Pain Relief with Murfreesboro Chiropractic Care: Cox Technic

Most Chiropractic Clinic incorporates Cox Technic into the Murfreesboro treatment plan forMurfreesboro back pain relief. Cox Technic research shows a 17% increase in disc height in addition to the 28% increase in area and a lowering of intradiscal pressures to as low as a -192 mmHg. (1) Traction effectively increases the disc height of lower lumbar spine discs. (2) Most Chiropractic Clinic recognizes the good of this increase.

And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used in this Murfreesboro chiropractic practice) relieves neuropathic pain, pain that spreads into the legs that often comes with low back pain. Neuropathic pain coming with low back pain is a pain! The fortunate thing is that non-thrust, non-drug spinal manipulation like Cox Technic is regularly used to reduce low back pain. Just one month of Cox Technic, a form of chiropractic spinal manipulation, lessens pain in chronic low back pain patients with leg pain compared to those without leg pain. Fantastic news! A new rat study reaffirms that using Cox Technic offers short-term pain-relief similar to that in human clinical studies. (3) That is why Most Chiropractic Clinic chooses to use it with our Murfreesboro back pain patients!

Further, spinal manipulation affects pain regulators in the nervous system like substance-p, neurotensin, and oxytocin as well as interleukin and cortisol (“the stress hormone”) levels after treatment. (4) That’s a goal of Murfreesboro chiropractic treatment: to soother the nervous system when it’s distressed by pain.

Murfreesboro Chiropractic Tip of the Month: Take Calcium
“You Need It. I don’t.”

Curious how recommendations are always for somebody else! A Canadian study reported that, when questioned, young adults knew that calcium is important for kids and older adults but not how important it was for them. (5) Calcium is essential for all ages! Your Murfreesboro chiropractor is ready to talk just how valuable it is for you.

We look forward to seeing you soon at Most Chiropractic Clinic!
