Cox® Seminars – Parts I and II Lumbar Spine - 32 hrs

32 hours CE academic lectures/hands-on workshops 4 days Thursday/Friday/Saturday 8am-7pm, Sunday 8am-11am optional certification examination on Saturday evening Instructors: Cox, Joachim, Olding This combined Part I and II 4-days course allows an intense session of learning the protocols of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management for Lumbar Spine (with short introductions to thoracic and cervical spine) from the biomechanics to the examination and diagnosis to the treatment and research-documented clinical and research-laboratory documented outcomes. The Part I material is introductory to Cox® Technic flexion distraction and decompression protocols. It shares the academic basis for the research-documented and evidence-based protocols as well as introduces its hands-on application. The academics focus on the non-discogenic conditions. Lead by a proficient chiropractic hands-on instructor who practices this technique every day, the academics and hands-on sessions allow attendees to feel comfortable with the protocol and system of examination, diagnosis and treatment to produce clinical outcomes like those found in the flexion distraction literature. Then Dr. Cox and (possibly) Dr. Gudavalli continue the weekend with the Part II material focused on discogenic condition material mixed with treatment demonstration and practice before the certification examination (optional) is made available. Part II allows Dr. Cox and Dr. Ram Gudavalli, the principal investigator of flexion distraction whose skill and research connections grow to include more critical thinking researchers with each project, to give you the latest in biomechanics and clinical research and more on the disc-related conditions and cervical spine.
