Health care is of great significance to us. We have many health care methods. We can choose the health care method that suits us.

Cervical spondylosis is a very difficult disease to treat. The effect of drug treatment for cervical spondylosis is not very good, so we can seek help from Chinese medicine's massage techniques. Let's take a look at how to use massage to treat cervical spondylosis.

(1) The patient sits upright, and the doctor stands behind him and applies massage to the Fengfu, Jianzhongshu, Jianwaishu, and Tianzong points. This can relax the tendons and meridians, and relieve the spasmodic muscles in the neck and shoulders.

(2) The patient sits down. The doctor stands behind the patient and applies the method to the Fengchi, Fengfu and Jianjing points to relax the muscles and unclog the meridians, further relieving the spasmodic muscles. This can open up the meridians and promote the flow of qi and blood, and gradually soften the stiff and spasmodic muscles in the neck and shoulders.

(3) The patient sits down. The doctor stands beside the patient, supports the patient's head with the base of one hand and the lower jaw with the other hand. The doctor wraps his palm around the patient's head and pulls it upward, using the patient's body weight to widen the intervertebral space and enlarge the intervertebral foramen.
