Non-Surgical Back Pain Relief

Do you suffer from back pain, neck pain, headaches, shoulder, arm, leg, or low back pain?  If so, you are not alone. This type of pain robs you of your quality of life, and when it does, you want and deserve your pain-free life back as gently, effectively, and quickly as possible.

Carol’s Story of Healing

Carol Oster had been suffering with back pain for a long time, and she was looking for some hope. Carol explains, “I was really reluctant to go to a chiropractor…..I was 72 years old, and I had never been to one before in my life.”

Dr. Robert Patterson has established a reputation in the Kansas City area as a caring practitioner who has a passion for relieving low back pain. In his 23 years of practice in Overland Park, Kansas, he has seen his share of patients like Carol who are both hesitant to try chiropractic, but who are also looking for an alternative to more surgery and/or more medications. “Before Carol came to our office, she couldn’t even roll over in bed or give her new husband a hug. She could hardly walk, and even caring for her dog was difficult. When I meet patients who should be enjoying life, but can’t because of chronic pain, I feel for them. I want to help them get back to a better quality of living.” Carol couldn’t be happier with the results she has seen since meeting Dr. Patterson. “I have a decent life now. Dr. Patterson has done wonderful things for me and my back.”

Get Relief with Cox Spinal Decompression

Research has shown Cox Decompression to be an effective form of treatment for conditions such as stenosis, disc herniation, and degenerative disc disease. This unique approach is a gentle, non-force distraction or decompression adjustment of the spine. Using a specialized flexion distraction table, Dr. Patterson is able to safely traction areas of the spine to reduce disc pressure, increase the size of nerve openings, and restore more freedom of movement. This offers a non-surgical alternative to a more invasive surgery for relief of pain in the neck, arm, back and leg. Cox Technic’s effectiveness for these more complex conditions makes it an excellent approach and highly effective for less complex conditions of back and neck pain as well.

As one of only three chiro-practors currently in the State of Kansas who are actively certified in Cox Flexion Distrac- tion manipulation, Dr. Patterson can treat individuals who may be afraid of traditional chiropractic adjusting techniques, and also older patients who may not be able to tolerate more aggressive maneuvers.”

We Can Help

People who suffer from severe chronic pain know how it can utterly disrupt one’s life. Pain can make it hard to enjoy even the simplest daily activities and makes it a challenge to carry out exercise routines and other healthy activities. People often live a life of compromise in their activities. Many patients find as they grow older, episodes of low back pain become more frequent, their pain worsens in intensity and it takes longer for them to recover. There is no reason to needlessly suffer.
