Cox Technic

HI All
I know that they say a person with Chiari should not see a Chiropractor. But I have read an article saying that a certain Technic could help.

This is were I read it.

http://www.upright-health.com/chiari-malformation-surgery.html

I looked up this Cox Technic and this is what I found on youtube.

Has anyone heard of this or had it done? Did it help?

Thanks everyone.

No worries...it just looks like a chiro has a table that does all the work and they stand by to see the results....Not sure it is diff from a chiro unless u have issues with positions for u or the dr to get at, this may make their job a tad easier...not really sure, but the info seemed to be all fluff...not real substance so I could understand y this is better , safer or nething.

No worries, nothing ventured nothing gained : )

Sorry selma.. I saw that after I posted.. Maybe not such a good idea!! I keep hoping there's going to be a simple answer for Chiari.. but I guess not.

Thanks for looking Selma ((HUGS))

  OMG Jackie did u look at the video for that table?....they strap u in and it is automated to do traction and detraction....ummmm not too sure I would be comfortable being strapped to a table that moves like that....even the cervical head piece moves....

I am not learning much from the site...just the dang table...yikes : P

Hi Selma

I believe this is the other site. Yes.. i know. if it's been around so long then you would think we would have heard of it. Just curious if anyone else tried it. At this stage I would be almost willing to try anything. But it's probably another no go for us here in Ireland.. I can't find anyone here that does it.

Hi Jackie...I have never heard of this technique...and if it worked u would think more of us would have...especially since they claim it has been around since the 70's.

I am not sure  about it and would want more info...the utube video said there was another site, but it was so small I could not read it...If u can figure out the other site for more info let me know...I am always willing to learn more : )

Thanks for sharing this
