Gentle with Flexion-Distraction
Cox Flexion or spinal manipulation is a widely used chiropractic technique designed to improve spinal alignment, joint mobility, and nervous system function. Through precise, controlled thrusts applied to specific vertebrae, this hands-on approach helps to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and restore proper range of motion. It’s commonly used to treat conditions like back pain, neck stiffness, headaches, and sciatica. By correcting spinal misalignments, spinal manipulation not only alleviates discomfort but also supports the body’s natural ability to heal and function optimally—without the need for medication or invasive procedures.
- Reduces disc pressure: Creates space for healing.
- Increases spinal motion: Improves flexibility and reduces stiffness.
- Non-surgical: A gentle alternative to invasive procedures.
A Powerful Combination
Cold laser therapy is a safe, non-invasive treatment used by chiropractors to help reduce pain, inflammation, and accelerate healing. It uses low-level light energy to penetrate deep into tissues, stimulating cellular repair and improving blood flow. This therapy is especially effective for treating joint pain, soft tissue injuries, muscle strains, and chronic inflammation—offering a gentle, drug-free solution to support recovery and overall wellness.
- Cold Laser Therapy: Reduces inflammation and promotes tissue repair.
- Complementary Care: Enhances the effectiveness of other treatments.
