What actually helps with spinal stenosis?
Gravity Stretching Method Team
Spinal stenosis is a narrowing of the space inside the spine, which can press on the nerves and cause pain, tingling or heaviness, often worse when standing or walking. People with stenosis frequently notice relief when they lean forward or sit, because that gently opens the canal.
How Gravity Stretching helps
Decompression works on the same principle, but more completely: hanging in straps lengthens the spine and opens the space between the vertebrae, which can take pressure off the nerves. Sessions are slow and supported, so you stay within comfort.
Stenosis should be managed with your doctor. Use Gravity Stretching as a gentle complement, starting at the easiest level with a trainer.
