Pain Relief with Severna Park Chiropractic Care: Cox Technic

Back And Neck Care Center incorporates Cox Technic into the Severna Park treatment plan forSeverna Park back pain relief. Cox Technic research shows a 17% increase in disc height in addition to the 28% increase in area and a decrease in intradiscal pressures to as low as a -192 mmHg. (1) Traction effectively increases the disc height of lower lumbar spine discs. (2) Back And Neck Care Center recognizes the good of this increase.

And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used in this Severna Park chiropractic practice) diminishes neuropathic pain, pain that goes into the legs that often comes with low back pain. Neuropathic pain joining low back pain is a pain! The fortunate thing is that non-thrust, non-drug spinal manipulation like Cox Technic is regularly used to manage low back pain. Just one month of Cox Technic, a form of chiropractic spinal manipulation, relieves pain in chronic low back pain patients with leg pain contrasted with those without leg pain. Fantastic news! A new study with rats reaffirms that using Cox Technic offers short-term pain-relief like that in human clinical studies. (3) That is why Back And Neck Care Center uses it with our Severna Park back pain patients!

Also, 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 is a goal of Severna Park chiropractic treatment: to soother the nervous system when it is affected by pain.

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

Funny how recommendations are always for someone else! A Canadian study reported that, when asked, young adults knew that calcium is important for kids and older adults but not how essential it was for them. (5) Calcium is key for all ages! Your Severna Park chiropractor is ready to discuss just how valuable it is for you.

We look forward to seeing you soon at Back And Neck Care Center!
