New York City Back Pain and Spinal Stenosis and Osteoarthritis (Hip or Knee)
Osteoarthritis, knee or hip, may accompany low back pain for some folks. Lumbar spinal stenosis is a particular spinal condition that is growing as the population ages. Its symptoms often appear with other osteoarthritic conditions and stenosis symptoms. Rosenberg Wellness Center offers pain relieving New York City chiropractic care for spine pain relief for spinal stenosis and other spine pain conditions.
THE COMBINATION: Back Pain and Osteoarthritis
Recent research reported that 15% of knee and 23% of knee osteoarthritic patients also experienced lumbar spinal stenosis symptoms. They both experienced improvements in knee or hip related pain, function and quality of life when they went through a patient education and exercise program. So what produces results for these patients? Research study after research study states that exercise therapy likely enhances patient outcomes for patients with knee or hip osteoarthritis while no one kind is said to be better than the others. (1,2,3,4) Rosenberg Wellness Center includes spinal manipulation to boost the New York City chiropractic care and clinical outcomes.
TREATMENT FOR BACK PAIN AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
Not surprising to any of our current New York City chiropractic patients, hands-on spinal manipulation is central to our treatment plan.

This study documented clinical improvement for patients with knee pain. (6) Pain relief is our goal here at Rosenberg Wellness Center and is most likely yours as well!
