Muscle spasm usually straightens the natural curve in the cervical lordis. Massage, physical therapy, and acupuncture are potential treatments for this condition.
The cervical curvature is the most superior spinal curvature.
Hypolordosis means a reversal of the normal spinal curvature, and cervical refers to the neck, so cervical hypolordosis would mean the neck is not curved properly. The human spine in profile from the side looks somewhat like an S. This reversal can be due to trauma, or more commonly, due to degenerative conditions, such as aging or arthritic changes.

cervical curvature
The cervical curvature is considered a secondary curvature of the spine. It develops as a compensatory curve to help maintain balance and support the weight of the head.
No, the cervical curvature is considered the secondary curvature, the primary curvatures are the thoracic and sacral curvatures. The lumbar curvature is also considered the Secondary Secondary curvature (yes that's two secondarys, as in the second secondary)
The thoracic and sacral curvatures are obvious at birth. The cervical curvature develops when a baby begins to hold its head up independently, and the lumbar curvature develops when the baby learns to walk.
As the baby begins to lift their head, the cervical curvature starts to develop. This curvature is critical for supporting the head and eventually will form the distinct C-shape of the neck. Strengthening of the neck muscles during this stage is crucial for the baby's motor development.
