Cox Technic
Cox Technic is a gentle, non-force chiropractic technique using a specialized table to decompress spinal discs and relieve nerve pressure. This FDA-cleared method treats herniated discs, sciatica, and spinal stenosis through controlled distraction and flexion movements. Clinical studies demonstrate its effectiveness in reducing pain and improving mobility without surgery.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves precise needle placement at meridian points to stimulate healing and reduce inflammation. This evidence-based therapy complements chiropractic care for chronic pain, migraines, and musculoskeletal conditions. Sterile, single-use needles ensure safety while promoting natural pain relief through endorphin release.
Electrotherapy
Electrotherapy delivers controlled electrical currents to reduce pain and muscle spasms. Galvanic stimulation decreases inflammation while interferential therapy penetrates deep tissues for chronic pain management. This modality accelerates recovery by improving circulation and blocking pain signals to the brain.
Hot/Cold Therapy
Contrast therapy alternates heat and ice applications to reduce inflammation and muscle tension. Heat relaxes soft tissues while cold therapy numbs acute pain, following a 10-10-10 minute protocol for optimal results. This home-care technique complements in-office treatments for sustained pain relief.
Patient Education
Personalized education sessions teach proper posture, ergonomics, and therapeutic exercises. Patients learn disc nutrition principles, core stabilization techniques, and injury prevention strategies to maintain spinal health between adjustments and prevent recurrence.
