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.

This is the second in the educational Cox Technic Webinar Series.

Dr. James Cox presents a webinar on the care of the post-surgical pain patient who has had spinal surgery and now has continued spinal pain. Widely known as the failed back surgical syndrome patient (FBSS for short), these post-surgical continued pain patients are demanding of chiropractic's conservative skill. Most patients have had a surgery - or several - and either don't want another surgery or can't have another surgery and want pain relief, any amount will do. These patients well appreciate the 50% or 80% or 90% (sometimes even 100%) relief they get under the Cox Technic chiropractor's care. Cox Technic protocols outline the protocols to follow in treating these patients who have hardware in their spines or not.

Join Dr. Cox for this discussion on July 13, 2011, at 12:30pm EST for his presentation in talk and imaging on the FBSS patient.
