried to alleviate the signs and symptoms of patients having Cervical Spondylosis. Assessment was done with regard to pain in neck and shoulder, tingling and numbness in hands and headache alongwith various angles of rotation of neck. The data was collected before and after administration of Nasya karma. The 15 days trial was proved to be significantly efficacious in reducing signs and symptoms of cervical spondylosis.

The present scenario of lifestyle is prone to cause many lives deteriorating conditions. Sandhigatavata is one among the Vatavyadhi and the commonest articular disorder affecting the middle-aged, obese, and elderly population. The advancement in working pattern, lifestyle & age-factor, all together have become a prime cause for aggravation of Vata, which accelerates Dhatukshaya (depletion of tissues). Sandhigatavata can be correlated with osteoarthritis (OA) which is one such chronic, degenerative, inflammatory disease that has a great impact on the quality of the life of an individual. OA poses a huge hindrance in the day-to-day activities of the sufferer like walking, dressing, bathing etc. As per Ayurveda, it is caused due to localized accumulation of aggravated Vata in joints, which leads to Shula, Sotha, Vatapoornadritisparsha and functional disability of affected Sandhis. If not treated in time, the disease makes man disable. According to epidemiology the prevalence of osteoarthritis in India is 22-39%. Different treatment modalities like Snehana, Swedana, Lepa, Bandhana, Agni Karma and Raktamokshana are emphasized in Ayurveda to provide better relief from the pain and swelling and restore mobility; for the management of these symptoms, Swedana is the most convenient & best procedure. So, the present study was aimed to assess clinically the effect of Upanaha Swedas in the management of Janusandhigatavata. Objectives: To evaluate and compare the efficacy of Vachadi Upanaha Sweda and Koladi Upanaha Sweda in the management of Janusandhigatavata. Materials and Methods: It was a randomized comparative clinical study; total 40 patients were divided into 2 groups as 20 in each. In Group A, patients were treated with only Vachadi Upanaha Sweda and other group patients were treated with Koladi Upanaha Sweda. Results: Statistical analysis revealed that both the interventions wereeffective in reducing all the signs and symptoms of Janusandhigatavata, however in parameters Shotha, tenderness and walking distance, Koladi Upanaha Sweda showed better response than Vachadi Upanaha Sweda. Conclusion: There is a significant effect of Koladi Upanaha Sweda over Vachadi Upanaha Sweda in Janusandhigatavata both clinically and statistically. Keywords: Janusandhigatavata, knee osteoarthritis, Koladi Upanaha, Vachadi Upanaha, Swedana.

Greeva Hundanam is a condition in which vitiated Vata lodges in the neck region and leads to stiffness of the neck with signs and symptoms of vitiation of Vata. The word Greeva means neck. The word Hun-danam conveys two meanings. The first one is “Shiro Prabhrutinam Antah Pravesha”. It means inward intrusion of the head and its allied parts. It is possible due to implication with cervical parts. Structural de-formity is also a suggestive condition. The other meaning is “Greeva Stambha”, which denotes the re-striction of the movements of the neck. Cervical Spondylosis is the degenerative condition of the cervical spine with signs and symptoms like neck pain, numbness, muscle spasm, neck stiffness, restricted range of movements of neck etc. Signs and symptoms of Greeva Hundanam resembles with that of Cervical Spon-dylosis. So, both Clinical Conditions can be compared with each other. Tila Taila is having Vatahara prop-erty used in treating Vatavyadhi. Also, in the previous study it has been reported that Tila Taila used in Greeva Basti was beneficial in reducing the signs and symptoms of Greeva Hundanam. So, in this study an attempt was done to evaluate and compare the effect of Greeva Basti and its modified schedule in Greeva Hundanam with Tila Taila.

Sleep is a serious health ailment that affects millions of people. It is one of the most significant human behaviour occupying roughly one third of human life. Sleep occupies a greater portion of our life and is considered as one among the three Upastambhas of existence. Charaka has explained the management of Nidranasha (Insomnia) with both external and internal treatments. Presently people are not getting sufficient hours of sleep because of busy life schedules and overload, as a result of which, work hours have replaced time of sleep. Recent studies have shown that anxiety and stressful environment has created an imbalance in the physiological activity of the body leading to disturbed sleep and other anomalies. A Randomized comparative clinical study of 40 patients suffering with classical signs and symptoms of Anidra (Insomnia) of either sex divided into two groups viz. Group A - (Study group) - Treated with Pippali Moola (Root of Piper Longum) with Guda (Jaggery), Group B - (Placebo Group) - Acacia resin with a study duration of 14 days, including follow-ups.
