Suffering from lower back, buttock, or perhaps leg pain and you've been told its source is degenerative disc disease? In Fort Wayne, Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc treats patients similar to you the entire day, every day in clinical practice. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc offers relief of degenerative disc disease pain under chiropractic treatment is based on the following data.

Degenerative Disc Disease Changes How You Move

When a disc degenerates, it alters the normal motion and movements of the lower back or neck. Do you find that you cannot move your spine as smoothly and completely when you have lower back pain?

Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc looks at this issue this way. Spinal motion occurs at certain joints called facet joints. The intervertebral disc is in front of these joints.

A normal disc accepts 90% of the weight bearing of the entire body when we stand, sit or move the spine.

A degenerative disc (one that has lost its flexibility and shrunk in size) forces the facet joints to carry much more than the 10% they normally do.

Under such compressive pressure, the facets become painful and lose their usual movements. You don't move like you used to.

Degenerative disc disease changes normal motion of your spine. (1) Patients with disc degeneration show unusual motion in certain areas of the spine like...

More side bending movement.
Less rotation in the upper part of the low back when bending forward and backward at the waist.
More twisting and rotation in the lower part of the low back.

Such increased rotational motion at the point of the spine where degenerative disc disease occurs also causes neighboring areas of the spine to degenerate as well. This is the nature of the beast - degenerative disc disease continually worsens and spreads if not given proper attention.

Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc has a plan to slow down degeneration, end pain and return motion.
