Editorial Policy
Cervical Curve Guide publishes patient-friendly health education. The editorial goal is to be useful, conservative, and transparent about uncertainty.
Source standards
Medical framing should rely on clinician-grade sources such as PubMed, PubMed Central, NCBI Bookshelf, specialty clinical guidelines, reputable medical centers, and professional references. External videos are treated as movement references only.
Claims we avoid
We do not claim that a specific exercise can guarantee curve restoration, cure cervical radiculopathy, prevent injury, or safely replace clinical evaluation. Recommendations are framed around education, symptom response, graded exposure, and discussion with qualified clinicians.
Red flags and escalation
Content that mentions exercise or sport participation should include stopping rules or clear escalation language when neurological symptoms, trauma, infection signs, cancer history, or spinal-cord warning signs are relevant.
Translation process
Translations should preserve medical meaning while reading naturally in each language. If a literal translation would create confusion or overstate certainty, clarity and conservative wording take priority.
Updates
Pages should show a review or update date. Source links, video availability, and medical claims should be rechecked when major content changes are made, and at least annually for core medical pages.
