Do you know the most common reason for spinal surgery in people over the age of 65?

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis is narrowing of the lumbar vertebral spinal canal that houses the spinal cord. The main symptom experienced with lumbar stenosis is Neurogenic Claudication, which is severe pain, weakness, sensory deficits, or cramping in the legs. These symptoms are typically relieved by sitting or with forward flexion. Lumbar stenosis is a degenerative process, with risk factors of advanced age and previous spine trauma or surgeries. Stenosis occurs when structures within/surrounding the vertebrae (such as ligaments, discs, osteophyte growths on the vertebral body) become calcified and hypertrophied, therefore decreasing the space allowed for the spinal cord.

How can Chiropractic help?

Flexion Technique is a light force, low speed technique that requires a special type of chiropractic table. The technique involves contacting on each individual lumbar segment while simultaneously flexing the legs down towards the floor. This opens up the joint and disc spaces of the lumbar spine while simultaneously stretching the musculature of the lumbar spine. This technique is the most recommended for patients with Lumbar Stenosis to relieve pain and increase mobilization.

Do you spend the majority of your day sitting? Ever experience pain in the buttocks that radiates down the back of the leg?

Piriformis Syndrome is a neuromusculoskeletal condition that involves compression and/or irritation of the Sciatic Nerve by the Piriformis Muscle. The piriformis muscle is a deep gluteal muscle that externally rotates the hip (opens the hip and turns the toes out). Typically the sciatic nerve runs underneath the piriformis muscle, but there are anatomic variations where the sciatic nerve runs directly through the piriformis muscle, or both above and below it. When the piriformis muscle is spasmed or tight, it can compress and irritate the sciatic nerve, causing the radiating pain down the leg. This compression is caused by long durations of seated posture, falling on the buttocks, long distance biking, or poor sleeping posture. The pain is typically worse when seated, squatting, or with internal rotation of the hip.

How can Chiropractic help?

A tight/spasmed piriformis muscle can pull on the pelvic bones causing rotation within the pelvis. Chiropractic adjustments to the pelvis correct the misalignments and allows the muscles of the gluteal region to relax and relieve pain. There are also stretches we can show you to stretch and relax the piriformis muscle to relieve the compression and irritation on the sciatic nerve.
