Neck pain, especially due to cervical spondylitis, can disrupt daily life, causing discomfort, stiffness, and limited mobility. In today's fast-paced digital world, prolonged screen time and poor posture are major contributors to chronic neck issues. While conventional treatments often rely on painkillers and physiotherapy, many are now turning to natural pain relief options that address the root cause — not just the symptoms.

One such holistic approach is the combination of Unani medicine and Hijama therapy, both time-tested healing methods that have gained popularity for treating musculoskeletal issues, especially in cities like Mumbai.

Understanding Cervical Spondylitis and Its Causes

Cervical spondylosis or cervical osteoarthritis is the term for age-related degeneration of the cervical discs.

⦁ Common symptoms include:
⦁ Persistent neck stiffness or pain
⦁ Headaches originating from the neck
⦁ Arms and shoulders that are numb or tingly
⦁ Dizziness or vertigo
⦁ Factors such as poor posture, prolonged working hours at desks, excessive mobile phone use, and a sedentary lifestyle can accelerate this degeneration.

Unani Medicine: A Natural Healing Approach

Unani medicine, rooted in ancient Greco-Arabic traditions, uses natural herbs, dietary practices, massage, and regimental therapies to restore balance in the body’s humors (Akhlat). When treating cervical spondylitis, Unani practitioners focus on reducing inflammation, improving blood circulation, and relaxing the muscles through natural formulations.

Some commonly used Unani herbs include:
⦁ Zanjabeel (Ginger) – Anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving
⦁ Withania somnifera (Asgandh) - helps to strengthen muscles and lessen stiffness. 
⦁ Haldi (Turmeric) – Supports joint health and mobility

Under the guidance of Dr. Shamim Alig, a renowned Unani practitioner in Mumbai, patients receive a personalized treatment plan tailored to their condition and lifestyle.

Hijama Therapy: Detoxify and Heal Naturally

Hijama therapy, or wet cupping, is another highly effective treatment for neck pain. It works by creating a vacuum on the skin using cups and gently drawing out stagnated blood, toxins, and inflammatory waste.

Benefits of Hijama for Cervical Spondylitis include:
⦁ Instant pain relief and reduced muscle tension
⦁ Improved blood circulation around the cervical spine
⦁ Natural detoxification of the body
⦁ Enhanced mobility and flexibility

Dr. Shamim Alig provides expert Hijama therapy sessions in Mumbai in a hygienic, safe, and controlled setting, guaranteeing efficacy.
