READY TO SEE YOUR SPINE MOVE?! Exciting Possibility!
Ever wanted to see your spine
move under your chiropractor’s hand? Exciting studies – at least to your
Oxford chiropractor! - are underway
leading in that direction! A new study was just distributed
that documented the reliability of ultrasound measurement of spinous
process separation - the change in distance
between the spinous processes as they gap - during Cox® Technic
flexion distraction spinal manipulation. (1) Cox® Technic is so precise
a treatment protocol that specific segment activity can be prompted.
Say, for a patient who has pain with an L5-S1
disc herniation, biomechanical studies have revealed
that Cox® Technic widens the area of the spine’s intervertebral foramen by 28% allotting
a herniated disc spavce to not physically irritate
a spinal nerve. Movement of the spinal vertebrae (mean) in flexion was 3.68°
with 0.80 mm separation. (2,3) Very good! Chiropractic care at
Satterwhite Chiropractic helps reduce back pain and leg pain so our Oxford
chiropractic patients can return to their normal activities of daily living! One day, technology may even permit us,
you and your chiropractor, to visualize the changes as they are
happening. Quite sensational!
Listen to this PODCAST
with Dr. James Cox, developer of Cox® Technic protocols, on The Back Doctors Podcast with
Dr. Michael Johnson about the documented
benefits of The
Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management.
Oxford CHIROPRACTIC HEALTH TIP OF MONTH:
Blueberries for Weight Control, Mood, Memory, and More!
Flavonoids – polyphenolic compounds that give color to fruits and veggies – are well-known for
being antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-aging as well as effective
in improving cardiovascular health and increasing
memory. A recent study added to this list by noting
that the more one eats flavonoid-rich foods, the lower the risk one has of
having type 2 diabetes (4) while another noted
just how well eating fruits and vegetables improved
memory and attention, especially in children’s immediate
recall after eating blueberries while older adults need a
higher dose of both to get as significant an
improvement. (5) And lastly, the pterostilbene compound from
blueberries is one that may assist the management of obesity and
mental well-being. (6) Eating wild blueberries exhibited better
mental affect and executive function after one dose of
blueberries in adults with depressive symptoms. (7) Blueberries are so
healthy! Enjoy some today as part of your nutrition plan!
