Chiropractic Management & Rehabilitation of Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

This dynamic, hands-on 8‑hour course gives chiropractors a powerful, evidence-informed framework for evaluating and treating the stenotic patient with confidence. You'll move from understanding the "aging spine" to mastering targeted manual therapy, flexion‑bias rehab, and functional strategies that restore mobility, reduce neurogenic claudication, and improve quality of life.

• •Identify the anatomical and pathophysiological changes associated with lumbar spinal stenosis and age-related degenerative disc disease
• •Apply evidence-based clinical assessment protocols to differentiate neurogenic claudication from vascular claudication and other mimicking conditions
• •Demonstrate targeted manual therapy techniques appropriate for stenotic spine management, including mobilization and manipulation contraindications
• •Design and implement flexion-bias rehabilitation programs that progressively restore mobility and reduce symptoms
• •Develop functional exercise strategies and patient education protocols that improve long-term outcomes and quality of life
• •Integrate conservative management principles with appropriate referral criteria for surgical consultation
