Cox® Technic Delivers Back Pain
Relief for a Challenging Case: Disc Extrusion with Spondylolytic
Spondylolisthesis
Extruded discs alone
are painful and many times believed to be surgical
issues. Spondylolytic spondylolisthesis by itself is a disabling,
painful condition and many times thought to be a surgical
issue necessitating fusion. Bring these two conditions
together in in a single patient and the Manchester
chiropractic patient and the treating physician like your Manchester
chiropractor face a challenge that demands
gentle, experienced care. A newly published case
report of a patient with a disc extrusion – one that
has escaped its outer bands and settled into the spinal canal space
– and spondylolytic spondylolisthesis – involving
separation of the pars interarticularis – described how just
9 visits in 4 weeks brought about pain relief.
The patient who rated his pain a 9 out of 10 (a 10 indicating
the worst pain) on the first visit rated it 0 out of 10 on the
ninth visit. Follow-up at 10 years revealed that the patient showed no orthopedic or
neurological issues and recounted no recurrence of the earlier
symptoms. (1) What was the treatment plan? The Cox® Technic System of
Spinal Pain Management, the same care offered at our

TIP OF THE MONTH:
Enjoy This Apple
Season!
Feed the gut. Lose some weight and raise your
bone density to improve your spine. Reduce your risk of
diabetes and heart disease. Protect the brain. How? Have an apple!
Apples are very healthy! They have hardly
any calories, good pre-biotic pectin that feeds the good
gut bacteria, lots of fiber and water to fill you up, lots of antioxidant polyphenols in the peel, acetylcholine-level-preserving features
to protect the brain, and flavonoids that may lower blood pressure,
cholesterol, and stroke risk. (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8) Apples round
out a healthy chiropractic approach to life!
