Dry Needling and Spinal Manipulation vs. Conventional PT for Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Addition of Electric Dry Needling and Spinal Manipulation to Impairment-based Manual Therapy, Stretching, Strengthening and Electrothermal Modalities for Patients With Lumbar Spinal Stenosis: a Multi-randomized Clinical Trial

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this research is to compare two different approaches for treating patients with lumbar spinal stenosis: electric dry needling and thrust manipulation versus impairment-based manual therapy, stretching, strengthening and electrothermal modalities. Physical therapists commonly use all of these techniques to treat lumbar spinal stenosis. This study is attempting to find out if one treatment strategy is more effective than the other.

Clinical Trial Description

Patients with lumbar spinal stenosis will be randomized to receive 1-2 treatment sessions per week for 6 weeks (up to 12 sessions total) of either: (1) electric dry needling and thrust manipulation or (2) impairment-based manual therapy, stretching, strengthening and electrothermal modalities ;
