There is growing evidence for the idea that in back pain patients, pain-related fear (fear of pain/physical activity/(re)injury) may be more disabling than pain itself. A number of questionnaires have been developed to quantify pain-related fears, including Fear-Avoidance Beliefs Questionnaires (FABQ), the Tampa Scale for Kinesophobia (TSK), and the Pain Anxiety Symptoms Scale (PASS). A total of 104 patients, presenting to a rehabilitation center or a comprehensive pain clinic with chronic low back pain were studied in three independent studies aimed at (1) replicating that pain-related fear is more disabling than pain itself, (2) investigating the association between pain-related fear and poor behavioral performance and (3) investigating whether pain-related fear measures are better predictors of disability and behavioral performance than measures of general negative affect or general negative pain beliefs (e.g., pain catastrophizing). All three studies showed similar results. Highest correlations were found among the pain-related fear measures and measures of self-reported subscales of the FABQ and the TSK were superior in predicting self-reported disability and poor behavioral performance. The PASS appeared more strongly associated with pain catastrophizing and negative affect, and was less predictive of pain disability and behavioral performance. Implications for chronic back pain assessment, prevention and treatment are discussed.

        Catastrophic thinking might be a precursor of pain-related fear.

Chiro-Manis® is a clearing house for information regarding Cox® Distraction Manipulation:



Company Beginnings:
Started by James M. Cox, DC, DACBR, in the mid-1970's, Chiro-Manis®, Inc., originally was a manipulation table manufacturing company. In 1984, Dr. Cox joined Williams Health Care Systems, manufacturer of Zenith® manipulation tables, to perfect the design and distribution of the "instrument" -- the Zenith®-Cox® Distraction Table. After that, Chiro-Manis®, Inc., changed focus to that of a support company for doctors using Cox® Distraction.

Dr. Cox now consults with Williams in the design and update of the instrument as new research evolves in the literature as well as from the Loyola University Stritch School of Medicine/National College of Chiropractic research project's new insights into just what Cox® Distraction Manipulation does and how it might be improved via table modifications.
