Lumbar Spinal Stenosis (Lower Back)

Lumbar stenosis is a classification of spinal stenosis targeting the lower back or lumbar section of the spine. As with other types of spinal stenosis, the condition is caused by the narrowing of the vertebral canal, which in turn causes pinching or compression of spinal nerves. Resulting symptoms often include numbness and tingling in one or more of the extremities. This can cause pain and, in some cases, may make it difficult for a person suffering from the condition to stand or walk.

Today's modern age of medicine offers many options for treating lumbar spinal stenosis. Depending on the severity of one's condition, the minimally invasive procedures offered by our professional, award winning doctors at Laser Spine Institute are a very viable option.

The two procedures we perform to help alleviate pain caused by your lumbar spinal stenosis are a foraminotomy and a laminotomy. Our professional staff has performed these procedures hundreds of times, helping people take back control of their lives and start living again. We encourage you to take a moment and read some of the testimonials written by our previous patients to see how we have impacted their lives.
