Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Back At It - With Dr. Decompression, Dr. JD Dudum breaks down Cervical Stenosis, explaining what it is, how it develops, and what symptoms to watch for. He describes how spinal canal narrowing puts pressure on the spinal cord, leading to stiffness, reduced mobility, and nerve-related symptoms like numbness and weakness in both hands. Dr. Dudum shares the case of Eric, a patient diagnosed with severe cervical stenosis and recommended for a three-level spinal fusion. Suffering from stiffness, numb hands, and restricted neck movement, Eric found 80% relief in just three weeks of targeted spinal decompression therapy, laser treatments, and muscle stimulation. While stenosis cannot be reversed, Dr. Dudum emphasizes that decompression can reduce inflammation, improve function, and slow its progression—helping patients avoid surgery. 0:24 – Breaking Down Stenosis: Explanation of spinal canal narrowing and why it happens. 3:45 – Early Symptoms of Cervical Stenosis: Stiffness, achiness, and loss of neck mobility. 6:30 – Case Study - Eric's Story: Severe stenosis, numb hands, and an 80% improvement in 3 weeks. 9:20 – Slowing Down Stenosis Progression: Why decompression helps reduce inflammation and prevent worsening. #CervicalStenosis #SpinalHealth #NeckPainRelief #SpinalDecompression #AvoidSurgery #ChiropracticCare #BackAtItPodcast
