Find Relief From Your Spinal Stenosis Symptoms with Massage Therapy

One of the most common terms used in healthcare related to spine conditions is spinal stenosis, and it develops in the spinal column, where the spinal cord, nerve roots and vertebrae are located. The painful symptoms of spinal stenosis are caused by the constricting or narrowing of the spinal canal. People with this condition experience lower back pain, along with pain, weakness, and numbness or decreased sensation in the legs.

While surgical options are available to re-open the compressed spinal cord, they can be very invasive and require a long recovery time. Instead, most doctors suggest exercise paired with massage therapy to alleviate the discomfort associated with this degenerative neck and back ailment. Massage is optimal for immediate relief from symptoms, improving circulation, and a preferable alternative to drugs, which many people take to reduce the pain. Even for those who choose to undergo surgery, massage therapy is recommended to help reduce the pain from surgery and speed up recovery time.
