Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Greetings all, I am hoping for some expert advice regarding a client who has been diagnosed with spinal stenosis, "a narrowing of spaces in the spine that results in pressure on the spinal cord and/or nerve roots" As a result, this 73 year old man has severe pain in his lower legs, along the sciatic nerve. I am planning on giving him sets that emphasize spinal flexes, life nerve stretches, twists, and maybe some navel chakra work, perhaps some stretch pose? I was planning to use the sun salutations to warm him up -- he can do the triangle pose and has good upper body strength. Would anybody care to comment on the advisability of certain sets? Are there some dietary recommendations? Thanks for your input, Love and Light, Avneesh Singh/Michael Conley Milford NH > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 9, 2005 Report Share Posted August 9, 2005 Sat Nam, This is non KY advise. The best external healing I have found for compressed spine is an alignment called Alphabiotics,. You can look this up on the Internet and see if there are any practitioners near you. They pull on the neck and spine to decompress the spine.

Guest guest Posted August 11, 2005 Report Share Posted August 11, 2005 Sat Nam Avneesh, Has your client tried acupuncture? My 84 year old mother has spinal stenosis and has found great relief with monthly acupuncture treatments. Prithi Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
