* DEFINITION *
Cox® Distraction Manipulation is the
chiropractic approach to treating low back and neck pain due to stenosis, spondylolisthesis, subluxation, sprain/strain, tropism, facet syndrome, transitional segment, discogenic spondyloarthrosis, disc herniation, etc.,
without surgery OR drugs!
Definition: Dr. Cox explains Cox® Technique as a marriage of chiropractic principles with osteopathic principles set forth by Alan Stoddard, DO, in his book, Osteopathic Technique, written about the manipulative procedures developed by John McManis, DC, in the early 1900's. Since the early 1970's, Dr. Cox has refined the technique, developed a manipulation instrument for effective use of the technique, conducted clinical as well as participated in experimental research, lectured around the world, and written well-received articles, chapters for textbooks, and textbooks.
Cox® Distraction Manipulation creates a "push, pull, pumping" effect on the intervertebral disc space and allows the following benefits:
allows the
nucleus pulposus (A) inside the disc to assume its central position within the anular fibers and relieve irritations on the spinal nerve (B) caused by swelling increases the intervertebral disc height (C) to remove tension on the anular fibers and nerve (B) by making more room and improving circulation restores vertebral joints (D) to their physiological relationships of motion (re-aligns the spine) improves posture and movement while relieving pain, improving bodily functions, and creating a state of well-being
