The Science-Backed Solution for Vancouver Chronic Neck Pain

October 07, 2025

If you're one of the multitude struggling with Vancouver neck pain, you know how it can disrupt your entire day. Simple chores like checking your blind spot while in your car trying to get somewhere or settlilng into your desk become exercises in discomfort. What’s the good from this? There's a gentle, research-[[documentedlbacked]16] solution that might be just what you want.

WHAT MAKES COX® TECHNIC DIFFERENT?

Cox® Flexion-Distraction is a specialized chiropractic treatment method that utilizes a uniquely designed table to easily stretch and decompress your spine. Different from the "crack and pop" adjustments you may imagine, this technique is remarkably gentle—visualize therapeutic stretching rather than forceful manipulation.

The research speaks for itself. In a documented case study, a 64-year-old man dealing with a cervical disc herniation with left foraminal narrowing underwent Cox® cervical spine flexion-distraction treatment. After just 12 visits over four weeks, he experienced a 90% reduction in pain intensity and significant improvements in neck motion and daily function. Even more imposing? These improvements were maintained at his three-month follow-up. (1) Vancouver Disc Centers will work to help you get this kind of improvement.

THE SAFETY QUESTION

Maybe you're wondering about safety—especially if you're over 60. A complete 2025 observational study analyzed over 4,700 older adults with neck pain, comparing those who received chiropractic care versus traditional medical management. The researchers followed serious adverse events necessitating hospitalization and found no significant difference in safety between the two approaches. In fact, both groups had similarly low rates of difficulties, corroborating that chiropractic care is a safe choice for handling neck pain, even in older populations. (2)

DOES MANIPULATION ACTUALLY WORK?

A new randomized controlled trial put spinal manipulation to the test with 144 patients dealing with neck pain. Participants who got cervical and thoracic manipulations demonstrated statistically significant improvements in pain levels and disability scores paralleled baseline measurements. While the study discovered that different manipulation approaches were similarly helpful, the key takeaway is clear: spinal manipulation delivers real, measurable relief for neck pain sufferers. (3) Vancouver relief like this may be yours with our Vancouver chiropractic  treatment.
