ABSTRACT

The spine is the main structure of support of human skeleton. It has flexibility due to elasticity of the spinal discs & ligaments. The average length of spinal cord in adult males is 71cm and in adult female is 60 cm. It supports the body weight of human and allows the body to move in all directions. It is made up of 7 cervical vertebrae, 12 thoracic vertebrae, 5 lumbar vertebrae, 5 sacral vertebrae and 4 coccyx vertebrae. In modern era; poor posture, a disorganised life style with bad food habits, corporate culture with smart phones and computers, prolonged posture associated with the spine leads spinal disorders such as lumbar spine stenosis, spondylitis & A.V.N (Avascular Necrosis). AVN is a bone disease characterized by necrosis of the bone due to loss of blood supply. The hip joint is the most common location for AVN to develop, although other joints may also be affected. Ayurvedic Neurotherapy is the preferred (recommended) treatment option for AVN in ancient practice. Ayurvedic Neurotherapy works on the nervous system; regenerating nerve, thereby achieves complete recovery from the symptoms of AVN. Ayurvedic Neurotherapy is a specialized and unique therapy offered as medicine for spine and joint disorder. Ayurvedic Neurotherapy can be successfully implemented to treat these conditions without surgical intervention. This article presented case reports of AVN successfully treated with Ayurvedic Neurotherapy.
