After undergoing a thorough examination that leads the doctor to a specific diagnosis of the spine condition to be treated.
- The patient lies face down on a Cox Table.
- Tolerance testing is performed prior to the application of Cox Technique to ensure that the treatment will not further aggravate the condition.
- In delivering the treatment, the physician concentrates on one vertebral motion segment at a time.
The goal is to reduce stenotic effects by dropping intradiscal pressure, thus allowing disc reduction, an increase in the size of the intervertebral foramen, and a reduction of pressure on the dorsal root ganglion and the exiting nerve roots.
