Spondylolisthesis is a condition that can cause significant discomfort and limitation in your daily life. At Align Health, we understand the challenges posed by spondylolisthesis, and our compassionate team of healthcare professionals is dedicated to providing comprehensive management strategies to alleviate your pain and improve your spinal health.
Understanding Spondylolisthesis:
Spondylolisthesis is a condition in which a vertebra in the spine slips out of its normal position and moves forward over the one below it. This displacement can result in nerve compression, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the lower back and legs. Spondylolisthesis can be classified into different grades, depending on the severity of the slippage.
Comprehensive Evaluation:
At Align Health, we begin the management process by conducting a thorough evaluation of your condition. Our experienced healthcare providers will review your medical history, perform a physical examination, and may request imaging tests such as X-rays or MRI to assess the extent of the vertebra slippage and any nerve involvement.
Tailored Treatment Plan:
Based on the evaluation, we will create a personalized treatment plan that may include a combination of the following approaches:
Chiropractic Care: Gentle adjustments can help realign the affected vertebrae and relieve pressure on the nerves.
Physical Therapy: Customized exercises and stretches will be prescribed to strengthen the core and back muscles, improving spinal stability and flexibility.
Spinal Decompression: This non-surgical technique can reduce pressure on the affected vertebrae and alleviate nerve compression.
Pain Management: We may incorporate pain-relieving techniques such as heat or cold therapy to provide relief from discomfort.
Lifestyle Modifications: Our team will provide guidance on proper body mechanics and ergonomics to prevent further strain on the spine.

We understand the importance of empowering you with knowledge about your condition. Throughout your journey with Align Health, we will provide valuable information and support to help you better manage your spondylolisthesis and make informed decisions about your treatment.
