Cox Flexion Distraction Decompression is a well-documented, researched, proven effective, non-surgical technique for treating low back, mid back and neck pain. This technique is a gentle, low-force procedure that works with the body’s natural design to aid it in healing properly. There will be no popping, clicking, snapping of the neck or other areas of the spine that are often associated with more standard form of chiropractic techniques. The Cox procedures encourage a pain-free future by educating the patient about ergonomics, strengthening exercise, and lifestyle modification.
During a treatment on this instrument, you will lie on your stomach while Dr. Taylor gently manipulates
your spine to relieve nerve pressure. She may use the instrument’s moveable sections to allow gentle,
