COX TECHNIQUE

What is Cox Technique®?

Cox Decompression Treatments

Cox therapy claims to decrease interdiscal pressure and increase the foraminal openings between vertebrae. During Cox Decompression Therapy, the doctor will control all the movements of the machine manually and will maintain touch contact with your body to concentrate treatment on the area which needs attention. The machine moves slowly and gently in a specific path and has a variety of motions available to the care provider to treat virtually any area of the spine. Cox Decompression is time tested and well tolerated. Cox is generally less expensive than other computerized forms of spinal decompression and might suit the needs of some patients better than these less personal approaches. If you suffer from a disc pain or foraminal stenosis condition, spinal decompression is probably the very best physical treatment option available to you. Best of all, all forms of noninvasive decompression therapy allow the patient a much needed alternative to back surgery.
