Pain Relief with Largo Chiropractic Care: Cox
Technic
Hollstrom & Associates Inc incorporates Cox Technic into the
Largo treatment plan forLargo back pain relief. Cox Technic
research shows a 17% increase in disc height in addition to the 28% increase in area and a lowering of intradiscal pressures to as low as a -192 mmHg.
(1) Traction effectively increases the disc height of lower
lumbar spine discs.
(2) Hollstrom & Associates Inc recognizes the good of this
increase.
And flexion distraction (aka Cox Technic, distraction manipulation as used
in this Largo chiropractic practice) eases
neuropathic pain, pain that extends into the legs that often comes
with low back pain. Neuropathic pain joining low
back pain is a pain! The good news is that non-thrust,
non-drug spinal manipulation like Cox Technic is often
used to control low back pain. Just one
month of Cox Technic, a form of chiropractic spinal manipulation, relieves
pain in chronic low back pain patients with leg pain compared to those without leg pain. Fantastic news! A
new rat study confirms that using Cox
Technic produces short-term pain-relief akin to that in human clinical studies. (3) That is why Hollstrom & Associates Inc uses it with our Largo back pain patients!
Further, spinal manipulation influences
pain regulators in the nervous system like substance-p, neurotensin, and oxytocin
along with interleukin and cortisol (“the stress
hormone”) levels after treatment. (4) That is a goal of Largo
chiropractic treatment: to soother the nervous system
when it’s affected by pain.

Largo Chiropractic Tip of the Month: Take Calcium
“You Need It. I don’t.”
Curious how recommendations are
always for somebody else! A Canadian study reported
that, when questioned, young adults recognized that
calcium is critical for kids and older adults but not
how essential it was for them. (5) Calcium is important
for all ages! Your Largo chiropractor is ready to talk
just how important it is for you.
We look forward to seeing
you soon at Hollstrom & Associates Inc!
