For those who are suffering from short or long-term back pain, finding relief is essential. No matter how active you are or what you do for a living, acute or chronic back pain can wreak havoc on your personal and professional life. Here at Pinnacle Chiropractic and Rehab, we offer a special form of chiropractic treatment for spinal pain called the Cox technique.
What Is the Cox Technique?
The Cox technique is a non-surgical hands-on technique that is used to relieve chronic pain in specific areas of the spine. This technique is used as a way to gently decompress the spine, alleviating bulging or herniated discs in both the low back and/or neck. It also helps to reduce pressure on the nerves located in the spinal column. The Cox technique involves the use of a specialized table while applying specific amounts of manual manipulation to targeted areas of the spine in a smooth and rhythmic motion.
Benefits of Using the Cox Technique
If you are struggling with back pain, then our team can help with the use of the Cox technique. Some of the prominent benefits of using this technique are:
-
Dropping intradiscal pressure to as low as -192 mm Hg in the lumbar spine and 96 to 1583 mm Hg in the cervical spine
-
Widening of the spinal canal area by 28%
-
Reduces pressure on spinal nerves
-
Returning motion to spinal joints
Conditions Treated
The main goal of the Cox treatment is to get your pain from present to nonexistent. Using specific methods with the aid of the Cox treatment table, our team is able to manipulate the spine without the need of surgery. The Cox technique is helpful for conditions causing low back pain and leg pain as well as neck pain and arm pain caused by the following conditions:
-
Herniated or bulging discs
