Cox Technic: Part I & II Lumbar Spine


Part I — What Is Cox® Technic? The Basics (Thursday and Friday, October 24-25, 2024) - 15 hours
This dynamic, fast-paced 15 hours seminar is the first step to incorporating the System of Cox® Technic into your spine pain management practice. It is based on the biomechanical and anatomical published spinal literature as well as the experimental laboratory studies’ findings on Cox® Technic itself. The System of Cox® Technic uses this biomechanical and anatomical understanding as a bridge to the interpretation of the clinical examination and imaging findings to come up with a clear diagnosis of the patient’s spine pain source and condition. From this, a clear treatment plan is set forth, a treatment plan based on evidence and science.
 
The conditions focused on at Part I on the non-discogenic conditions like facet syndrome, spondylolisthesis, tropism, short leg and the like with some sharing of care for scoliosis, lumbago, thoracic spine tightness, and spinal stenosis.
Hands-on protocols are introduced, demonstrated, and practiced for lumbar spine in small groups while videotaped actual clinical patients’ examination, treatment, even education, from Dr. Cox’s office are shared.
Part I introduces The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as it focuses on non-discogenic low back pain conditions along with a bit of discogenic and stenotic and the Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression hands-on protocols. Part I shares the history and evolution of the science and research behind the protocols and features small group sessions lead by experienced chiropractic instructors that focus on the application of the protocols.
Lead by experienced, certified-in-Cox®-Technic chiropractic hands-on instructors who practice this technique every day, this weekend will excite you for Monday morning! 
 
Part II Cox® Certification Course - How Is Cox® Technic Applied and Integrated into a Clinical Practice (Saturday & Sunday, October 26-27, 2024) - 15 hours
This energetic weekend course builds on the foundation started in Part I. The biomechanical and anatomical influences on spinal pain are reviewed. The clinical examination is re-emphasized as its importance in the care and ultimate clinical outcome of spinal pain patients is paramount. The treatment plan is demonstrated in videotaped clinical cases. The treatment protocol from tolerance testing to administration based on the research-documented and published algorithms is demonstrated, practiced, finetuned during the objective pressure-transducer session for each attendee, and graded during the practical exam. Tips for educating patients in home care and pain prevention as well as principled ways to spread the word about your gentle, evidence-based care are included. The conditions focused on in Part II are discogenic-related like disc herniation, spinal stenosis, radiculopathy, and the like with presentations on treating post-surgical continued pain patient pregnancy-related back and/or leg pain, thoracic disc herniations and more.
 
Hands-on protocols for lumbar spine are practiced in small groups. Protocol I and II and side-lying techniques are shared.
 
Part I introduced the academics of Cox® Technic more for the non-discogenic spinal pain conditions as well as the hands-on protocols. Part II makes sure that the hands-on application is proper with hands-on training emphasis. Small groups lead by experienced, certified-in-Cox®-Technic chiropractic instructors focus on the application of the protocols. The certification examination is offered optionally.  Part II continues the presentation of The Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management as it focuses on discogenic low back pain at Part II. Cox® Technic is a system of spinal pain management. The technique doesn’t stand alone in the relief of spine pain, but rather is a central component. The patient, home care, Cox® Technic, exercise, examination, doctor skill are all part of the system whose goal is pain relief. The didactic discussion of spine pain conditions highlights disc-related conditions and spinal stenosis. Part II small group hands-on sessions ensure proper protocol application. Attendees practice with the force-measuring Cox®8 Force Table by Haven Medical that provides real-time feedback regarding the pressure being applied to the spine throughout the delivery of Cox® Technic protocols. This translates the biomechanics research findings of Gudavalli et al into clinical, practical application for patient back pain and leg pain relief. It's evidence-based practice care at its best highlighting the nearly 55+ years of effort to document chiropractic care outcomes fostered by Cox® Technic's developer, Dr. James Cox. The first federally funded study by the US government for chiropractic research when Dr. Ram Gudavalli joined Dr. Cox, the research abilities really started to be interdisciplinary and more complex. You will see and experience how. This course is a mix of research and clinical application for attendee implementation into current practice. The lumbar certification examination is offered optionally.
 
Special COMBINED PARTS I/II 4 Days' Course: In the combined Parts I/II 4 days course (30 CE hours), you will immerse yourself in Cox® Technic and the non-surgical system of back pain care that all started in Fort Wayne. Dr. James Cox, developer of Cox® Technic, and Drs. George Joachim, Kurt Olding will guide you through Parts I and II material, hands-on training, the examination, the research, and the patient tips to elevate your clinical outcomes. In San Diego, CA Drs. Lee Hazen, George Joachim and/or Kurt Olding will do the same. In West Palm Beach, FL, Dr. Ralph Kruse.
