Dr. Kruse...Teaching with Dr. James Cox


Dr. Ralph Kruse is honored to be instructing side-by-side with Dr. James Cox at the National University of Health Sciences, in Lombard, Illinois on November 15-17, 2013. Dr. Cox, developer of Cox® Technic Flexion-Distraction & Decompression Spinal Manipulation and Dr. Kruse will be teaching Part II which is an 18 hour course on how Cox® Technic is applied and integrated into a clinical practice. There is a written and practical examination for those seeking certification.

This weekend builds upon the knowledge learned from Part I and includes the discussion of spine pain conditions with a focus on disc-related conditions and spinal stenosis. Everyone will have the opportunity to use a pressure transducer which is an objective tool that really fine tunes the application of the protocols while teaching the pressure to apply to the spine during the adjustment. This weekend highlights the evidence-based protocols based on research-documented biomechanical effects and clinical outcomes. For nearly 50 years, Dr. James Cox, documented the effects and clinical outcomes from a clinician's perspective, but starting 1991 when the US government started funding chiropractic research and Dr. Ram Gudavalli joined Dr. Cox, the research abilities really started to be interdisciplinary and more complex. This weekend course is a mix of this research and clinical application for attendee implementation.

The treatment of back and leg pain caused by spinal stenosis and disc herniation of the cervical, thoracic and lumbar spines as well as treatment of patients having undergone spinal surgery will also be presented. Attendees will learn the mechanism, diagnosis and treatment by Cox® Technic Flexion Distraction and Decompression Spinal Manipulation for back and neck pain caused by many of the most difficult to treat spinal conditions. The most recent scientific and evidence-based research will be discussed including Dr. Kruse's participation in a ground-breaking study performed at Loyola Stritch School of Medicine. Dr. Kruse helps with hands-on demonstration of technique and will be one of the examiners to certify a new group of Chiropractors in Cox Flexion Distraction Manipulation, one of the most researched and outcome driven spinal adjusting in chiropractic today.
