Stenosis. If you are a bit older, you probably
are familiar with spinal stenosis. You experienced its painful
effects yourself or someone near you does. Spinal
stenosis gives rise to back pain, neck pain, arm pain
and/or leg pain (sciatica). It’s no fun!
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, Tonawanda
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
ideas, and the knowledge that Tonawanda
chiropractic care at Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation 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 showed
that flexion distraction spinal manipulation was more effective
for pain decrease and disability recovery. (2)
Another study presented that Cox® flexion distraction manipulation
brought about pain improvement by 76% and disability by 73%.
(3) Today, one of the newest published papers
points out that there is evidence that
chiropractic care is potentially beneficial for
patients enduring pain due to lumbar
spinal stenosis. It additionally stresses
that chiropractic treatments of spinal stenosis are most often
flexion-distraction manipulation. (4) That’s true at
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation! Tonawanda spinal stenosis patients get
relief with our Tonawanda chiropractic services.
FLEXION DISTRACTION FOR STENOSIS-RELATED NEUROGENIC
CLAUDICATION
Neurogenic claudication often comes
with lumbar spinal stenosis, producing cramping leg pain for
its Tonawanda sufferers. Researchers found 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)
Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation follows a similar chiropractic care system with
our Tonawanda spinal stenosis patients. Chiropractic Spine Sports And Rehabilitation treats the
whole patient, not just the pain.
