The most common site of involvement is L3 to L5, although vertebral osteophytes may occur at any level. Loss of the lumbar lordosis, pain with extension, and paraspinal muscle spasm are typical findings.
        The sessions aim to relax, stretch and strengthen the spinal support muscles, reduce pain, and increase blood circulation to aid the healing process, decompress and correct misalignments of the spine with the help of props.
         Lumbar spondylosis is a degenerative condition that develops gradually over time, being more common in older individuals. This condition can also be referred to as spinal osteoarthritis. It occurs due to the wear-and-tear of the bones that happens from normal everyday movement. The lower spine is composed of disc-like structures that are cushioned by soft gel-like sections in between them. The purpose of these sections is to promote flexibility and absorb the load of stress applied to the vertebra. Degeneration of these areas causes a loss of elasticity and a propensity to be torn or damaged. If this type of damage were to occur, it may lead to a condition called disc prolapse, disc herniation, or a slipped disc—a common feature of lumbar spondylosis.
