Effect of Selected Group of Asanas on the Patients with Cervical Vertigo

Abstract

One of the most prevalent issues among patients in their middle years is  vertigo. The existence of so-called cervical vertigo among the different  causes of dizziness is still debatable. Based on the research of cervical  vertigo was once believed to be caused by aberrant input from cervical  sympathetic nerves. Later studies discovered that sympathetic  stimulation has no effect on cerebral blood flow. Some studies made the  hypothesis that diseases of vertigo of cervical origin can be associated  to aberrant sensory input from the damaged joint receptors of upper  cervical areas. Additional research revealed that cervical intervertebral  disc disease appears to be the source of cervical vertigo. According to  recent studies, vertigo of cervical origin may be associated to the in  growth of many Ruffini corpuscles into degenerative cervical discs.  Generally, the symptoms of Vertigo are not visible at the initial time,  some time people consider it as epilepsy or brain related disease, first of  all, it is necessary to diagnose and treat it properly. Yoga is an alternative  therapy for any kind of cervical related problems, in which some special  Asanas like Bhujangasana, Dhanurasana, Makarasana,  Ardhamatsyendrasana, Akaranadhanurasana and Pranayama such as  NadiShodhan, Bhramari, and Udgeetha. Which is helpful in this type of  pain, it has been seen from many studies that yoga may work as a shield  for spinal card related problems.
