Apple Country Chiropractic Treats Back, Neck, Arm and Leg Pain
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 forefront in your mind. Apple Country Chiropractic offers 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 us talk about back surgery. Less than 1% of people with low back, neck, and/or leg and arm pain have spine surgery. (1,2) That leaves 99% of people with back and extremity pain to be treated non-surgically. This kind of care is the strength of your Williamson chiropractor at Apple Country Chiropractic. What is the possibility of such non-surgical treatment as Cox® Distraction Spine Manipulation to benefit you?
THE COX® FLEXION DISTRACTION OPTION
Flexion distraction spine manipulation is reported to be a good intervention for heightening disc height loss in disc herniation patients. (3) Another study revealed 50% pain relief following distraction spine manipulation in patients with low back pain. (4) Cox® distraction combined 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 entailed 18 visits in a month of care. Cox® distraction manipulation appears to be a safe and effective non-invasive treatment for patients with lumbar disc herniation. (5) Safety is always forefront of care at Apple Country Chiropractic.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The review of safety of spine manipulation shows 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 wants the best surgeon, studies confirm that patients with an elevated possibility of having surgery are optimally partnered with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® chiropractors like your Williamson chiropractor at Apple Country Chiropractic 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 valuable than any MRI findings. (8) Cox® certified doctors of chiropractic like your Williamson chiropractor at Apple Country Chiropractic are well-versed and examined in the orthopedic and neurological indicators of spine and extremity pain patients. The extensive clinical examination establishes the treatment plan for your desired pain relief.
