What helps spinal stenosis besides surgery?

I have scoliosis which is gradually affecting more and more activities. I periodically have Physical Therapy to strengthen my core, and it does help. But I know this isn't a cure and the effects from having a crooked spine will only worsen with age. Is there anyone out there who can advise/comment? Thanks!

@gmathews83 Hello and welcome to Connect. May I suggest another discussion where members are talking about scoliosis rather than stenosis?

I'm glad physical therapy and core strength helps. Keep up the good work!

I have a mild S curve
Does that effect you much, if its mild? Will ask my Mayo Dr too...
