CCGI Best Practice Collaborators

In April 2016, CCGI Opinion Leaders were joined by a new team of CCGI Best Practice Collaborators. These are influential evidence-informed clinicians recently nominated by their colleagues in a nationwide survey. They are assisting Opinion Leaders in their area with reaching out to other chiropractors and teaching them about critical thinking, proper interpretation of evidence-informed clinical practice guidelines, and evidence-informed practice in general.

CCGI is delighted to have them on board and looks forward to collaborating with them to take the best practices forward in Canada.

Lumbar Spinal Stenosis

What is lumbar spinal stenosis?

A gradual narrowing of the spinal canal in the lower part of the back. Lumbar stenosis can cause difficulties with walking, back pain, and numbness in the legs.

Will my pain go away?

Treatment may increase strength and endurance, especially with walking, as well as help you to return to activities you enjoy.

What can I do?

To help speed up recovery, it is important for you to participate in your care with your healthcare provider. In addition, continue day-to-day activities even if you experience some pain (within reason).
