Twenty-two chiropractic doctors and students joined at the beautiful Hyatt Boston Harborside Hotel for a weekend of hands-on and academic experience. Lead by Dr. Ralph Kruse, the doctors from Norway to Illinois to Connecticut to Canada heard about the history of Cox Technic, saw videotaped cases of Dr. James Cox, the developer of Cox Technic Flexion Distraction and Decompression spinal manipulation, applying Cox Technic protocols from the spinal manipulation to ancillary therapies and exercise, gained insights into the biomechanics of flexion distraction based on federally funded HRSA grant studies and the clinical outcomes of flexion distraction, and felt how the proper application of Cox Technic should feel as both the doctor and patient. Always an amazing finding is how small the motion is to get the desired effect. One to 2 inches of motion from the treatment starting point is all it takes. There is no need or desire for 16° of flexion when applying flexion distraction properly. Further, dropping intradiscal pressures on the DRG is important. Pain is when there is more than 20mm of pressure on the DRG nerves according to Takahashi.

“You get the latest research presented in concise form, as well as individual hands-on with the technique that is invaluable. When’s the last time a seminar day flew by? Good stuff.”

– Boston Part I (7/11) attendee comment on evaluation form

So consider joining the next Cox Technic Part I Certification Course in San Diego on September 9-10, 2011.

We get requests for used Flexion Distraction tables from doctors and requests to sell used flexion distraction tables. If a doctor wants to sell a used flexion distraction table to upgrade to The Cox Table by Haven Innovation or just make room in the office, there is surely a buyer for the used flexion distraction table. 

Cox Technic affiliated personnel and companies are not party to these transactions, but as a service offers a listing services for used flexion distraction tables.

Please check out the listing of USED FLEXION DISTRACTION TABLES we know of at http://www.coxtechnic.com/doctors/classifieds. All sales are independent between buyer and seller.

It's tough this year without knowing what Congress will decide about taxes, but Kiplinger's offers some advice on business tax purchases. Deduct 50% of the purchase right now instead of depreciating it all over time.

Section 179 Business Tax Deduction can help too.  The full price of the financed or leased equipment is eligible within limits. For example, Section 179 on a $17,200 equipment purchase can save $6020.

Equipment for the practice may be in order? Check www.coxtable.com for information on The Cox® Table.
