What is Cox® Decompression Manipulation?
Cox® Decompression Manipulation was invented by Dr. James M. Cox, a United States Chiropractor, in the 1960s.
It uses “Flexion-Distraction” and “Decompression” to adjust and manipulate the spine thus:
-
Dropping intradiscal pressure
-
Widening the spinal canal intervertebral foramen
-
Reducing pressure on the spinal nerves
-
Returning motion to the spinal joints
Cox® Technic is appropriate for conditions causing low back and leg pain as well as neck and arm pain. It also reduces pain attributable to:
-
Disc herniation/a slipped disc/ a ruptured disc
-
Sciatica
-
Stenosis
-
Spondylolisthesis
Cox® Technic is a well-researched, well-documented and proven effective technique for decompressing spinal nerves and treating back and neck pain. It is a gentle, non-surgical, low-force procedure which helps the spine heal properly – and keeps it as pain free as possible.
Evidence-based protocols are tested in laboratory trials and clinical trials supported by privately funded, clinician-volunteer, and federally funded research grants through the United States National Institutes for Health (NIH) and Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) to name a few.
These evidence-based protocols are well-defined in medically published textbooks and peer-reviewed journal articles. You may visit the official website of Cox® Technic to know more about this evidence based chiropractic care and it’s related research and publications.
