- Spinal stenosis is when the neural canal, also called the spinal canal, is narrowed. When this occurs, there is pressure that is placed on the millions of nerves running through the spine. There are many factors that can be attributed to spinal stenosis such as: excessive bone growth, thickening of the soft tissues within the canal like ligaments / cartilage, or even a herniated disc.
- This narrowing can distort the nerves within the spine causing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the lower extremity (buttocks, legs, feet). This commonly occurs in the lumbar spine. Prior to any treatment of the spine (Upper Cervical Spinal Correction or Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression) a thorough diagnostic examination will be performed to create a customized and comprehensive plan of care.
Testimonials
I have been unable to do most of life for the past 2-3 years due to back pain. This pain had become so bad I was sleeping in a recliner more than my bed. Today I took my first treatment of decompression and the laser. After the treatment the pain in my back had left. While checking out I was able to stand to schedule prior to the treatment 2 minutes was the maximum time I could stand! I am so amazed and can’t wait to see what else will happen with all the treatments.
