The Science-Backed Solution for St Peters Chronic Neck Pain

October 07, 2025

If you're one of the millions dealing with St Peters neck pain, you know how it can ruin your whole day. Simple things like checking your blind spot while in your car trying to get somewhere or getting comfortable at your desk become exercises in discomfort. The good news? There's a gentle, research-[[documentedlbacked]16] solution that might be exactly what you want.

WHAT MAKES COX® TECHNIC DIFFERENT?

Cox® Flexion-Distraction is a specialized chiropractic approach that utilizes a uniquely designed table to gently stretch and decompress your spine. Different from the "crack and pop" adjustments you might imagine, this way of treating is very gentle—visualize therapeutic stretching rather than forceful manipulation.

The evidence speaks for itself. In a documented case study, a 64-year-old man suffering from a cervical disc herniation with left foraminal narrowing underwent Cox® cervical spine flexion-distraction treatment. After just 12 visits over four weeks, he reported 90% less pain intensity and significant improvements in neck mobility and daily function. Even more impressive? These gains were maintained at his three-month follow-up. (1) Old Mill Chiropractic aims to help you get this type of improvement.

THE SAFETY QUESTION

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

DOES MANIPULATION REALLY WORK?

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