Standing Tall Again: How Cox® Technic Chiropractic Care Eases Pain from Montreal Spinal Kyphosis
Living with spinal kyphosis goes far beyond just having a hunched back—it’s about stubborn pain, restricted movement, and the emotional weight of not being able to do what you love. Kyphosis, the forward rounding of the upper back, is especially common for older Montreal adults. It is often caused by osteoporosis, spinal fractures, or degenerative changes over time. The ultimate effect? Activities of daily living like standing tall, turning your head, or even taking deep breaths can become tough and uncomfortable.
But there’s good news. Chiropractic care at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic, particularly a technique known as Cox® Technic Flexion Distraction, is offering real relief—and hope—for people struggling with this Montreal spinal condition.
WHAT IS SPINAL KYPHOSIS?
Spinal kyphosis doesn’t just affect the thoracic spine. It throws off your entire body alignment, affecting how you stand, move, and feel. As Dr. Eric Chu emphasized in a new case report, when the thoracic spine curves forward, the neck often counters by extending the head forward. (1) This domino effect can result in cervical postural syndrome, bringing neck pain, stiffness, and muscle tiredness. Not a good thing.
HELP FOR SPINAL KYPHOSIS PAIN
That’s why treatments like Cox® Technic are so important. Rather than just covering up the pain or treating a single area, this treatment approach treats the spine as an interconnected system. It utilizies gentle, rhythmic spinal stretching and range motion to decompress joints and reduce nerve pressure—without using the intense pressure of conventional spinal adjustments. We at Dr. Hoang's Chiropractic Clinic feel you’ll like this approach!
A CASE OF KYPHOSIS
A nice example of these benefits comes from a case study by Dr. Lee Hazen about a 75-year-old woman who had undergone several vertebroplasties to manage compression fractures caused by osteoporosis. (2) Despite those procedures, she was still in significant pain and dealing with severe kyphosis. Introduce Cox® Technic to her care. Through a series of carefully applied treatments, her posture got better, her pain lessened dramatically, and she regained the ability to move more freely—something her other care approaches hadn’t been able to offer.
One of the most remarkable things about Cox® Technic is how cautious it is for older adults with fragile bones. Its slow, controlled method avoids the risks of more foreceful techniques, making it a smart alternative for those with osteoporosis or post-surgical recovery.
Together, these case studies paint a clear picture: chiropractic care and Cox® Technic don’t just work on the symptoms—they work to address the root of the problem. By restoring better alignment and easing pressure, it helps patients move better, feel stronger, and regain confidence in their bodies.
For anyone dealing with spinal kyphosis and its side effects, Montreal chiropractic care with Cox® Technic could be the missing piece to a more comfortable, active life.
