Lumbar spinal stenosis may result from a variety of issues like a disc herniation, disc bulge or contained disc, synovial cyst. Anything that shrinks the spinal canal area that causes reduced 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 San Jose chiropractor at Chiropractic Solutions offer non-surgical means - like San Jose spinal manipulation and mobilization which are reported to keep the disc healthy by improved water flow and diffusion (1) - to do the same thing: diminish spinal stenosis and widen the spinal canal area.
A comparison of surgical and conservative treatments of spinal stenosis shows that conservative care is better. At 6 months post-care – surgical or non-surgical – no significant differences are noted in the spinal stenosis patients. At 12 and 24 months post-care, the surgical spinal stenosis patients had higher disability scores. Surgical spinal stenosis patients experienced 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 conclusive proof to recommend surgical or non-surgical care to lumbar spinal stenosis sufferers.
