Here is a recent patient conversation I had. This patient was sent just the other week to me by a pain management practice.
The patient has had pain for ten plus years, has had injections, had two knee replacements, and is in chronic pain in her lumbar spine with degenerative arthritis causing stenosis and both central canal and foraminal diffuse. On her first visit we did the exam and shared the report of findings with her. I explained what was wrong with her based on her exam and radiology and laid out the treatment plan of what we were going to do with The Cox Table and why The Cox Table was necessary as well as the exercise she needed.
The patient had a confused look on her face, and I asked if she understood. She looked at me and said "that makes sense with what I have been feeling." She went on to say that it is the opposite of what everyone else, the PTs and other physicians, have explained to her. She also stated that she went to PT, and it made her worse so she quit.
I have started her on the Cox Protocol One and proper exercise. She is surprised at how well she is doing, and I think a little irritated at her other healthcare providers. She has told me that I need to get the word out about what we are doing more because she is not the only one in her position. I recommended she talk with her pain management physician, and she said she will be calling the pain management doctor and recommending that the pain management doctor send everyone she has to me for care. This quite kind.
The Cox method makes this type of care and clinical result possible where no other technique is able to produce these results with this level of contition. The reason the pain management group started referring in the first place is the lecture for doctors that you [
Cox Technic Resource Center] put together. I presented it to the four doctors and 2 nurse practitioners. They were all impressed that this type of care was available and with the research that is behind this technique. Also it makes sense to them. They appreciate the fact that we are offering an alternative for patients whot have nowhere else to go. High velocity-low amplitude [HVLA] adjusting is often contraindicated in their patient population, and they like that we understand this and can do something about it that WORKS.
