Abstract

Medicine is not merely a science but art as well. The science of medicine is of fundamental importance to Man’s well being and survival. The most common problem in day to day life is Saganavadham (Cervical Spondylosis). So the authors have choosen this disease and attempts to search for a perfect remedy for the same. According to the Tridosha theory mentioned in siddha literatures, this disease occurs due to imbalance of three thathus. The three thathus are made up of pancha Boothas. These panja boothas also form the basis for suvai. Saganavadham is the disease which occurs due to vitiation of vadha (Vali + Aahayam). To neutralize the vadha kutram the suvai Salt (appu + theyu) is necessary. The trial medicines are “Agni Choornam and Maasha thylam”. Along with these medicines, yoga and certain exercises were also adviced to the patients to get good results.
