The Science-Backed Solution for Oxford Chronic Neck Pain

October 07, 2025

If you're one of the multitude dealing with Oxford neck pain, you know how it can disrupt your entire day. Simple chores like turning to check your blind spot while driving or settlilng into your desk become exercises in discomfort. What’s the good from this? There is a gentle, research-[[documentedlbacked]16] solution that might be exactly what you need.

WHAT MAKES COX® TECHNIC DIFFERENT?

Cox® Flexion-Distraction is a unique chiropractic approach that uses a specially designed table to easily stretch and decompress your spine. Unlike the "crack and pop" adjustments you may envision, this technique is very gentle—think therapeutic stretching rather than more aggressive manipulation.

The evidence speaks for itself. In a published case study, a 64-year-old man dealing with a cervical disc herniation with left foraminal narrowing received Cox® cervical spine flexion-distraction treatment. After just 12 visits over four weeks, he experienced a 90% reduction in pain intensity and significant improvements in neck motion and daily function. Even more imposing? These gains were maintained at his three-month follow-up. (1) Satterwhite Chiropractic aims to help you get this kind of improvement.

THE SAFETY QUESTION

Perhaps you are wondering about safety—especially if you're over 60. A comprehensive 2025 observational study analyzed over 4,700 older adults with neck pain, comparing those who received chiropractic care versus traditional medical management. The researchers tracked staid adverse events necessitating hospitalization and revealed no significant difference in safety between the two approaches. In fact, both groups had comparably low rates of complications, confirming that chiropractic care is a safe option for managing neck pain, even in older populations. (2)

DOES MANIPULATION REALLY WORK?

A new randomized controlled trial put spinal manipulation to the test with 144 patients experiencing neck pain. Participants who got cervical and thoracic manipulations demonstrated statistically significant improvements in pain levels and disability scores compared to baseline measurements. While the study discovered that diverse manipulation methods were similarly helpful, the big takeaway is clear: spinal manipulation delivers real, measurable relief for neck pain sufferers. (3) Oxford relief like this may be yours with our Oxford chiropractic  care.
