Do you use a mobile phone for extended time periods or frequently work at desk? These types of activities will keep a part of our body in stress for prolonged time periods. This stress impacts the cervical vertebrae and can lead to cervical spondylosis . Many people suffering from cervical spondylosis think it is no big deal. However, when treatment is delayed, the consequences can be disastrous.
If your main symptoms are a stiff neck and shoulder muscles or soreness, swelling, pain, and uncomfortable feelings accompanied by the feeling of heaviness and cold; traditional Chinese medicine believes that the neck has been adversely affected by wind, cold and damp pathogens. These pathogens at the neck acupuncture points cause stagnation in the meridians. The obstructions in the meridians cause uncomfortable feelings, even pain. Thus,the treatment for the shoulder/cervical pain is to clear the meridians, which invigorates Qi blood flow and dispels the wind, cold and damp pathogens.
