Physiotherapy for Lumbar Spondylosis
WHAT IT IS?
Degenerative changes in the spine such as degenerating intervertebral discs and bone spurs between the vertebrae are called spondylosis. Spondylosis is a condition that causes deterioration of the vertebrae, discs, and ligaments in the spine.
Frequently spondylosis is also called osteoarthritis.
Spondylosis can occur in the lumbar spine (low back), cervical spine (neck) or thoracic spine (upper and mid back).
The most common is a lumbar and cervical form of spondylosis.
Thoracic spondylosis, on the other hand, frequently does not cause symptoms.
Lumbosacral spondylosis is spondylosis that affects both the sacral and the lumbar spine (sacral spine is below the lumbar spine, in the midline between the buttocks).
Multilevel spondylosis involves the changes that affect multiple vertebrae in the spine.
There can be very many causative factors predisposing and making a person more susceptible to spondylitis, such as:
The general cause of spondylosis is daily worn of ligaments, discs, etc.
These changes affect people differently, depending on each individual’s risk factors.
Risk factors include:
Age-related spondylosis does not showcase any symptoms. Some people have symptoms for a while, but then they go away. A sudden movement, sometimes, can trigger symptoms.
Following certain movements, while sitting for a long time or for being still for long periods without moving, for example, worsen the most common symptoms of stiffness and mild pain.
More severe symptoms include:
• muscle spasms and pain
• headaches
• loss of balance and difficulty walking
• a grinding or popping feeling when moving the spine
• weakness in the hands or legs
• poor coordination
• loss of bladder or bowel control
Doctors usually prescribe physiotherapy for any sort of neck or back pain which does not resolve on its own after a few weeks. Physiotherapy for lumbar spondylosis is often prescribed for chronic back or neck pain for muscle strengthening and stretching. Physiotherapists demonstrate specific exercises which, when performed daily, helps to strengthen the back and abdominal muscles and prevent recurrent pain. Physical exercise, like walking and yoga on a regular basis, have been shown in studies to be beneficial for chronic back pain.
Physiotherapy for lumbar spondylosis involves mainly three main components: education, passive treatments, and active treatments.
A physiotherapist uses passive treatments to relax your body and to decrease inflammation or acute pain. This doesn’t require active participation, hence the name.
Passive Treatments for Spondylosis
Deep Tissue Massage: This technique targets chronic muscle tension and spasm that perhaps develops through daily life stress and could be also because of sprains or strains. The therapist uses direct pressure and friction of fingers to try to release the tension in your soft tissues (ligaments, tendons, muscles).
Hot and Cold Therapies: Lumbar physiotherapy will alternate between hot and cold therapies. By using heat, the physiotherapist for lumbar pain seeks to get more blood to the target area because increased blood flow brings more nutrients and oxygen to that area and helps in the easy recovery.
Cold therapy which is also called cryotherapy, on the other hand, slows circulation, helping to reduce I muscle spasms, and pain.
Electrical stimulation: This method can be performed within the clinic and if extremely successful, E-stimulation stimulates muscles through variable and of electrical current. It helps reduce muscle spasms, reduce inflammation, bring in healing properties, and it may increase your body’s production of endorphins, your natural pain killers.
Active Treatments for Spondylosis
In the active part of physiotherapy for lumbar pain, To improve your strength, core stability, flexibility, and range of motion (how easily your joints move), your therapist will teach your various exercises. But we can generally say that you may learn about body mechanics—how to move your body so that you don’t increase your pain. You’ll learn how to avoid positions that exacerbate your pain. You may also learn about correcting your posture and how to use good ergonomics at work.
