Did you know spinal stenosis is the most challenging spinal condition to treat? It usually occurs in people later in life. What happens is degenerative changes such as disc degeneration, facet joint arthrosis or bulging discs narrow the canals where the spinal cord runs or where the nerve roots exit between the vertebrae. This is called stenosis. Stenosis causes compression on these delicate nerves can lead to lower back and leg pain or neck and arm pain.
No pill or shot will do anything to reverse this narrowing or to alleviate nerve pressure. Surgery is sometimes an option but should be reserved as the absolute last resort. What does help in many cases is spinal decompression therapy.
The reason is spinal decompression can increase the height of the disc, reduce the size of disc bulges or herniations, and also help improve range of motion in these degenerated areas. When this happens it creates more breathing room for the compressed nerves and significant pain relief occurs. This is the best non-drug and non-surgical way to provide relief for a very challenging spinal condition.
