Stenosis. If you are of a certain age, you probably
know spinal stenosis. You have felt its hurting
results 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 stops it. But chiropractic
care using the gentle Cox® Technic flexion distraction
spinal manipulation system may ease it, gradually
and steadily. Once on the other side of spinal stenosis’
pain, New Roads
chiropractic patients are more fully equipped to do what
they can to decrease the chances of future episodes,
prepared with exercises, diet tips, daily activities’ alteration
ideas, and the knowledge that New Roads
chiropractic care at New Roads Chiropractic Center is effective.
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) 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 showed that Cox® flexion distraction manipulation
resulted in pain improvement by 76% and disability by 73%.
(3) Today, one of the most recent published reports
points out that there is indication that
chiropractic care is potentially useful for
patients enduring pain due to lumbar
spinal stenosis. It further emphasizes
that chiropractic treatments of spinal stenosis are most often
flexion-distraction manipulation. (4) That is true at
New Roads Chiropractic Center! New Roads spinal stenosis patients obtain
relief with our New Roads chiropractic services.
FLEXION DISTRACTION FOR STENOSIS-RELATED NEUROGENIC
CLAUDICATION
Neurogenic claudication frequently comes
with lumbar spinal stenosis, causing cramping leg pain for
its New Roads sufferers. Researchers found that treatments two times a week 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 as well
as structured home-based exercises, and instruction of self-management
strategies lead to improved outcomes
(pain, disability, walking ability, treatment satisfaction). (5)
New Roads Chiropractic Center follows a similar chiropractic care system with
our New Roads spinal stenosis patients. New Roads Chiropractic Center treats the
whole patient, not just the pain.
