Pflugerville knee pain is a pain that Pflugerville Wellness Center sees often. Pain medications and surgical procedures abound while a new non-surgical chiropractic approach is showing quite promising results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique utilized in clinic all the time for Pflugerville back pain and neck pain relief - were amended for use with knee pain. They are shown to be of help in easing knee pain. Overall, knee pain patients’ mean pain scores dropped from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale 1 least pain, 10 most pain in a mean of 5.3 visits over 3 weeks. More specifically, acute knee pain patients’ pain scores dropped even more from a mean of 8.1 to 1.1 in 4.8 treatments in 2.4 weeks. Chronic knee pain patients’ scores fell from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. None of the patients reported any adverse reactions.

Pflugerville CHIROPRACTIC TIP OF THE MONTH: Strengthen the Hip Abductors

We all can gain from stronger hip abductors, and Pflugerville elder folks gain even more. A new article reports that people with chronic low back pain typically have hip abductor weakness, too. (Pflugerville Wellness Center agrees as these two are seen often in this Pflugerville chiropractic practice.) A simple series of hip abductor exercises helped reduce pain and improve function for a set of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy! Pflugerville Wellness Center will share some hip strengthening exercises you can do in the convenience of your own home along with the Pflugerville chiropractic spinal manipulation with Cox Technic in office to achieve such relief yourself.
