Minster Chiropractic Center Treats Back, Neck, Arm and Leg Pain
What treatment considerations should you think about for your spine and/or extremity pain, your back and leg pain, your neck and arm pain? When you have these conditions, this question is forefront in your mind. Minster Chiropractic Center presents the well-documented, non-surgical, safe and gentle Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as an answer 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 means 99% of people with back and extremity pain will be treated non-surgically. This type of care is the forte of your Minster chiropractor at Minster Chiropractic Center. What is the possibility 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 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 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 appears to be a safe and effective non-invasive treatment for patients with lumbar disc herniation. (5) Safety is always forefront of care at Minster Chiropractic Center.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The study of safety of spine manipulation explains that chiropractic students are taught correct delivery of force in delivering Cox® manipulation to patients. (6) Similar to a patient seeking surgical treatment for spine pain wants the best surgeon, studies verify that patients with a high probability of having surgery are best partnered with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® practitioners like your Minster chiropractor at Minster Chiropractic Center are trained and then assessed by written and hands-on testing before being certified in Cox® distraction manipulation.
CLINICAL EXAM IMPORTANT IN THE COX® TECHNIC SYSTEM
Lastly, 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 Minster chiropractor at Minster Chiropractic Center are well-versed and examined in the orthopedic and neurological findings of spine and extremity pain patients. The thorough clinical examination establishes the treatment plan for your wanted pain relief.
