Burlington and Hamilton Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Relief at Spinal Care Clinic

Chiropractic relieves conditions like spinal stenosis. Spinal stenosis is everywhere today. Why? An aging population. We are all aging, and when we get to a certain age, our bodies compensate us with conditions like spinal stenosis. There is no problem, though! Chiropractic care is a solution for many spinal stenosis pain patients. Spinal Care Clinic offers gentle, evidence-based chiropractic care in the form of Cox Technic to help control and relieve back pain due to spinal stenosis.

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis 

Lumbar spinal stenosis may be the result of any of a number of issues like a disc herniation, disc bulge or contained disc, synovial cyst. Any condition that shrinks the spinal canal area resulting in less space for the spinal nerves and other elements may cause spinal stenosis and pain. Surgeons and medical device companies offer surgical means to reduce spinal stenosis and open the spinal canal area. Conservative care back pain specialists like chiropractors and your Burlington and Hamilton chiropractor at Spinal Care Clinic offer non-surgical means - like Burlington and Hamilton spinal manipulation and mobilization which are shown to positively affect the water flow and diffusion into the disc, keeping it healthy (1) - to do the same thing: reduce spinal stenosis and widen the spinal canal area.

Surgical vs Non-Surgical Care 

A comparison of surgical and conservative treatments of spinal stenosis shows that conservative care is more positive. At 6 months post-care – surgical or non-surgical – no significant differences are presented in the spinal stenosis patients. At 12 and 24 months post-care, the surgical spinal stenosis patients report higher disability scores. Surgical spinal stenosis patients suffered higher complication rates than the conservative care spinal stenosis patients. Based on their reviews of the published data, the researchers still do not feel that there is decisive proof to endorse surgical or non-surgical care to lumbar spinal stenosis sufferers. (2) Spinal Care Clinic offers that a trial of 30 days looking for 50% improvement for most Burlington and Hamilton back pain patients with research-documented chiropractic care following the protocols of the Cox Technic System of Care.

Early Improvement Under Care 

Those spinal stenosis patients who show 33% to 50% improvement in pain at 2 weeks of care have improved odds of 6 to 7 times higher to have 50% improvement at their 6 months’ disability follow up.
