Standing Tall Again: How Cox® Technic Chiropractic Care Eases Pain from Nashua Spinal Kyphosis

Living with spinal kyphosis goes far beyond just having a hunched back—it’s about stubborn pain, limited movement, and the emotional weight of not being able to do what you love. Kyphosis, a condition where the upper back curves forward more than normal, is especially common for older Nashua adults. It’s often caused by osteoporosis, spinal fractures, or degenerative changes over time. The result? Daily activities like standing tall, rotating your head, or even taking deep breaths can become tough and uneasy.

But there’s good news. Chiropractic care at Moriarty Chiropractic, specifically a technique known as Cox® Technic Flexion Distraction, is extending real relief—and hope—for people dealing with this Nashua spinal condition.

WHAT IS SPINAL KYPHOSIS?

Spinal kyphosis does not just affect the thoracic spine. It throws your whole posture out of balance. As Dr. Eric Chu highlighted in a recent case report, when the upper (thoracic) spine bends forward excessively, the neck often compensates by jutting the head forward. (1) This chain reaction leads to 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 valuable. Rather than just covering up the pain or treating a single area, this treatment approach addresses the spine as a linked system. It utilizies gentle, rhythmic spinal stretching and range motion to decompress joints and relieve nerve pressure—without the force of traditional spinal manipulation. We at Moriarty Chiropractic bet you’ll appreciate 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 improved, her pain reduced considerably, and she got back the ability to move more freely—something traditional care hadn’t been able to offer.

One of the most notable things about Cox® Technic is how safe it is for older adults with fragile bones. Its slow, controlled method avoids the risks of more foreceful approaches, making it a smart alternative for those who have osteoporosis or are in 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 bringing back better alignment and relieving pressure, it helps patients move better, feel stronger, and regain confidence in their bodies.

For anyone battling spinal kyphosis and its side effects, Nashua chiropractic care with Cox® Technic might be the key to unlocking a more comfortable, active life.
