Simply speaking, it happens when the space inside of the backbone is too small. This narrowing of the spinal canal leads to compression of the spinal cord or the nerve roots. There is both lumbar stenosis and cervical stenosis, both of which produce symptoms related to the nerves of the spinal cord. Symptoms can be very wide ranging and can affect the entire body. Some people with spinal stenosis have no symptoms.
Physiotherapy, Chiropractic care, and massage therapy have all been shown to successfully treat symptoms of spinal stenosis. Physiotherapy can offer exercises that may help to build up your strength and endurance, especially in the abdominal and back muscles, to help maintain the flexibility and stability of your spine and improve your balance. Chiropractic care is intended to treat it without medication, through manual spinal adjustments, stretches, and other therapies. Manual adjustments can correct the misalignment of the vertebra, as well as disc displacement, so that the ligaments, back muscles, and bones experience less stress. Massage therapy may also be used to help manage your pain.
