Pain Relief with Manahawkin Chiropractic Care: Cox
Technic
Manahawkin Chiropractic Center incorporates Cox Technic into the
Manahawkin treatment plan forManahawkin back pain relief. Cox Technic
research demonstrates a 17% increase in disc height as
well as a 28% increase in area and a decrease
in intradiscal pressures to as low as a -192 mmHg.
(1) Traction effectively raises the disc height of lower
lumbar spine discs.
(2) Manahawkin Chiropractic Center recognizes the good of this
increase.
And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used
in this Manahawkin chiropractic practice) diminishes
neuropathic pain, pain that spreads into the legs that often comes
with low back pain. Neuropathic pain with low
back pain is a pain! The good news is that non-thrust,
non-drug spinal manipulation like Cox Technic is often
used to reduce 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 compared to those without leg pain. Great news! A
new rat study reaffirms that using Cox
Technic delivers short-term pain-relief like that in human clinical studies. (3) That is why Manahawkin Chiropractic Center uses it with our Manahawkin back pain patients!
Further, spinal manipulation influences
pain regulators in the nervous system like substance-p, neurotensin, and oxytocin
along with interleukin and cortisol (“the stress
hormone”) levels after treatment. (4) That is a goal of Manahawkin
chiropractic treatment: to calm the nervous system
when it’s distressed by pain.

Manahawkin Chiropractic Tip of the Month: Take Calcium
“You Need It. I don’t.”
Curious how recommendations are
always for someone else! A Canadian study reported
that, when asked, young adults knew that
calcium is essential for kids and older adults but not
how critical it was for them. (5) Calcium is essential
for all ages! Your Manahawkin chiropractor is ready to discuss
just how valuable it is for you.
We look forward to your next Manahawkin visit soon at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center!
