What's In a Name: Cox-Flexion Distraction

Sometimes, complicated names are used to describe simple procedures. That's the case with Cox-Flexion Distraction. Although it sounds ominous, it is actually a sound chiropractic treatment protocol that can bring immediate relief when you feel the need to "stretch" your lower back.

Restoring Spinal Form and Function

Human backs take a lot of beating from the habits and stresses of modern life, whether you are extremely active or you sit at a desk all day. Particularly, if you are sedentary, your lower back can be squeezed into an uncomfortable "posture." Standing for long periods of time, improper sudden movement, "sleeping wrong", and minor mishaps can all be the cause of that heavy, tight, compressed sensation that many people experience. It can take the spring from your step and the smile from your face.

It is then that you might think of calling our chiropractor to ask about the value of Cox-Flexion Distraction. Many of our clients have found immediate relief, and the procedure takes only a few minutes at DiSabatino Chiropractic & Rehab, Inc., located in San Diego. This is just one of the forms of gentle, non-invasive treatment we offer for common "aching back" complaints. Spinal adjustments, including the proprietary active release therapy are employed to relieve pain and restore proper function so that patients are quickly able to return to normal activity.

It is our goal to work with all of our clients to prevent further spinal problems, to address the issues that lead to pain, and to enhance total quality of life and instill lasting well-being. The personalized therapy we offer is predicated on the belief that your body has the ability to respond and restore normal function without drugs or surgery.

Chiropractic therapy can relieve minor discomfort through Cox-Flexion Distraction or address extensive spinal injury with an individualized regimen of therapy, including exercises you can perform at home.
