Augusta Back Pain Relief with Researched Chiropractic Care

March 26, 2025

Spinal pain management can be overwhelming, but improvements in spinal care research and collaborative care are offering Augusta back pain patients renewed optimism. The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management stands out as a reliable, evidence-based approach, supported by biomechanical and clinical research. This system's commitment to enhancing patient outcomes through partnership with medical and osteopathic groups sets a dedication to advancing care. With growing recognition and support from organizations like HRSA and NIH, Cox® Technic keeps building trust with its peer-reviewed findings and case studies, offering both chiropractic physicians like yours at Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic and our patients a research-supported path forward in Augusta spinal pain management.

TREMENDOUS GROWTH OF CHIROPRACTIC SPINAL MANIPULATION

A paper was just published emphasizing the fact that utilization of spinal manipulation for musculoskeletal conditions has increased almost three times in the US since 1980. This review focused on the documented outcomes of HVLA-SM (high velocity low amplitude spinal manipulation) and suggested some future research directions. (1) A chiropractic manipulation technique called Cox® Technic spinal manipulation is another type of spinal manipulation with a different method and referred to in published reports as low velocity low amplitude spinal manipulation. It’s one that we use at Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic because it is very research-focused and has been for over 55+ years.

EXPANSION OF RESEARCH SUPPORT FOR SPINAL MANIPULATION

Improving Augusta chiropractic patient care of musculoskeletal disorders like spine-related back pain and neck pain is key in today’s healthcare, in publishing, in researching, in detailing biomechanical and clinical effectiveness. A new article titled "’The Dark Side of Musculoskeletal Care’: Why Do Ineffective Techniques Seem to Work? A Comprehensive Review of Complementary and Alternative Therapies” – what a title! – recognizes the acceptance and expanded utilization of as well as challenges osteopathy and chiropractic keep performing more and more thorough research and reporting. (2) So true! In chiropractic, the role of research has grown, the recognition of the important role of research documentation has grown, and the funding to complete research has become slightly more available especially when such research is done collaboratively with medical or osteopathic groups. The team behind the chiropractic approach of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management has pushed for biomechanical and clinical outcomes studies, obtained some federal funding from HRSA and NIH, and amassed a respectable list of peer-reviewed published cases, cases studies, and biomechanical details that Lombardy Chiropractic Clinic can draw upon to more fully detail the condition and its care.
