Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc Offers the World-Studied Cox® Technic Here in Fort Wayne for Back Pain Relief
At Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc, our Fort Wayne chiropractic patients get cutting-edge spinal care in the form of Cox® Technic, known, researched and helpful for back pain. Cox® Technic is truly around the world…and right here in Fort Wayne! In this piece, you will see studies from Spain, Korea, Japan, and the US regarding Cox® Technic and how it eases back pain.
SPAIN: 50% AND SUPERIOR CLINICAL OUTCOMES
A recent research paper by researchers and physiotherapists in Spain describes how patients treated with flexion distraction spinal manipulation reach at least 50% improvement. Further, flexion distraction outcomes are superior to high velocity low amplitude thrust technique outcomes. (1) A note on this 50% improvement marker: Cox® Technic protocols seek at least 50% improvement within the first month of care for most spine pain conditions at which time (a) visit frequency is reduced by 50% and (b) treatment would now include some range of motion treatment to spinal segments. And if you say “Well, 50% doesn’t seem like that much.” Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc must remind you that medicine now considers 30% and even 20% improvement as “minimal clinical improvement” to declare a medical procedure like spine surgery worthwhile to do. (2, 3) Compared to those markers for a practice to be medically beneficial, Cox® Technic’s 50% Rule guide and attainment is remarkable! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc finds that many of our patients get even greater improvement: 60%, 70%, 80%, 90% and higher. All cases and patients vary and have their own distinctive issues, but the clinical outcomes are satisfactory for Fort Wayne back pain sufferers who really want to get back to a pleasing quality of life.
JAPAN & US: TRACTION AND COX® TECHNIC
Traction is effective treatment…for some and when it is applied to the right type of patient. 83.2% of patients did in a Japanese study. These researchers presented that lumbar traction can provide a distractive force and that patients showed an immediate response to it. They also acknowledged that traction research lacks reproducibility, biomechanical confirmation, and clinical validation of its effectiveness. (4) Cox Technic can display researched effects. Cox® Technic biomechanical studies documented that the lumbar spine disc pressures drop to as low as -192mmHg, the lumbar canal area increases by 28%, the disc height increases by 17%, and ranges of motion can be returned to specific spinal segments. (5) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc offers that Cox® Technic is well-researched, segment specific spinal manipulation with predictable clinical outcomes.
KOREA: COX® TECHNIC POSITIVELY IMPACTS THE SPINE
And in Korea, researchers discovered that disc heights significantly increased in chronic low back pain patients treated with joint mobilization and flexion distraction techniques. How does this happen? They explained that this treatment produced negative pressure in the disc space to pull the moved disc content back to the center and got rid of painful stimuli from the annular fibers to reduce pain. (6) Just what Gudavalli et al found in their biomechanical research of the effects of Cox® Technic flexion distraction on the lumbar spine in the 1990’s! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc talks about these biomechanical effects with our Fort Wayne back pain patients daily. It is important to have science behind what we do.

Listen to this PODCAST with Ram Gudavalli, PhD, on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr. Michael Johnson. Dr. Gudavalli is the principle investigator who has managed much of the biomechanical and clinical research studies – retrospective, prospective and experimental with cadavers – into the effects of Cox Technic flexion distraction. He, too, adds to the world-wide flare of Cox® Technic as he came here from India! We are so glad he did.
