This practical and entertaining webinar will begin with a discussion of the current evidence-based evaluation and management of common lumbar complaints. The discussion will progress to review commonly overlooked “functional” problems that delay recovery. In one way or another, these functional diagnoses contribute to many, if not all, of the lumbopelvic structural diagnoses that chiropractors treat. Attendees will leave this class with real-world tools to better manage the most common MSK presenting problem.

Patients more and more are wanting and asking for nutritional recommendations. While some get advice on the internet and others from health food stores, we as Chiropractic Physicians are poised to provide that education which will enhance patient care and create more successful outcomes. Knowing what supplements can do, how long to keep patients on them and at what dosages can be difficult to navigate. This session will give you some great protocols to implement safely in your patient population. We will discuss musculoskeletal conditions as well as topics such as sleep and fatigue that can stifle the patient's progress to heal.

The opioid crisis has continued to be a part of our lives and the pandemic has resulted in a surge in misuse and death. Chiropractors provide treatment methods that have been shown to reduce the initiation of opioids and reduce pain. This discussion will focus on steps and practices that chiropractors can take to be part of this solution and be part of the team to reduce pain and improve function.

While the nation practices social distancing to slow the spread of COVID-19, leverage these telehealth tips to continue to serve your patients and provide patient-centered care.

In June of 2018 the landmark Lancet Low Back Pain Series was published. Professor Jan Hartvigsen was co-chair for the steering group. In this webinar he will present the content and key points from the series. These include description of what low back pain is and the burden and impact of low back pain on individuals and societies; current recommendations from evidence-based clinical guidelines and the evidence-practice gap that is apparent everywhere; promising new directions in management of low back pain; and finally, a global call to action for individuals, clinicians and decision makers. He will highlight the need for change in the way we deal with low back pain and musculoskeletal disorders and how chiropractors can be important stakeholders in promoting and leading this change.

COVID-19 has quickly and dramatically altered the healthcare landscape. Many chiropractors are losing the ability to provide hands-on care for their patients. Elective in-office visits are evaporating along with the associated revenue. However, this is not the time for providers or patients to free-fall with a wait-and-see attitude. Chiropractors can continue to deliver valuable services to homebound patients via telehealth. Dr. Tim Bertelsman and Dr. Kevin Sharp will co-present a timely 60-minute webinar on the essentials of telehealth. This webinar will provide a detailed 8-step process for continuing to provide patients with the best possible service in the current environment as well as the coding and documentation requirements for this type of service delivery. This webinar is free for all ACA members. It is not for CE credit.
