Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn Treats Back, Neck, Arm and Leg Pain
What treatment considerations should you think about for your spine and/or extremity pain, your back and leg pain, your neck and arm pain? When you suffer these conditions, this question is forefront in your mind. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn presents the well-documented, non-surgical, safe and gentle Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as an answer to that question.
BACK SURGERY
First, let us consider back surgery. Less than 1% of people with low back, neck, and/or leg and arm pain undergo spine surgery. (1,2) That means 99% of people with back and extremity pain will be treated non-surgically. This type of care is the forte of your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn. What is the potential of such non-surgical treatment as Cox® Distraction Spine Manipulation to help you?
THE COX® FLEXION DISTRACTION OPTION
Flexion distraction spine manipulation is reported to be a good intervention for treating disc height loss in disc herniation patients. (3) Another study found 50% pain relief after distraction spine manipulation in patients with low back pain. (4) Cox® distraction combined with therapeutic modalities over a month for patients with lumbar disc herniation gave significant improvement in muscle strength, disability, and relief of sciatica. The whole treatment entailed 18 visits over a 4-week period of care. Cox® distraction manipulation appears to be a safe and effective non-invasive treatment for patients with lumbar disc herniation. (5) Safety is always forefront of care at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn.
SAFETY OF COX® TECHNIC
The study of safety of spine manipulation shows that chiropractic students learn correct delivery of force in delivering Cox® manipulation to patients. (6) Similar to a patient seeking surgical treatment for spine pain wants the best surgeon, studies confirm that patients with an elevated likelihood of having surgery are optimally partnered with a non-surgical spine specialist. (7) Certified Cox® practitioners like your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn are trained and then examined by written and hands-on testing before being certified in Cox® distraction manipulation.
CLINICAL EXAM IMPORTANT IN THE COX® TECHNIC SYSTEM
Finally, understand that the clinical examination of your spine is equally as and even more valuable than any MRI findings. (8) Cox® certified doctors of chiropractic like your Ashburn and Herndon chiropractor at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn are well-versed and examined in the neuro and ortho indicators of spine and extremity pain patients. The detailed clinical examination determines the treatment plan for your wanted pain relief.
