Cox® Technic Delivers Back Pain
Relief for a Challenging Case: Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic
Spondylolisthesis
Extruded discs alone
are painful and many times considered surgical
issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis alone is a disabling,
painful condition and often considered a surgical
issue needing fusion. Combine the two of these in a single patient and the West Palm Beach
chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your West Palm Beach
chiropractor encounter a challenge that calls for
gentle, skilled care. A recently published case
report of a patient with a disc extrusion – one that
has escaped its outer bands and entered into the spinal canal space
– and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving
separation of the pars interarticularis – described how just
9 visits in 4 weeks resulted in pain relief.
The patient who rated his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 indicating
the worst pain) on visit 1 rated it 0 out of 10 on visit 9. Follow-up at ten years revealed that the patient showed no orthopedic or
neurological issues and reported no recurrence of the earlier
symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan? The Cox® Technic System of
Spinal Pain Management, the same care used at our
chiropractic clinic. Chiropractic Care invites challenging
West Palm Beach back pain cases like this!
Listen to this PODCAST with chiropractic
back pain specialist, Dr. Casey Bearden on The Back Doctors Podcast with Dr.
Michael Johnson as he shared how spondylolisthesis with
disc bulges positively reacted to his treatment utilizing
the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.

TIP OF THE MONTH:
Enjoy This Apple
Season!
Feed the gut. Lose some weight and increase your
bone density to help your spine. Lower your risk of
diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Eat an apple!
Apples are very healthy! They have few calories, good pre-biotic pectin that nourishes the good
gut bacteria, plenty of fiber and water to make you
feel full, loads of antioxidant polyphenols in the peel, acetylcholine-level-preserving features
to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may reduce blood pressure,
cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples round
out a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
