That would to some extent depend on what the appropriate TCM diagnosis is and also where the stenosis is. The nerves that innervate the bladder are mostly from the sacrum, S2 and S3 with one of the sympathetic branches coming from L2. So with that in mind, those huatuo jiaji points would be a start. Then depending on the TCM diagnosis probably add some distal kidney or urinary bladder points.

I’d suggest you have the patient find a good yoga or possibly pilates teacher to help strengthen and realign the spine which in turn can help the stenosis.
