A new clinical trial is starting that will evaluate the effectiveness of a 6-week specific rehab program blending education and exercises on walking capacity in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication.

EXERCISE PROGRAM FOR LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS TESTED
The aim of this described study is to analyze whether adding an exercise program to an educational program can improve walking capacity in patients with lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication. Being a randomized controlled clinical trial, 60 participants will be randomly assigned to either the control group or the intervention group. The intervention group will get an educational program and an exercise program, while the control group will only get the educational program. The primary outcome measure is walking capacity, while the secondary outcome measures are pain intensity, disability level, and quality of life. (1) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. knows our Auburn spinal stenosis patients are quite interested in these outcomes!LUMBAR SPINAL STENOSIS WITH NEUROGENIC CLAUDICATION
Lumbar spinal stenosis with neurogenic claudication is a condition that produces narrowing of the spinal canal in the low back area, resulting in pressure on the nerves. This can lead to pain, numbness, and weakness in the legs and buttocks. In really bad cases, it can also make walking quite difficult. The condition is most common in people over the age of 50. These are just the people in Auburn who need to keep (or at least start) exercising!
THE EXERCISES
The specific exercises that will be utilized in this study are made to enhance walking capacity by stretching and strengthening the muscles surrounding the spine. The hope is that by doing these exercises regularly, patients will feel less pain and disability and experience a better quality of life.
THE CONTROL GROUP
The control group in this trial will only get an educational program about their condition and how to control it. While education is valuable, it is not typically enough on its own to provide significant relief from symptoms. That's why the addition of an exercise program is so important. It involves the back pain sufferer in his or her relief!
