Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc Relieves Chronic Neck and Back Pain

February 02, 2021

“How many times do I have to see you, doc?” A common question for your Fort Wayne chiropractor. Chiropractic care at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc follows an evidence-based algorithm of care backed by clinical research that goes back to the 1970’s: The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management. Recent research bears out the system and its goals in which Fort Wayne chiropractic patients can find calm as they heal.

CHIROPRACTIC USE

Fort Wayne chiropractic patients wouldn’t be chiropractic patients if it didn’t help. The latest study of who uses chiropractic was conducted in Malaysia: 35% of Malayasians utilized chiropractic. Though it was very lower than traditional and complementary medicine care usage there, it is a good number! (1) About 25% of U.S. residents sought chiropractic for neck and back pain care. 35 million U.S. adults saw a chiropractor in the past year. (2) That number is growing as more people seek and find a non-surgical, conservative approach to pain relief in chiropractic knowing that it may take a few visits to obtain results. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is committed to setting a realistic treatment plan for optimal outcome.

RECENT RESEARCH RESULTS OF CHIROPRACTIC CARE AT 3 MONTHS

Wondering how many chiropractic visits patients use and the outcomes? A recent study reported that in 1,362 chronic low back pain patients and 1,214 chronic neck pain patients’ function improved and back and neck pain reduced with chiropractic care in 90 days. Those who reported worse pain at first had more chiropractic visits. Chronic low back pain sufferers who went to the chiropractor more than once a week benefitted more. At 3 months, chronic back and neck pain patients were getting better slowly, may have even reached maximum improvement, and were potentially managing their chronic pain using a range of chiropractic visit frequencies. (3) That’s our goal, too, at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc: educate our Fort Wayne back pain and neck pain patients about how they can support themselves with pain management and prevention! With Cox® Technic, a study of 1000 patients found that 29 days and 12 visits were the mean days and visits for improvement. Disc herniations did take a bit longer and required more visits than sprain/strains. (4) Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc presents statistics like this to help our chiropractic patients make realistic expectations.

REALISTIC EXPECTATIONS WITH CHIROPRACTIC CARE

Fort Wayne chronic neck and back pain sufferers are realistic. Despite health policy today that seems to pursue a cure for whatever ails, most chronic spine pain patients want pain management that they understand will require ongoing care rather than “cure” from their chiropractic care. (5) Cox® Technic used at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc has always shared the notion of “control not cure” when it comes to most neck pain and back pain issues. It resonates with neck pain and back pain sufferers who have looked for care from a variety of different healthcare professionals that they “get” it. The 50% Rule of Cox® Technic makes sense to them: 50% relief in 30 days or referral for imaging or other consultation, 50% relief reduces the visit frequency by 50%, 50% relief changes the treatment from Protocol I to Protocol II, etc. The chiropractic care system of Cox® Technic follows an established algorithm that gives patients realistic expectations.
