This case report presents an office worker diagnosed with Cervical Type Cervical Spondylosis who underwent Meridian Balancing Acupuncture therapy. The patient had experienced recurrent episodes of pain and stiffness over several years, with exacerbations in the past three years, which were managed with conventional, modern medical treatments. However, these interventions did not result in long-term resolution, as symptoms consistently relapsed within a few days. Due to the increasing burden of the condition, the patient opted for acupuncture treatment and was administered a prescribed Meridian Balancing Acupuncture regimen. The treatment protocol consisted of three 30-minute acupuncture sessions, administered every other day over the course of one week. Distal acupuncture points on the limbs were selected and manipulated every 5-10 minutes. During palpation of sensitive/reactive points, as well as during needling and manipulation, the patients were instructed to gradually rotate their neck in various directions to assess symptom relief. After the initial treatment, the patient experienced complete resolution of pain and stiffness, though a mild relapse was observed before the second and third sessions. By the conclusion of the treatment course, both pain and stiffness were fully resolved. A follow-up conducted four weeks post-treatment revealed no recurrence of Cervical Spondylosis symptoms.
