Layden 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 have these conditions, this question is forefront in your mind. Layden Chiropractic 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 consider 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 strength of your Plainville chiropractor at Layden Chiropractic. What is the potential 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 enhancing 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 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 Layden Chiropractic.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The study of safety of spine manipulation explains that chiropractic students learn proper delivery of force in delivering Cox® manipulation to patients. (6) Similar to a patient looking for surgical treatment for spine pain seeks the best surgeon, studies verify that patients with a high likelihood of having surgery are best partnered with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® chiropractors like your Plainville chiropractor at Layden 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
Finally, understand that the clinical examination of your spine is equally as and even more valuable than any MRI findings. (8) Cox® certified doctors of chiropractic like your Plainville chiropractor at Layden Chiropractic are well-versed and tested in the orthopedic and neurological indicators of spine and extremity pain patients. The detailed clinical examination establishes the treatment plan for your desired pain relief.
