Dr. Raymond Hall, DC, at ChiroPlusMD™ has practiced the Cox Flexion Distraction in Santa Monica to help a good amount of patients with back, neck, or leg pain. Used by highly skilled and trained chiropractors, this Santa Monica chiropractic technique increases the range of movement throughout the body's joints and muscles, and allows for improvement in the patient's posture.
A non-surgical method, the Santa Monica Cox Flexion Distraction involves the correct alignment of the spine in order to alleviate pain. Multiple discs in the lower spinal area are decompressed with slow movements that are repetitive in nature. The nerves around the spine begin to function normally, as these repetitive movements reduce pressure on the discs and decrease inflammation in that part of the body.
The chiropractic table, on which the Cox Flexion Distraction in Santa Monica is performed by Dr. Hall, is a crucial part of the technique. The table assists in separating the spine's joints into three distinct areas: the thoracic section, the cervical section, and the lumbar section. Treatment with the Santa Monica Cox Flexion Distraction technique loosens up the spaces between the discs in each of the three areas in order to create more space among the spine's vertebral discs.
Daily stresses like exercising, running, and jumping place pressure on the vertebral discs of the spine, which act like shock absorbers. Alleviating this pressure enables the discs to heal from these stresses. Cox Flexion Distraction in Santa Monica, as a result, significantly reduces pain.
Many patients feel an instant relief of pain after Santa Monica Cox Flexion Distraction treatment, but for others it may be almost a month before they feel the effects of the adjustments. The likelihood of positive results and a reduction in pain increases with ongoing weekly visits for chiropractic treatment with Dr. Hall over a one year period. The Santa Monica Cox Flexion Distraction technique can also be used for the treatment of headaches and migraines, spinal subluxation and neurological disease. It can also help reduce back pain in pregnant women and increase circulation in patients, among many other uses.
