Proudly Serving Patients Since 1993

A Gentle, Research-Backed Technique for Lower Back Pain, Disc Injuries, and Sciatica Relief

At Douglasville Wellness, we use Cox Lumbar Flexion Distraction, a proven chiropractic technique designed to safely decompress the spine, reduce nerve pressure, and restore pain-free movement. This technique is especially effective for patients suffering from disc problems, sciatica, spinal stenosis, and chronic lower back pain. Using a specialized table and controlled, gentle movements, Cox Flexion Distraction helps relieve pressure without surgery, injections, or aggressive manipulation.

If you’re seeking a trusted, low-force, comfortable treatment option that targets the root of your spinal pain, Cox Flexion Distraction may be an excellent fit.

What Is Cox Lumbar Flexion Distraction?

Cox Lumbar Flexion Distraction is a non-surgical, hands-on spinal decompression technique created by Dr. James M. Cox. It uses a specially designed flexion table that allows controlled movement of the lower spine while your chiropractor applies precise manual pressure. This creates a smooth, rhythmic stretching effect that helps reduce pressure on spinal discs, nerves, and joints.

As the spine gently flexes and decompresses, the technique works to:

  • Increase spinal canal space
  • Reduce pressure inside the lumbar discs
  • Promote retraction of herniated or bulging disc material
  • Improve joint motion and flexibility
  • Reduce irritation of spinal nerves
  • Enhance nutrient flow to damaged tissues


Cox Flexion Distraction is gentle, controlled, and comfortable, making it an ideal option for patients who prefer low-force techniques or who cannot tolerate traditional chiropractic adjustments.

This method is supported by decades of clinical research, making it one of the most evidence-based chiropractic treatments available today.

Together, we will develop a personalized treatment plan to meet your health needs. We can help treat a variety of conditions including:
