My lower back operated in 1991,still my back pain, now recently I came to know I am suffering from cervical spondylitis. What to do?

There is a lot of scope in going the natural way and you can get the best of your health by dealing with spondylosis. Let us start with our body and know how it can help us come out from the disease in a better way.

EXERCISE

• Daily physical activity is crucial for people with this disease and can reduce pain also improve mobility and posture and help you maintain your flexibility; exercising can help you achieve a healthy weight.

• Practicing good posture can help prevent spinal fusion in a stooped or deformed position. Not everyone will have a fusion in the spine, but practicing good posture can help keep your spine in a place that looks and feels better. Posture exercises should be practiced daily to have the best impact on your spine’s symptoms.

• Massage can help you achieve that perfect mobility despite your diseases. As it can help you improve your body level and reach a particular watermark of fitness despite the illness.

DIET

• Avoid alcohol.
• Include calcium-rich food and increase vitamin D intake to support bone health.
• Practice a diet that is rich in fruits, raw vegetables, and whole grains.
• Limit fats, animal products, processed or mixed foods, and try to drink eight to 10 glasses of water each day.

A diet that is rich in omega-3, fatty acids may decrease the disease activity in people with ankylosing spondylitis. The Arthritis Foundation researchers have reported that diets high in alfalfa, zinc, or copper salts and maintain a healthy weight.

MENTAL: As a person, in the disease, you are bound to get affected with negative thoughts which are making you feel weak inside. So it is time you do these three things.

• Practice mindful meditation.
• Deal with your stress.
• Allow positivity to be part of your life.

Thank you

Dear health seeker,

It is not known why you were operated upon. Any surgery doesn't remove the cause of the disease. By surgical intervention, only the fruits of unhygienic living are removed and not the causes. After a lapse of time, the suppressed diseases come in patent form i.e.again reappear in more virulent forms  This time it has manifested itself in cervical spondylitis. 

Now this time you are in the safe hands of mother nature. In pure nature cure, we strive to normalize all the functions of the body by living in accordance with the eternal laws governing our organism. You will have to employ the age-old tenets of natural laws. The human body is quite complex and it requires a deep understanding of the mechanism. Right now a case study is forwarded:-

EXCESSIVE CALCIFICATION OF BONES

The human body is unique in itself, sometimes [due to misuse or abuse] the digestive mechanism loses its power to absorb calcium. Failure to absorb calcium results in various ailments like caries, cavities of teeth, rickets, pulmonary Tuberculosis, diseases of spine and osteoporosis etc. By proper nutrition and correcting the mistake committed in the past, calcium absorption can be improved.

But strangely enough [for reasons yet unknown] human organism starts absorbing calcium more than what it needs. This excessive calcification results in it being deposited in various parts of bones. One of the most vulnerable parts is the Lumber bones of the spine. Calcium starts depositing in between the bones resulting even in actual fusion. There have been cases when all the five lumber bones have joined becoming one single rigid unit. In such cases, the person concerned will neither be able to sit or lie on back. Pain will be severe. Orthodox remedy consists of surgical operation and scrapping of the false joints and make them free. 

As is with all operations, the operation is very dangerous and may give the sufferer only temporary relief because there is no guarantee that calcification again will not take place in future. Because the root cause is not touched upon and problem solved only temporarily.

The sensible way would be to prevent the organism from absorbing any excess calcium. This can be done only by radically resorting to a diet reform. Since the cause is not known why calcification takes place it won't be also necessary to go deep into it. We know [SCIENTIST DO ADMIT] very little about the actual working of the living organism. The noble Prize Winner, Dr, Alexis Carrel's famous book. ''Man the Unknown '' is full of such flagrant admissions of our limitation in the knowledge of the living body.

Usually, the derailment of nutrition is the chief cause of ailments.

Mineral salts and vitamins in nutrition are later [50-60 YRS BACK] are additions in the twentieth century. Apart from the five food elements which constitute our body, there must be a number of unknown subtle factors which can not be detected in chemist's test tube and perhaps may remain undetected forever. Here I would like to quote one instance, where seawater was analysed in the lab and then were again mixed in the same proportion and ratio, and when fishes were kept in this water none of the fish survived, thereby putting a question mark, perhaps some subtle element present in the seawater was missing. At least two things Freshness and Liveliness IN FOOD CAN NOT BE EXTRACTED IN A BOTTLE. These are the qualities which can only be felt and experienced by a living organism.

1. A case of false joint cured by Nature Cure in quick little time - She was just 21 years old. For one and a half yrs. she was having continuous pain in the lumbar region of her back. She consulted an orthopaedic Dr., an X-ray revealed a false joint being formed between the fifth lumbar and sacrum. An immediate operation was advised as the remedy But luckily her family has experienced the blessings of Mother Nature and inquired if nature cure could be of help or not. The nature cure treatment was to fast for a day and live on a fruit diet for fifteen days. Vital economy was achieved by asking her to take only one kind of fruit at a time [it is impossible to overeat on mono-diet]. Different kind of fruit at different meals was suggested along with 100 grams of coconut. Daily non-violent enema, sunbath and abdominal wet packs (once a day) were an additional part of the treatment. To relieve the pain, she was advised to lie down on a thick towel from neck to rectum 2 to 3 times daily The pain became intermittent in five days time and disappeared in 15 days. She was very happy. She was given a program for 2 months to follow. She was saved from the surgeon's knife.

NOTE - Similar treatment can be followed by patients suffering from similar diseases involving the spine, slipped disc, spondylitis etc. which has assumed an alarming position, young ones aged 30, 40 yrs are being put on lumber-sacral belt. Wearing this belt will further weaken the muscles and bones involved. All diseases can be set aright if one were to follow this Divine Science.

Read this article https://www.wellcure.com/body-wisdom/6/can-you-make-changes-to-relieve-your-cervical-spondylitis

My mom had a similar issue which she absolutely reversed via lifestyle and exercises. She got it when she was quite stressed and hardpressed for time as a teacher and long-standing hrs and hand usage writing on boards. So good news is this can heal brilliantly. 

Lifestyle changes combined with the right food and exercises only work. People have also healed from slip discs.

Please remember that your surgery may have made those bones weak too. Lifestyle issues might do a lot more damage than accidents. To balance the acidic body environment, blood can choose to target that area to leach calcium. 

With animal products like dairy meat eggs fish in your meals, acidity in the body increases and the body will suck all the alkaline enzymes to maintain homeostasis.  

If high acidic foods (not coming under category of fruits veg veggies greens majorly) are ingested, their Ph is less than normal, the stomach does not need to make it acidic to process. The pancreas won’t produce the alkaline buffers to the blood to neutralise the acidity raised by the stomach. So this acidic food in its state reaches the next few levels like the duodenum which are not geared for this ph level and bile from the liver and gallbladder is called to rescue this balance. As this bile continues to be overproduced, the liver becomes tired. If liver and gallbladder are not in a good working condition, enough Bile is not made available in the duodenum, and this is how acidic food reaches the intestines. As liver weakens, the body cleaning is also compromised and blood continues to carry acidic toxins that the liver could not manage and have reached the intestines where nutrients get absorbed. If acidity in the blood goes up, the blood first uses the alkaline buffers present in its blood plasma to bring the blood closer to an alkaline pH. Unfortunately because of continuous supply of acidic foods to the body, the level of alkaline buffers is often very low. If the blood pH value falls below this range, then all the bodily fluids such as urine, lymphatic fluid, semen, Cerebrospinal fluids, saliva everything starts becoming acidic. This disrupts all the cellular function in the body and disturbs the balance. To prevent such a state of decline, the blood starts reducing its acidity by neutralising it with one of the most alkaline substances in the body, that is calcium from the bones. So blood starts dissolving the calcium from the bones in its self to reach an ideal pH level. This is also called leaching of calcium. Blood is a supplier and also a retriever. It will choose parts of the bone where it can leach very quickly such as the ends of the bones. As it continues to do so, that part of the joint weakens and produces pain and inflammation. There will also be severe obstruction of blood flow, the viscosity of blood will be thicker. All these factors lead to the accumulation of toxins across the body.

Know about acid-alkaline balance

https://www.wellcure.com/body-wisdom/1/do-you-know-about-the-body-s-acid-alkaline-balance

Follow - 

• High raw foods - Start with juices till 12, fruits greens for lunch, veggies post that for 10-15 days. Then add cooked gluten-free and oil-free for dinner.
• Respecting the circadian rhythm https://www.wellcure.com/body-wisdom/15/circadian-rhythm-of-the-body
• Natural Hydration to ensure the body has enough to maintain homeostasis - 2-3 lts
• Enough exercise like yoga as possible. 
• Breathing - Pranayamas possible 
• Mental poise - mental peace and positive thinking 
• Resting well - sleeping in time and following circadian rhythm 
• Experience natural elements - exposure to sun daily
• Not medicating the body to suppress any eliminations - are chemicals used to suppress natural elimination from the body.
• Not overloading the body with toxic foods the body can’t recognise - things unnatural that we can’t chew and digest in its raw state. Man-made fake foods using Dairy, eggs, meat, fish, sugar, wheat, maida, refined oil, white rice, salty store-bought foods, fried foods etc 
• Freeing the body off digestion every few days - fasting 
• Spending time Connecting with oneself in the form of meditation 
• Ensure that your bowel movements are regular
• Apply a cold wet towel and rest in the area of pain for 30 min 

Once you feel  better, following exercises must be done daily 6-7 times 

1) Stand with feet apart but comfortably. You can sit if you cannot stand. Put pressure on the forehead with the palms backwards while the head is trying to lean forward. Similarly, head leaning backwards while palms at the back of the head pushing forward. 

2) Relax and do some warm-ups with neck exercises like bending on all sides 12 counts.

3) Shoulder rotations CW and ACW. 

4) Apply cooling wet pack and relax.

Smitha Hemadri (Educator of natural healing practices)

Cervical spondylitis which causes neck pain and stiffness is affecting many people these days due to increased usage of computers and phones. The pain is just a signal for us to take care. Paying attention to posture, eating easy to digest foods, exposure to sunshine, proper exercises to stretch the muscles of the neck and back and most importantly, rest will help heal this condition.

What is cervical Spondylitis?

It’s a degenerative disease of cervical region of the spine. The main causes are faulty posture, poor dietary habits, psychological strain leading to muscle spasm, lack of exercise & injury.

What is the body trying to tell you?

When there is damage, the body wants to repair & it indicates this damage through pain. The pain felt in cervical spondylitis indicates 2 things:

1. degeneration in the cervical region is faster than regeneration
2. the body needs help with repair.

What can you do to support your body ‘naturally’?

Follow an integrated approach & focus on 4 things: exercise, rest, food & sunlight

1. Exercise: When in acute pain, please consult a qualified physiotherapist or accupressurist. Once the acute pain has subsided:
   1. Do shoulder & neck rotation & stretching exercises regularly.
   2. Many people have found relief from cervical pain through regular practice of yoga asanas such as matsyasana (fish pose), bhujangasana (cobra pose) & ardha naukasana (half boat pose).
       
2. Rest
   1. 2-3 times a day, drop everything you are doing...just sit with your eyes closed, focus on deep breathing & do a few stretching exercises.
   2. If your work is laptop based, try to take a break after every 1 hour of intensive work.
   3. Make no phone – no laptop time zones, say 8 pm - 8 am or no phone – no laptop days, say Sunday !!
   4. Ensure you get good amount of deep sleep every night.
   5. Be positive - Don't take mental / emotional stress, work on keeping a positive attitud
   6. Oil massage – Gently massage the back of your neck & shoulders with coconut oil. This will create better blood flow in the area & support pain management.
       
3. Food:
   1. Increase intake of raw foods as they are the easiest for the body to digest. Only when body is free from the work of ‘digestion’ will it be able to focus on getting your cervical area back to normalcy.
   2. Eat a generous serving of fruits in morning & evening. Eat a generous serving of raw vegetable salad with every cooked meal.
   3. Reduce intake of refined & processed foods, including white sugar, refined salt, refined oil, packaged foods, etc.
       
4. Sunlight – Sun is a natural unadulterated source of energy required for all life on earth. Sit in the sun & feel your body soaking this energy.

Be in sync with nature & manage your cervical spondylitis naturally.
