Stenosis. If you are of a certain age, you probably
are familiar with spinal stenosis. You have felt its painful
results yourself or someone close to you does. Spinal
stenosis causes back pain, neck pain, arm pain
and/or leg pain (sciatica). It’s not much fun at all!
No magic pill heals it or prevents it. But chiropractic
care incorporating the gentle Cox® Technic flexion distraction
spinal manipulation system may relieve it, gradually
and steadily. Once on the other side of spinal stenosis’
pain, Ashburn
chiropractic patients are well educated as to do what
they can to decrease the chances of future incidents,
prepared with exercises, diet tips, daily activities’ alteration
tips, and the knowledge that Ashburn
chiropractic care at Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn can help.
COX® TECHNIC FOR SPINAL STENOSIS
One of the first ever written and peer-review
published papers by Dr. Cox, developer of Cox® Technic flexion distraction, was
about stenosis. (1) More recently, a comparison study of flexion distraction treatment to
conservative treatment for patients with spinal stenosis revealed
that flexion distraction spinal manipulation was more valuable
for pain reduction and disability improvement. (2)
Another study showed that Cox® flexion distraction manipulation
brought about pain improvement by 76% and disability by 73%.
(3) Today, one of the newest published papers
indicates that there is indication that
chiropractic care is potentially beneficial for
patients experiencing pain of lumbar
spinal stenosis. It additionally stresses
that chiropractic treatments of spinal stenosis are most often
flexion-distraction manipulation. (4) That’s true at
Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn! Ashburn spinal stenosis patients obtain
relief with our Ashburn chiropractic services.
FLEXION DISTRACTION FOR STENOSIS-RELATED NEUROGENIC
CLAUDICATION
Neurogenic claudication frequently comes
with lumbar spinal stenosis, producing cramping leg pain for
its Ashburn sufferers. Researchers discovered that treatments two times a week including manual therapy like lumbar spine flexion distraction (generic term for
Cox® Technic spinal manipulation), soft tissue and neural mobilization,
chiropractic spinal manipulation, and muscle stretching along with structured home-based exercises, and instruction of self-management
strategies resulted in improved outcomes
(pain, disability, walking ability, treatment satisfaction). (5)
Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn follows a similar chiropractic care system with
our Ashburn spinal stenosis patients. Poulin Chiropractic of Herndon and Ashburn treats the
whole person, not just the pain.
