What should
you consider for treatment of your spine and/or extremity pain, your back
and leg pain, your neck and arm pain? When you suffer these
conditions, this question is top of mind.
Spine & Sports Rehab Center uses the well-documented, non-surgical,
safe and gentle Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as a
response to that question.
BACK SURGERY
First, let’s talk about back
surgery. Less than 1% of people with low back, neck, and/or leg and arm pain undergo
spine surgery. (1,2) That means 99% of people with back and extremity pain will be treated
non-surgically. This kind of care is the strength of your
Baton Rouge chiropractor at Spine & Sports Rehab Center. What is the potential
of such non-surgical treatment as Cox® Distraction Spine Manipulation to help
you?
THE COX® FLEXION DISTRACTION OPTION
Flexion distraction spine manipulation is reported
to be a good intervention for treating disc
height loss in disc herniation patients. (3) Another study revealed
50% pain relief after distraction spine manipulation in
patients with low back pain. (4) Cox® distraction mixed with
therapeutic modalities over a 4-week treatment period for patients
with lumbar disc herniation produced significant improvement in
muscle strength, disability, and relief of sciatica. The entire
treatment consisted of 18 visits in a month of care. Cox® distraction manipulation looks to
be a safe and effective non-invasive treatment for patients
with lumbar disc herniation. (5) Safety is always forefront of
care at Spine & Sports Rehab Center.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The review of safety of spine manipulation explains
that chiropractic students learn correct delivery
of force in giving Cox® manipulation to patients. (6) Similar
to a patient seeking surgical treatment for spine
pain looks for the best surgeon, studies confirm
that patients with an elevated possibility
of having surgery are optimally matched
with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® chiropractors
like your Baton Rouge chiropractor at Spine & Sports Rehab Center are trained and then
examined by written and hands-on testing before being
certified in Cox® distraction manipulation.
CLINICAL EXAM IMPORTANT IN THE COX® TECHNIC SYSTEM
Last of all, be informed
that the clinical examination of your spine is just as and even
more important than any MRI findings. (8) Cox® certified doctors
of chiropractic like your Baton Rouge chiropractor at Spine & Sports Rehab Center are
most learned and tested in the neuro
and ortho findings of spine
and extremity pain patients. The thorough clinical examination
establishes the treatment path to your wanted
pain relief.
