What treatment considerations should you think about for your spine and/or extremity pain, your back
and leg pain, your neck and arm pain? When you experience these
conditions, this question is top of mind.
Hollstrom & Associates Inc uses 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’s consider back
surgery. Less than 1% of people with low back, neck, and/or leg and arm pain have
spine surgery. (1,2) That leaves 99% of people with back and extremity
pain to be treated
non-surgically. This kind of care is the forte of your
Largo chiropractor at Hollstrom & Associates Inc. 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 described as a good intervention for enhancing disc
height loss in disc herniation patients. (3) Another study found
50% pain relief following distraction spine manipulation in
patients with low back pain. (4) Cox® distraction mixed with
therapeutic modalities over a 4-week treatment period for patients
with lumbar disc herniation gave significant improvement in
muscle strength, disability, and relief of sciatica. The entire
treatment consisted of 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 always leads
care at Hollstrom & Associates Inc.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The study of safety of spine manipulation shows
that chiropractic students learn proper delivery
of force in giving Cox® manipulation to patients. (6) Just as a patient seeking surgical treatment for spine
pain seeks the best surgeon, studies confirm
that patients with a high likelihood
of undergoing surgery are optimally partnered
with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® chiropractors
like your Largo chiropractor at Hollstrom & Associates Inc are trained and then
examined by written and hands-on testing prior to being
certified in Cox® distraction manipulation.
CLINICAL EXAM IMPORTANT IN THE COX® TECHNIC SYSTEM
Last of all, be informed
that the clinical examination of your spine is just as and even
more important than any MRI findings. (8) Cox® certified doctors
of chiropractic like your Largo chiropractor at Hollstrom & Associates Inc are
most learned and examined in the neuro
and ortho findings of spine
and extremity pain patients. The extensive clinical examination
establishes the treatment path to your wanted
pain relief.
