This chiropractic care starts with back pain relief. The spinal manipulation method OrthoIllinois Chiropractic employs is known as Cox Technic. From the research studies concerning this approach, it’s known that radiculopathy (leg pain), chronic moderate/severe back pain and recurrent mild back pain (pain than comes and goes) react more favorably to chiropractic Cox Technic than to medical conservative care. This study also demonstrated that chronic/recurrent – back pain that recurs several times a year – reacts better to exercise. (2) OrthoIllinois Chiropractic recognizes that exercise is critical to manage back pain and prevent future back pain. OrthoIllinois Chiropractic urges all our McHenry chiropractic patients to help themselves with exercise.
