What is Cervical Spondylosis?
Cervical Spondylosis, also known as age-related wear and tear of the neck spine, is a common condition caused by degeneration of the bones and discs in the cervical spine. It may lead to chronic neck pain, stiffness, headaches, and even nerve compression symptoms like tingling or weakness in the arms.
At Physio Absolute, we specialize in non-surgical management of Cervical Spondylosis through advanced physiotherapy techniques and personalized care.
Symptoms of Cervical Spondylosis
- Persistent neck pain and stiffness
- Headaches (often starting from the back of the head)
- Shoulder and arm pain or weakness
- Tingling or numbness in hands or fingers
- Reduced range of neck motion
- Dizziness or imbalance in some cases
Causes & Risk Factors
- Natural aging process
- Poor posture (especially due to long hours at computers or phones)

Faq
Physiotherapy can't reverse degeneration but can significantly reduce pain, improve function, and slow progression.
Most patients feel relief within 6–10 sessions, depending on severity and lifestyle factors.
Cervical spondylosis is a chronic condition, but with proper management, you can lead a normal, pain-free life.
