Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic’s October 2017 Healthy Newsletter

Eugene knee pain is a pain that Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic sees a lot. Pain meds and surgical options are commonly recommended while a new non-surgical chiropractic protocol is revealing quite promising results. Principles of Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression - a technique utilized in clinic daily for Eugene back pain and neck pain relief - were customized for application with knee pain. They demonstrated success in lessening knee pain. Overall, the mean pain scores for knee pain patients dropped from 7.7 to 1.8 on a 10 point scale with 10 being the worst 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 dropped from 7.5 to 2.2 in 5.4 treatments in 3.3 weeks. None of the patients experienced any adverse reactions. (1) It's gentle, relieving, and comfortable.  Check out a PODCAST by the author of this paper about his clinical experience in treating knee pain. This is an exciting addition to Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic’s Eugene chiropractic care! Eugene knee pain sufferers are welcomed to feel this gentle, relieving Eugene knee pain treatment!

A simple series of hip abductor exercises relieved pain and improved function for a set of older chronic low back pain sufferers. (2) Easy!
