Pain Relief with Auburn Chiropractic Care: Cox Technic

Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. incorporates Cox Technic into the Auburn treatment plan forAuburn back pain relief. Cox Technic research shows a 17% increase in disc height in addition to the 28% increase in area and a drop in intradiscal pressures to as low as a -192 mmHg. (1) Traction effectively raises the disc height of lower lumbar spine discs. (2) Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. recognizes the good of this increase.

And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used in this Auburn chiropractic practice) relieves neuropathic pain, pain that goes into the legs that often accompanies low back pain. Neuropathic pain joining low back pain is a pain! The good news is that non-thrust, non-drug spinal manipulation like Cox Technic is regularly utilized to control low back pain. Just one month of Cox Technic, a form of chiropractic spinal manipulation, alleviates pain in chronic low back pain patients with leg pain contrasted with those without leg pain. Fantastic news! A new rat study confirms that using Cox Technic delivers short-term pain-relief similar to that in human clinical studies. (3) That’s the reason Dr. Le's Chiropractic & Wellness, L.L.C. uses it with our Auburn 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 is a goal of Auburn chiropractic treatment: to quieten the nervous system when it is upset by pain.
