What is spondylolisthesis and what are the reasons why it can present a significant problem for certain people? This disorder, which involves the displacement of one vertebra over another, can seriously affect quality of life. Below, we will explore what spondylolisthesis is, its causes, symptoms, and how chiropractic can help you.
Spondylolisthesis occurs when one vertebra moves forward on the vertebra below it. This displacement can vary in severity and is classified into five degrees, with grade 1 being the mildest and grade 5, known as spondyloptosis, being the most severe, where the vertebra has completely displaced.
Spondylolisthesis affects approximately 5-6% in men and 2-3% in women, and is more common in those who perform considerable physical effort such as lifting weights. The pathology can occur from childhood but is more common in adolescence and adulthood due to increased physical activity and daily wear and tear.
Many people with spondylolisthesis do not experience initial symptoms. However, episodes of low back pain can occur, which is more common in adults than in children. In more severe cases, the pain can radiate and become lumbosciatica. It is rarely accompanied by herniated discs.
Chiropractic care can be very beneficial for spondylolisthesis, especially through spinal adjustments that are applied to the spinal segments of the affected vertebra. These adjustments seek to recover the biomechanical function of the spine, facilitating the flow of nerve impulses and improving communication between the brain and the rest of the body.
At our practice, we have seen good results in patients with spondylolisthesis who choose chiropractic care. It has helped many feel better and have fewer acute relapses than before treatment.
We encourage you to take care of yourself from now on, without waiting until you feel sick or have various symptoms.

It is studied in specialized chiropractic universities. The chiropractic professional receives a minimum training of 5 years that guarantees the quality and safety of the service it offers.
During the chiropractic university career, you don't study surgery or pharmacy but deeper physiology, anatomy, radiology, neurology, and specific manual chiropractic techniques.
As this profession hasn't been approved yet in Spain, you must go to a "true" chiropractic.
Many people use this legacy to practice manipulations of the vertebral column without the correct studies and knowledge.
