Struggling with chronic low back pain or leg discomfort? Maybe you’ve been told that surgery is your only option. Now for some encouraging news: we’ve helped countless patients avoid invasive procedures with Cox Flexion Distraction, a gentle, highly effective technique that addresses the root cause of spinal pain.
Developed by Dr. James Cox, this technique blends osteopathic principles with precise chiropractic care to help relieve back and leg pain. It’s become a trusted approach for helping Trenton and Hamilton residents find lasting comfort and move with greater ease.
What Makes Cox Flexion Distraction Different
During your visit to our clinic, you’ll notice a specially designed Cox table that gently supports and stretches the spine. This isn’t a typical adjustment table. It allows your chiropractor to traction the spine safely, relieving pressure on spinal discs and joints while restoring proper motion.
You’ll lie comfortably as the table moves in a slow, controlled pattern that helps neutralize the effects of gravity. This gentle movement separates spinal joints, reduces compression, and restores a more natural range of motion. It’s particularly helpful for those whose spines have been affected by injury, degeneration, or long-term stress.
A Nonforce Approach to Healing
With this gentle technique, there’s no twisting or aggressive manipulation. Instead, the Cox table creates a slow pumping motion that reduces disc bulging, increases disc height, and improves overall spinal mobility. Most of our patients find the experience surprisingly relaxing. Some report noticeable relief even after their first session at our office.
Many people find that light movement, such as a short walk along Two Bridges Trail or a peaceful moment by the water at South Riverwalk Park, can help maintain flexibility and encourage relaxation between visits.
At Fischer Chiropractic Center, we’ve been proudly serving the Trenton and Hamilton communities since 1968. Our experienced team provides care in a warm, inviting space featuring cathedral ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and friendly staff who make every patient feel at home. This calming environment enhances relaxation, which is an important part of the healing process during Cox flexion distraction treatments.
Who Benefits From Cox Flexion Distraction
This gentle method can make a meaningful difference for people living with herniated or bulging discs, sciatica, chronic low back pain, spinal stenosis, failed back surgery syndrome, or facet joint irritation. It’s especially helpful for those seeking relief without the force or risks that come with traditional adjustments or surgery.
