COX® TECHNIC FOR SPINAL STENOSIS
One of the original 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 showed that flexion distraction spinal manipulation was more effective for pain reduction and disability recovery. (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 reports indicates that there is indication that chiropractic care is possibly beneficial for patients experiencing pain of lumbar spinal stenosis.
