Pain Relief with Manahawkin Chiropractic Care: Cox Technic

And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used in this Manahawkin chiropractic practice) relieves neuropathic pain, pain that spreads 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 often utilized 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. Great news! A new study with rats reaffirms that using Cox Technic produces short-term pain-relief akin to that in human clinical studies. (3) That’s the reason Manahawkin Chiropractic Center uses it with our Manahawkin back pain patients!

Also, spinal manipulation influences 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’s a goal of Manahawkin chiropractic treatment: to soother the nervous system when it is affected by pain.
