Disc conditions of the Low Back and Neck with arm and leg pain are treated with Cox flexion-distraction protocol. This well-researched protocol is a drugless, non-surgical approach that has proven highly successful in providing care for most disc conditions. Only a small percentage of disc conditions require surgery, and medical approaches using drugs and injections are not able to address the real mechanical causes of disc injuries. Dr. Strasser has used the Cox protocol for 20 years and has completed extensive post-graduate studies in this technique.
Neck and Low Back pain with restricted motion, from accidents or long-standing chronic conditions, are treated with gentle and non-force Chiropractic manipulation, traditional Osteopathic and Chiropractic manual techniques, and soft-tissue therapies.
