Degenerative lumbar spinal stenosis (DLSS) is a type of spinal osteoarthritis that affects the lower spine, causing narrowing of the spinal canals. This can compress the spinal nerves that travel through the canals to the lower back and legs as pain, burning, numbness, tingling and weakness of the legs, buttock and lower back. The symptoms usually are brought on from standing and walking.
**What treatments are currently available?**
Surgery is an option for only a minority because of the potential risks involved. It is recommended that before surgery is contemplated, a course of non-surgical treatment is tried first.
How will the Boot Camp Program help me?
Dr. Ammendolia and his research team have developed an approach with the focus of improving standing and walking ability in patients with LSS. The overall goal of the program is to improve the quality of life and maintain independence. The program combines manual therapy, special exercises, instruction on body re-positioning techniques and self-management strategies. Special exercises help restore weak back and leg muscles and when combined with body alignment strategies, help to reduce the pressure on the compressed nerves when standing and walking.

En quoi ça consiste
Most of this first chiropractic visit is spent figuring out what’s driving your issue — history, movement checks, posture, reflexes and hands-on testing — then, if it fits, some joint or soft-tissue work and a clear plan for what happens next.
