Abstract	This case study presents the comprehensive post-laminectomy physiotherapy management of Saroj Devi, a 47-year-old female patient diagnosed with cervical canal stenosis. Following a laminectomy procedure to alleviate spinal cord and nerve root compression, Saroj experienced persistent neck pain, reduced mobility, upper limb weakness, and sensory deficits. The aim of this case study was to describe the assessment findings, goal setting, treatment interventions, and outcomes of Saroj's physiotherapy intervention. The treatment approach included pain management techniques, range of motion exercises, strengthening exercises, sensory re-education, endurance training, and patient education. Over the course of several weeks, Saroj demonstrated remarkable improvements in pain reduction, neck mobility, upper limb strength, sensory function, and endurance. This case study emphasizes the importance of physiotherapy in post-operative management of cervical canal stenosis, highlighting its role in enhancing functional recovery and improving the quality of life for patients like Saroj Devi.
