Stenosis. If you are a bit older, you probably
are familiar with spinal stenosis. You experienced its hurting
results yourself or someone close to you does. Spinal
stenosis results in back pain, neck pain, arm pain
and/or leg pain (sciatica). It is no fun!
No magic pill cures it or prevents it. But chiropractic
care using the gentle Cox® Technic flexion distraction
spinal manipulation system may relieve it, slowly
and steadily. Once on the other side of spinal stenosis’
pain, Oxford
chiropractic patients are more fully equipped to do what
they can to reduce the chances of future incidents,
armed with exercises, diet tips, daily activities’ modification
ideas, and the knowledge that Oxford
chiropractic care at Satterwhite Chiropractic 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, discussed stenosis. (1) Lately, 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 decrease and disability recovery. (2)
Another study presented that Cox® flexion distraction manipulation
resulted in pain improvement by 76% and disability by 73%.
(3) Today, one of the newest published reports
points out that there is indication that
chiropractic care is possibly useful for
patients experiencing pain of lumbar
spinal stenosis. It additionally emphasizes
that chiropractic treatments of spinal stenosis are most often
flexion-distraction manipulation. (4) That is true at
Satterwhite Chiropractic! Oxford spinal stenosis patients get
reprieve with our Oxford chiropractic services.
FLEXION DISTRACTION FOR STENOSIS-RELATED NEUROGENIC
CLAUDICATION
Neurogenic claudication often accompanies lumbar spinal stenosis, causing cramping leg pain for
its Oxford sufferers. Researchers found that twice
a week treatment consisting
of 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 lead to improved consequences
(pain, disability, walking ability, treatment satisfaction). (5)
Satterwhite Chiropractic offers a similar chiropractic care system with
our Oxford spinal stenosis patients. Satterwhite Chiropractic treats the
whole person, not just the pain.
