Since the early days of his chiropractic career, Dr. James Cox has studied the nutrition of the disc right alongside all the biomechanical influences and clinical treatment approaches. Nutrition of the disc is important! Building cartilage, reducing inflammation, slowing degeneration and regenerating cartilage are positive outcomes for lower back pain patients. So he developed Discat Plus for his patients as part of the Cox Technic System for Spinal Pain Management.

Discat Plus has glucosamine sulfate plus the minerals found in the disc, but it also uses perna canaliculus as the source for the chondroitin sulfate. Perna Canaliculus is so beneficial! It is reported in the medical literature studies to improve cartilage (like knee and disc) mobility, pain and stiffness. A new report just coming out discusses perna's positive effect on gastrointestinal dysfunction (in 49% of osteoarthritis patients), too! Back and neck pain sufferers benefit as well as osteoarthritis sufferers.

Check out more information, an audio discussion about disc nutrition by Dr. Cox, and more details about the ingredients in Discat Plus to benefit the disc's cartilage alongside the  flexion distraction chiropractic spinal manipulation adjustment!

Cox Technic Flexion Distraction protocols are safe and well-studied, published and ready for duplication and application in your practice as well as scrutiny in the literature. Chiropractic journals offer much to the chiropractic profession to share what it does, the research behind it, the documentation of its results.

Cox Technic for nearly half a century under the influence of Dr. James Cox, its developer, is researched and documented. Chiropractors are encouraged to publish their outcomes with Cox Technic spinal manipulation. Researchers are awarded federal and other grant funds to study the biomechanics and clinical aspects of Cox Technic. Loyola Stritch School of Medicine's Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Laboratory is even involved. 

It's important then to offer an outlet to all physicians to hear first hand the outcomes and published clinical findings as well as experience and finetune the proper application of the evidence-based protocols so that the clinical outcomes may be similar across the board.

So Cox Seminars are the outlets for this sharing of technique and research for clinical application. Join a Cox Seminar in Orlando (March 24-25), Toronto (April 21-22) or Portland ME (May 5-6) to get the support you desire for your chiropractic practice. Taught by clinicians who use Cox Technic day in and day out in their practices and who participate in clinical and federally funded research who talk to you in daily practice language, Cox Seminars are practical, exciting you for your Monday morning practice.

An eye-opening article in the Houston Press reports on the veterans coming home from wars in the Middle East, suffering with back pain and sciatica.

Back packs of 80 and 90 and 100 plus pounds that must be carried by on their backs plus the body armor of 30 to 40 pounds is being discussed as a culprit. Amazing that airport baggage over 50 pounds is considered too heavy and charged a surplus fee. Shipping companies charge extra for heavier loads, too. Military men and women carry these heavy loads daily and jump in and out of vehicles according to this article. No wonder lower back pain and leg pain (sciatica) is an issue.

The Veterans Administration does what it can. It seems that a suggestion was bantered around for a "back pain management clinic" to be added to all VA Hospitals. That didn't happen. Chiropractic is supposed to be available in all the VA Hospitals. It's coming slowly, it seems, but has never been in more demand. Chiropractic's non-surgical and non-drug approach may certainly meet the demand because these veterans don't want to take drugs and have surgery if they don't have to. Cox Technic may be the successful back surgery alternative for them.

Cox Technic is poised ready with certified and otherwise trained physicians to meet the demand for back pain relief for US veterans. A few bases even have Cox Tables and physicians on staff who treat the veterans with back pain, and these docs are busy.

We wish our veterans safety, thank them for their service, and hope more of them get access to chiropractic and even Cox Technic Flexion Distraction Spinal Manipulation care for their back pain.

The red sheets are infamous! We'll always know what is meant by "red sheets" when talking about Cox Exercises, but a new day is dawning. A new, revised lower back pain exercise sheet is coming! Colored pictures with detailed explanations modernize the Cox Exercises. Keep your eyes open to see them! Still available in pads of 50 tear-off sheets, but they're glossy pages now. So professional! Just sharing...

We have added a new page on Post Surgical Continued Pain (aka FBSS) Lower Back Pain Relief with Cox Technic. Today's chiropractic practices are seeing so many patients now who have already had back surgery of some sort. Cox Technic is a gentle, safe, documented means to relief for these post-surgical back pain patients. Two interesting articles on these patients come from Dr. Ralph Kruse and Dr. Jerrilyn Cambron: a case report of one patient and a review study of 32 FBSS patients.

Now is the time to tell patients what Cox Technic can do. A page description of the PSCP patient and positive outcomes with chiropractic care are highlighted.

Dr. James Cox, developer of the flexion distraction system of non-surgical protocols for the care of spine pain patients, hosts this low back webinar from his personal home-office which is equipped with The Cox Table to demonstrate treatment as well as share slides via his computer. Research updates - He is going to first present some of the most recent and the most exciting research published findings then patient cases, including imaging, history, treatment, outcome.

Dr. Cox presents actual patient cases from examination, diagnosis, imaging, treatment plans and goals to treatment demonstration of Disc Herniation, Fracture, Motor Weakness, Bilateral Stenosis, Bilateral Radiculopathy, Radicular Pain on side opposite the herniation. He shares a case of a Post Surgical Low Back patient he has cared for and followed for 16 years. This patient didn't want any more back surgery and chooses to be a chiropractic Cox Technic patient and modify his life ergonomically to control his back pain so it doesn't control him or his desired lifestyle.

One attendee of the LIVE webinar wrote "Thank you for the superb seminar. Wow. Dr Cox was on fire! I like the new look of the slides background and graphics. Keep it up. Amazing cases. Anxious to be attending the next webinar." Register to see the excitement yourself. The course is just an hour and 5 minutes that go by quite quickly.

Contact Julie if you have any questions on this chiropractic technique webinar for the care of low back pain patients.

Vancouver's Dr. Richard Hunter practices at one of the 20 chiropractic clinics joining Dr. James Cox in gathering data on how flexion distraction and decompression Cox Technic helps these patients. Recent published reports by Kruse and Cambron (one on 32 cases and one case report on one post surgical continued pain patient) share how Cox Technic relieved this post surgical pain in these patients who had undergone back surgery but have pain still. These papers are good starts. This next step is gathering information from many chiropractic offices caring for patients similarly and analyzing this data.

Dr. Cox set this study up with assistance from statisticians at Purdue University and input from Dr. Ram Gudavalli. Twenty clinics in US and Canada are participating. They are letting their communities know that they are doing this collection study as well, and Dr. Hunter shared this information with Dr. Don Nixdorf who hosts a radio show in Vancouver called the "Dr. Don Show" as well as the executive director of the British Columbia Chiropractic Association.

Dr. Don invited Dr. Hunter and Dr. Cox to join him to discuss chiropractic and its care of the post surgical continued pain patient. They talked for about an hour. To hear and watch their interaction, please check out this podcast video shared by the "Dr. Don Show" and 630am.

If you are a patient seeking care for post surgical continued pain, consult a local certified Cox Technic doctor.

If you are a physician seeking more information on the Cox Technic System of protocols for spine pain relief, please contact us or check information on our seminars. You may even want to watch the FBSS webinar in which Dr. Cox presents statistics on back surgery outcomes as well as options and how Cox Technic protocols may be applied to the spine.

A logical question for any doctor to ask who is looking to incorporate a new protocol into his or her clinical practice. In fact, it should be asked of anything new. Where's the research? Where's the evidence? Where's the support? Cox Technic for spinal pain relief (back pain, neck pain, arm pain, leg pain, disc related and non-disc related) invites such inquiry.

Cox Technic under its developer, Dr. James M. Cox, has come far in its nearly 50 years to gather the answers and has very talented researchers (chiropractic and medical and biomechanist PhDs from Hines VA, Loyola Stritch School of Medicine, Palmer Research, Univ of Iowa and others), instructors and physicians taking it forward. Comments from the physicians, the back pain specialists, who use and have taken training courses in Cox Technic best answer the posed question of "What's With Cox Technic?" Here are a few:

• "I must say, I am so glad I made this transition to using the Cox technique.  In only a few months I don't know how I would practice without it anymore.  I have already had patients that I have treated for YEARS with typical diversified technique that just accepted that they were never going to get relief from their lower back pain and with only a couple of treatments with the Cox protocol they are seeing significant improvements.  With other cases where you have a rather large patient, doing a side posture adjustment was impossible.  Using an Activator or similar adjusting tool was a joke and Thompson drops were minimally valuable.  With my new Cox 8 table, it is so easy to counter balance their weight and treat their lower back joints and disc injuries with absolute ease.  I no longer have to cringe when I see them walk in the door.  On another note, now that I have the capability of doing cervical decompression techniques that has also opened up a whole new world of options.  I have a patient that has been diagnosed with something called IBM or Inclusion Body Myositis.  Personally, before him, I had never heard of it before.  It reminds you a lot of MS.  Anyway, this patient was quickly losing function of his arms.  I had worked with him over the past year using cold laser techniques which did help some.  His neurologist insisted that he go see a PT and undergo 6-8 weeks of rehab exercises.  Well, the patient came back after two visits of PT and said that they had dismissed him and said that there was nothing they could do for him.  About this time I got my Cox table and just for the hell of it I decided to add the cervical Cox protocol to his treatment plan.  I must tell you to my absolute amazement, we have made more progress in a hand full of visits then we had made all last year.  I still use the laser techniques, but combined with the Cox it has been amazing.  The strength that is returning in his arms was totally unexpected.  I often joke with him and remind him that "there is nothing that can be done to help him"!  I know I have a lot to learn yet, but I truly appreciate all the work your father has put into this technique.  Since I've been out of school, which has been about 17 years now, this is the first thing that I can honestly say has made me feel proud to be a chiropractor.  I wish I had met your father [[Dr. Cox]] sooner!" Dr. C.J. Valenti (email  1/27/12 certified at Part II in 11/11)
• "The research strongly supports the technique and the data/material are convincing/comprehensive for the public and healthcare providers of other disciplines." - Part I, San Francisco, 1/12
• "Leander 'pumping the well' is not Cox [Technic]." - Part I, San Francisco, 1/12
•  "Dr. Cox has connected the dots." He has taken a lot of research from different fields of practice and organized them for us practitioners. The information and data from all the studies were well organized and just opened my eyes. I could immediately identify many patients I treat. By the way, that quote was my patient's! and (2) Dr. Cox has built a very impressive research foundation where the researchers sought him and his technique. He piqued their curiosity based on his work and not marketing." - Part I, San Francisco, 1/12

Cox Technic is more than just a technique. It's a SYSTEM of understanding the biomechanics thoroughly enough to examine and diagnose a patient's condition and set the proper treatment plan for pain relief. Cox Technic pulls it all together, and Cox Seminars are the best places to learn more.
