This chiropractic care starts with back pain relief. The spinal manipulation approach The Chiropractic TRUhealthDR uses is known as Cox Technic. From the research studies concerning this approach, it’s known that radiculopathy (leg pain), chronic moderate/severe back pain and recurrent mild back pain (pain than comes and goes) respond better to chiropractic Cox Technic than to medical conservative care. This study also documented that chronic/recurrent – back pain that recurs several times a year – reacts better to exercise.
