Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the spinal canal that puts pressure on nerves, common in older adults and causing pain or numbness in the back and legs. Physiotherapy relieves pressure through posture correction and targeted exercises that improve mobility.
When to see a physiotherapist: Seek medical attention if there is loss of bladder or bowel control, worsening leg weakness, or numbness that spreads or intensifies.
